Mars Jptr interviews The Forgotten Jam, featuring two songs from their debut tape and a live recording of "Two Jobs" recorded at their show at Out of the Blue Too Art Gallery & More. The conversation goes from living in DIY "Show Houses", their deep and sometimes mystical music roots and even one band member joining a circus!

Another track I recorded back home in Oswego over the winter of 2017-2018.

This one's a lot more of a rocker than Natural Trend. I hope you dig! 

It was completely written/recorded in my bedroom in Oswego. It's very much a studio creation, though it's one of the more arena rock-sounding tracks I've ever recorded. It's the sound of me getting comfortable with the recording software and seeing what I could do, creating a whole song from scratch using the software as a jumping off point instead of the other way around.

It's amazing how your instincts can work to create something more honest than what you mind consciously create when filtering your ideas through what you want them to be. This song rings at least as true for me as Natural Trend, when that song was written and refined over a period of several years, whereas this one was mostly written and recorded within 24 hours.
