What are bands that never released an album but were still great? I’ll start: C Average

This Thursday we’ll be at the Montrose Saloon in Chicago with @philipayates and Black Cat Heart Attack. BTW we’re Da Pope’s favorite band.

Da Pope available now on the High Watt shop highwattshop.etsy.com/listing/430332…

I think something weird is happening. Ask your Alexa or Siri (or both) to play Matt Derda & the High Watts and let me know what happens. Are you hearing that weird thing too?

I know we're supposed to shop at independent record stores and what not, but some people are on a budget. I just thought I should share that Amazon has Tyler Childer's Country Squire for $13.94. amzn.to/3ZJOw8u

I did have the Trump Musk feud on my 2025 bingo card

Let’s pretend like his dumb parade never even happened. Don’t share pictures or video of it. Give it zero attention. That will piss him off. Share No Kings Day protest pics/vids or pope content instead.

Seems like a good day to share our music video for Bad Day (Gettin Worse) youtu.be/ZJF_mORvzQQ?si…

I’ll be performing at the Wheaton Library as a part of Make Music Day. Come by the library from 3:30-4:30 for a good time. We’ll sing songs and then read some banned books.

No, you don’t like Tucker Carlson now. He’s still a turd. Charles Manson liked root beer and I like root beer. Just because I agreed with Charles Manson on one thing doesn’t make me like him. There is this thing called nuance people. It’s not all or nothing on everything.

Easily

That last set! Wow! Secret Monkey Weekend - So Much Joy, Matt Derda & the High Watts - Bad Day (Getting Worse), Tamar Berk - That's Not A Lie, Mando McPickin' - The Seed

The Weight - Matt Derda & the High Watts w/Jeffrey Brower - YouTube Matt and I became friends because we both understand the genius of ⁦High on Stress (MPLS Rock n Roll)⁩ ⁦Matt Derda & the High Watts⁩ youtube.com/watch?v=RMvfAL…

If you claim there are only he/him and she/her pronouns, then aren't those you're preferred pronouns? See, you do understand.

It’s Bandcamp Friday. If you don’t buy our music today I’ll just assume you’re a Morgan Wallen fan.
