Human Beings Let You Down (Track-By-Track Commentary)

*** TICKETS FOR AUGUST 1 LIVESTREAM CONCERT *** Dwight will be taking a break from the podcast because he’s over hearing himself talk at the moment, and he’d like to focus on The Wind and The Wave’s new group of songs. Patty recorded vocals on the 7 rough demos to share with Patreon supporters very soon! New tunes with Kelly Jones may be trickling out around December/January. Assuming it would be safe by Summer 2021, we’d love to do some festivals here and overseas with this new project. What’s with country music performers doing real shows right now? That doesn’t seem safe. The drive-in show format seems cool, but packed venues where crowds of people aren’t wearing masks is irresponsible, and selfish. We all want to do shows, and we’re all here for our fans. It’s just too early for shows. In Texas, virus cases are rising like crazy.Leave a review wherever you listen to this podcast. If you’e got specific questions or thoughts about the Human Beings Let You Down album or any of those songs, send an email to thedwightandpattyshow@gmail.com for the next track-by-track commentary. Consider becoming a supporter on Patreon for juicy treats like unreleased demos, early access to final versions of new songs, discount codes to our online merchandise store and more!

Happiness Is Not A Place (Track-By-Track Commentary)

Redlining is fascinating and terrible. Oprah is the exception to the rule. Responding to peaceful protests against police brutality with police brutality is moronic. Dwight’s mom sent him the Peace Prayer of Saint Francis. Patty has been doing video calls with the vinyl bundle purchasers. Music collaborations and how that works. Bob Schneider said some really nice things about Patty. Aw! Check out Lonnie’s band South Austin Moonlighters and their new Patreon page for some upcoming videos!

#SaveOurStages

Patty is having internet troubles. Future Islands' performance on David Letterman in 2014 is epic. It’s a good reminder how important music is to all of us, and how powerful it can be. Camm Wess, a contestant on The Voice, sang a cover of Kacey Musgraves’ song “Rainbow,” and it brought Patty to tears. Thank you to Janine and Scott in Baltimore for their new patronage on Patreon! Dwight compliments Patty’s other podcast, The Feelings Club. A new demo from Dwight is inspiring Patty. Touring gives Dwight clarity of purpose, but Dwight has enjoyed spending a significant amount of time at home with his family during lockdown. So much of success is not giving up. Take Portugal The Man, for example. They had a decent mid level career in music for several years before stumbling into one of the biggest songs of the last 20 years. Patty recommends the National Geographic show, ‘One Strange Rock.’ We’re lucky an asteroid hasn’t blown us up. Are aliens big bad motherfuckers, or are they slugs? Patty received an edible arrangement from Dwight and his wife for her birthday. Tattoos! Does Patty have any tricks to recover from mistakes during a live performance? What does she do if she feels like a particular song is going to hit her like a ton of bricks?The next live stream is THIS Saturday, May 23rd. Dwight and Patty will be performing The Wind + The Wave's entire first record ‘From The Wreckage’ from top to bottom, acoustically at 3pm and 7pm CDT.  Purchase tickets here!We need more emails, reviews and referrals.

Dwight shares an IG post from therapist @alexicrockley that reminds Patty of Esther Perel’s thoughts about anxiety and creativity. Patty wore a thong bikini for the first time.

Patty Talks Pesto, Thongs & SIMS

Patty’s new favorite thing is the hammock in her backyard. Dwight’s dad is nearing the end of his life. He shares about his experience taking family photos at the University of Houston Football field last weekend. Mr. Baker Senior calls for track coach, Leroy Burrell. They’ve been friends for a long time. He happened to be right around the corner and came over immediately. Dwight listens in on the interaction between them and totally loses it. The way you feel about your parents. Seeing a person through your own lense. The black cloud over Dwight. Patty’s mom visited last week. Dwight tries to be the same person to everyone in his life. The Feelings Club Podcast Episode 1 comes out tomorrow! The new songs are sounding like they’re going to be part of a guitar driven album for The Wind and The Wave. Patty’s new neighbor is a drummer and plays with Rufas Wainwright and Jade Bird. Congrats to Patty on her recent sync with Erin McCarley and Konrad Snyder!

