🎙️ Riffs & Rhythms Podcast – Official Podcast of the Treasure Coast Blues Society
The Riffs and Rhythms Podcast welcomes back our good friends Sweet Release for a second round of unfiltered laughs, deep conversations, and killer music talk. With Johnny Frozone, Brian “Red Shoes,” Joe “Chicken Man,” and Trey holding down the low end, the band dives into their history, chemistry, and what makes their live shows unforgettable.
But this episode goes way beyond the jokes and road stories. We take a serious look at the rise of AI in music — from writing songs to recreating voices — and debate what it means for the future of artistry. Can technology ever replace the soul of live performance? Sweet Release shares their unfiltered thoughts while keeping it raw, real, and hilarious.
🎶 Highlights in this episode:
- The band’s rotating lineup and hilarious nicknames (Stray Trey, anyone?)
- Stories from their earliest gigs, drum machines, and “the good old days”
- A fiery debate on AI, artistry, and whether live music can ever be replaced
- Johnny’s wild tales (including the infamous “sex doll” and action figure story 👀)
- Why human connection will always win over machines
- A Riffs vs. Rhythms review of South Florida band Exigent and their track “Second Wind” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_RSW43uxhM&list=RDY_RSW43uxhM&start_radio=1
🔥 Whether you’re here for the music, the mayhem, or the candid banter, this episode is packed with laughs, insights, and the undeniable energy that makes Sweet Release one of Florida’s most talked-about bands.
👇 Drop your thoughts in the comments: Can AI ever replace live music? Or is the human connection unbeatable?
