Garageland Radio: Episode One Remastered
Episode 1
Wednesday, 1 January, 2025
In this remastered first episode of Garageland Radio, we dive into the raw and unpolished beginnings of the show, capturing the spirit of the local SoCal music community in Fall 2015. Featuring bands like The Red Pears, Beach Bums, and more, the episode reflects the DIY spirit of backyard shows, where proximity to the bands and the community made the experience unforgettable. From name-dropping local hotspots to spontaneous humor, this episode embodies the energy and excitement of starting something new. Revisiting this episode reminded us of our early intentions to spotlight the rich culture of Southern California, from its music to its food and beyond. While some segments—like burrito spot shoutouts—didn’t stick, others, like our focus on local bands and geography, became a hallmark of Garageland. This remastered version offers a polished yet nostalgic glimpse into the heart of what made those early days special, with all their imperfections and charm.