Send More Dwight Memes

Thanks to new patrons Amanda and Tes! Dwight finally tried Bird Bird Biscuit in Austin. Thank God for Johnny. Bachelorette Edition game of Guess Who? David's look is Charlie Manson Chic. You can learn anything on YouTube. What is Dwight like as a boss? David likes the "bad days" in the studio because they usually lead to good stuff when writing. How did Dwight end up writing with Missio? David's thoughts on the Missio documentary. He's so good at being present in the studio. Perhaps his practice with yoga and meditation have helped, the way they have with anxious mental loops. David has been very susceptible to inflammation and back pain ever since he broke his neck in 2003. Unlike his bandmate, David does not have an exceptional relationship with therapy. Dwight's experience with EMDR. Kevin Abstract, and deepening relationships though songwriting. Dwight's challenge with Patty is getting her to write about joy. David says the new Missio record is diverse in its instrumentation, and he's proud of the songs' messages. Patty says it's going to hit people in the feels. She bawled when she heard it. The Wind and The Wave LIVE STREAM CONCERT is THIS SATURDAY, April 25 at 3pm CST. This is a way for Dwight and Patty to make some money while they can't tour. PURCHASE A TICKET! Consider becoming a Patreon supporter, send an email to thedwightandpattyshow@gmail.com, leave us a review and follow the show on Instagram.

Dark And Stormy (David Butler)

Dwight and Patty are joined by Matt from Missio. Marriage. Anxiety. Matt's foundation in, and struggle with questioning a longstanding religious faith. Zoom poses some technical issues. Touring might not happen again until 2021. Matt misses going to the barber. Dwight and Patty were a little uncomfortable talking about Matt's sobriety in the previous episode with Jeff Ray. Therapy is a game-changer. The making of the new Missio record, and how it’s different sonically and lyrically. Matt believes that people grow from honesty. Cherry-picking the Bible, Heaven, Hell and religious trauma.Join The Wind and The Wave for their live stream concert Saturday, April 25 at 3pm CST.

I Don't Have To Fix Myself (Matt Brue)

Dwight trashed a song, and found his way on another. He has to create things that make him feel good right now. Patty was feeling down about her performance on The Feelings Club Podcast Episode 1. Dwight scores it a B minus, and offers some advice. They are then joined by writer/director/editor, Jeff Ray. Jeff's early work with The Wind and The Wave was a launching point for his career. Dwight is a master manipulator, AKA a lovable asshole. Reminiscing about the making of The Marfa Takes. How the concept for the Grand Canyon music video went from Braveheart to a two person pillow fight. Jeff met his girlfriend on the set of that music video! (Side bar: Jeff's girlfriend is actress Kelsey Pribilski, host of Gawkward Podcast.) Missio's documentary 'Love Me Whole'. Alcoholism, sobriety, and YouTube comments. Good interviews. Dwight's relationship with Matt and David. Working within the confines of the major label system and maintaining authenticity as an artist. Dwight's monologue provides Jeff with a healthy perspective about his own career and Patty's takeaway from the film was very positive. Jeff started therapy six months ago. (Yay!) He  has a new project and wants to collaborate with The Wind and The Wave on it. (Yay!) The Rescue Me EP, and the writing process. Jeff thinks Patty is one of the best lyricists EVER!!! So much mutual respect here, seriously.Please review us wherever you listen to podcasts. Send us an email to thedwightandpattyshow@gmail.com. Consider supporting the show on Patreon.

Love Me Whole (Jeff Ray)

Dwight prefers Patty with long hair, but she makes a good Narc! Dwight gets yelled at. The outside world is matching how Patty feels on the inside all the time. Dwight is in a bad mood. Kids need to hang out with their friends. Dwight’s wife is soaking up the sun and doing all the yard work to manage stress. Corona can suck a dick. Relationships are about compromise. Is it the cludio or the stoset…or the stuset? The Wind and The Wave is FOUR songs in on the new record. Patty hid the Easter eggs for the first time. The show, Ozark is dark, but Patty loves it. The ‘Feel Good Indie Rock’ Spotify playlist is hitting Dwight in all the right spots. Bands we’ve never heard of like Sure Sure and Fruit Bats. A remix of Manchester Orchestra’s “The Gold.” It’s also got the awesome Brittany Howard, some French Cassettes, Winnetka Bowling League, this rad chic named Caroline Rose, Mount Joy, Ages and Ages, Goth Babe… Dwight was going down a 90s music rabbit hold, when a Youtube comment on an Everclear music video moved him. Reading it again made him teary eyed. Patty’s neck and shoulder has been hurting. Mobility exercises and CBD products have been helping, but she's looking forward to the next massage. Patty is checking in with her doctor virtually this week. She’s NOT pregnant, but her sister is. We have a new Patron! The Wind and The Wave is thinking about doing a Feelings Club virtual show from the “cludio” in a couple weeks. Patty still hasn’t watched Missio’s documentary ‘Love Me Whole.’ It’s more fun to play for giant crowds. Dwight would not feel successful if he could not support his family doing the things he loves. Patty ends with a quote from Elizabeth Gilbert’s book Big Magic.Please leave us a review wherever you listen to this podcast.
