Session - Drunken Hearts

About this episode

Coming back to you from the dungeon for a brand-new What’s The Reason For This Session — and this week we’re joined by Colorado’s own Drunken Hearts for a raw, funny, and beautifully heartfelt hang. 🎙️✨🍻

The band kicks things off with “The Other Side,” a newly released song written in tribute to founding member Ted Wells, featuring Bonnie Sims on mandolin and harmony vocals. ❤️🎻 From there, we dig into stories behind the music, including the origin of “Sacred Ground,” a fresh (and not-yet-recorded) gem gifted by Nashville songwriter/producer Dave Pahanish. 🌿🎶🤝

They keep the energy rolling with the road-trip-born “Dean Moriarty’s Blues,” channeling Kerouac-era wanderlust and early-days songwriting spirit 🚐🛣️📖, before closing out the session with a raucous, crowd-pleasing cover of Pearl Jam’s “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town.” 🤘🔥🎸 Expect big harmonies, dusty-boot storytelling, and plenty of basement-studio chaos in the best way. 🥾🌾🎤😄
