On this episode of the St. Andrews Jezebel podcast, host Ashley Feller sits down with Scott Rockwood and Matt Miller from the Cosmic Rascals. They discuss the origins of their band name, the unique environment that helped shape their sound while recording their album Arcadia at Sawhorse Studios in St. Louis, and the decision to release a full album in a world dominated by singles. Here are three main highlights from the episode:Sonic Stardust: Unveiling Arcadia with the Cosmic Rascals
  • The Cosmic Rascals describe their music as a blend of spirituality and mischievousness, and explain how their name reflects this philosophy.
  • Sawhorse Studios, hidden away in South City, helped create a cozy and creative environment for the band to record in, with lots of eclectic decor and great sound treatments.
  • Despite the industry's focus on singles, The Cosmic Rascals decided to release a full album because it allowed them to provide their own context and framework around the music, and harkened back to the days of listening to an album start to finish.
Check out The Cosmic Rascals and their album Arcadia for a unique and captivating musical experience.
