    Unearthing The Nest: Jeannie Piersol’s Lost Psychedelic Gem
    Sep 11 2025
    EPYSODE 52: "The Nest" by Jeannie Piersol. Guests: Jeannie Piersol, Alec Palao. Additional commentary by: Uncle Herff. Here we explore the story behind "The Nest", a 2025 release showcasing the mesmerizing recordings of Jeannie Piersol, a once-overlooked voice from the late '60s Bay Area scene. While never released as a full album at the time, these tracks — produced during a brief but creatively rich period, have been carefully compiled and reissued for the first time. We're joined by Jeannie Piersol herself, along with music historian Alec Palao, for an exclusive conversation about the music’s origins, the vibrant scene that shaped it, and the process of curating "The Nest" nearly six decades later. Discover how these long-shelved recordings finally found their moment, and why it's being hailed as a hidden gem of psychedelic soul and folk-pop history.
