Long-time listeners of Roots Music Rambler will recognize the name of the band Sparkle Carcass. They happen to be one of Francesca Folinazzo’s favorite Chicago-based bands she sees play live frequently. And to their credit, they are well-known in the windy city as an alt-country, dive bar sorta crew. Well, Cody Palmer and crew today…
A new episode of Roots Music Rambler drops tomorrow! (Yeah, we’ve kinda shifted to weekly because we’ve been talking to so many great artists lately!)
Tomorrow, we get to know Sparkle Carcass, or at least frontman Cody Palmer. He takes us through how the band got its name, his songwriting process and talks about the band’s brand new album (drops tomorrow, too) called Maraschino Chevy.
We asked Cody to take us through his musical influences in this clip. Which wound up being more diverse than anyone would expect.
