Walls of Sound

music, interviews · EN

Walls of Sound is an insider’s look at the hidden world of music venues—their history, inner workings, personalities, and cultural weight. Hosted by musician, writer, and entrepreneur Brian Teasley, who has played and recorded with Man or Astro-man?, The Polyphonic Spree, and St. Vincent—and who founded Birmingham’s Bottletree and now runs Saturn—and Ryan Murphy, who helped transform the St. Augustine Amphitheatre and now leads The Orion Amphitheater with venue group tvg, the podcast pulls from decades of firsthand experience. Together, they’ve built, booked, and played just about every kind of venue out there. Walls of Sound peels back the layers on how these places come to be, what keeps them alive, and why they matter more than most people realize. If you’ve ever stood in a room and felt the history in the floorboards, this show is for you.
