NEM#258: Dan Montgomery: Direct Communication
Sunday, 9 August, 2026
Dan was Ben Vaughn’s sound-man and released his first solo album of Americana rock in 2004. We discuss “Busted” from his eighth album (produced by Vaughn), the just Dan-and-his guitar effort Dispatches from the Desert, then “Beaumont” from Cast-Iron Songs and Torch Ballads (2023), “Favorite Color” from Rosetta, Please (A Love Story) (2006). End song: “Lookin’ for a Fight” also from the new album. Intro: “Always” from Man from Out of State (2004). More at danmontgomery.bandcamp.com. Hear all of “Always,” and a couple of the drug songs we refer to near the beginning: “Phenobarbiedoll” and “Crack Home.” See Dan’s full, recent band live, and again here. See him play live as an acoustic duo. Here he is live 17 years ago. Hear his early band Drugs Before Breakfast. Hear more Nakedly Examined Music at nakedlyexaminedmusic.com.
