Episode 3: The Barons, The Brother, and The Satellite in Episode 3 of the Backstage Guru

In this episode, The Guru digs deep into the tracks that aren't just making noise - they’re making a mark. We travel from the high-voltage streets of Sweden to the soulful grit of Cincinnati, while pausing to pay tribute to a fallen giant of the riff. Barons of Linköping: Why Sweden’s Märvel is one of the best-kept secrets in melodic high-energy rock ‘n’ roll. The Trailblazer: A look back at catching The Afghan Whigs live in London and why Greg Dulli remains one of the most dangerous frontmen in the game. A Tribute to the Brother: Saluting the late, great Brent Hinds. We touch on the "surfabilly" chaos and the progressive soul he brought to Mastodon and beyond. The Satellite is Orbiting: Exploring the "retro-fresh" masterclass that is One More Satellite (Dean DeLeo & Pete Shoulder).
