Because Songs Matter
McDougall is one of those guys who I’ve always liked and who’s hung out on the periphery of my regular rotation due to some reason or another. He’s one of those artists that I’ve really and truly enjoyed in smaller doses but never really inspired a binge of listening to an album over and over … Continue reading “McDougall – Reaching for Some Light”
News of a new McDougall record is big news around these parts. We’ve written about him multiple times (here and here) and he’s been played on both radio shows. A one-man band that alternates between guitar and six-string banjo with heavy doses of bass drum and hi-hat mixed in, McDougall’s true talent doesn’t come from … Continue reading “McDougall – Self Titled”
McDougall is no stranger to regular readers of Nine Bullets. He’s a unique musician who makes his living as a one man band out on the road. His old tour Explorer is dying and instead of asking for money for a funeral he’s seeking to raise money for a new ride. He’s got some really … Continue reading “McDOUGALL IS RAISING MONEY FOR A NEW TOUR VEHICLE:”
If you’ve read Nine Bullets at all in the last year or so there’s no doubt you’ve heard the name McDougall. He’s a favorite of several of the writers, myself included, yet because he lives in the Pacific Northwest the chances to see him live are few and far between. Or nonexistent. Last night I drove … Continue reading “THE ROCK REPORT: McDOUGALL AT SOME STRIP MALL IN DENVER”
Real Talk: With 100% certainty, I will pee in the pool. I will fart in the grocery store and take pleasure in watching people react. I do not like Wilco, Son Volt, Ryan Adams or The Beatles. I have not been as excited about finding a new artist as I am about McDougall since the … Continue reading “MORE ON THE MCDOUGALL SITUATION”
You just can’t go wrong with a musician sporting a serious beard. Just look at Otis Gibbs. Or the dudes in ZZ-Top. When the beard issue is brought up, our man Rune says, “I guess it’s part envy on my part, I’ve been wanting one all my life and it turns out I can not … Continue reading “MCDOUGALL – A FEW TOWNS MORE”
We’re so close! Four week’s in and the show almost “feels” live. I think I’ll nail it this week. Also, lot’s a requests came in this week and I managed to mix a lot of them into the show! Look, I know last night was a bummer but you know what? Music heals and I … Continue reading “[Playlist] Ninebullets Radio – 11.09.2016 – 88.5FM HD2 WMNF Tampa”
Sorry for the late publication of the last show’s playlist but I have been out dodging dead deer on I-65. Better than never though. Am I right. So, here is Wednesday’s playlist on Friday. So, have a couple of sad hours before heading out to happy hour. Below is the playlist for November 02, 2016 … Continue reading “[Playlist] Ninebullets Radio – 11.02.2016 – 88.5FM HD2 WMNF Tampa”

So, if me playing songs for you while kvetching about my shitty love life sounds like a good way to spend to hours to you then give the latest show an ear. Below is … Continue reading “[Playlist] Ninebullets Radio – 10.26.2016 – 88.5FM HD2 WMNF Tampa”
Dark Folk? Heavy Folk? Stoner Folk? Sludge Folk? I’m not entirely sure how to define the Marching Suns but I do know it falls somewhere in the spectrum of the terms above. Marching Suns are the brain child of 9b fave Scott McDougall, Ezra Meredith of Hearts Of Oak and Mark Folkrod of The Dead … Continue reading “Marching Suns – Marching Suns – 2015”
