TOUCHDOWNS ALL DAY w/ JON BARBER & MAX DAWSON.

E073 - Country Royale - On August 29, 2024 the Disco Biscuits debuted "Country Royale," the latest in a long string of collaborations between the band and lyricist Joey Friedman. In this episode of the podcast, keyboardist Aron Magner, Joey, and Max trace the song's long journey from its conception last January through its first live performance in Chicago. You'll hear the earliest instrumental loop, an initial incarnation called "The King and Queen of New Jersey," Joey's vocal demoes, and snippets of backstage rehearsals, culminating with Aron's analysis of the song's live debut.
