Concert Cast: A Travel Series Exploring Concert Culture

Join Kyle for a backstage tour of the historic Orpheum Theatre, where she uncovers wild tales from its storied past—like the unforgettable night Umphrey’s McGee rocked so hard they blew out the lights. Just a block away, the legendary Hotel Monte Vista becomes her home base (and yes, they offer discounted long-term rates).

During her stay in the Michael Stipe and Bing Crosby rooms, Kyle connects with Lindsay, a local artist and fron...

"Wild" is a 6-song musical journey featuring everything from a heart-pounding love song dedicated to Nashville's hottest queer bar to what might be the most joyful and liberating break-up song you'll ever hear. The album peaks with a homage to gay musicians who inspired the band, evolving into its own queer anthem guaranteed to get you dancing and leave you humming, "I think that I just got more gay."

Kyle's bond with the band dates...

Hi, I'm Kyle Lamont, your host and wow, I had the incredible opportunity to spend time with Lena, the lead singer of GoldenOak, in her cozy she-shed as she prepared for her headlining performance at the Under the Oaks Music Festival in Western Maine. Known for her unique and stylish outfits, Lena walked me through her pre-show routine, sharing intimate details of how her fashion choices intertwine with her music. But it wasn't all ...

Push play for a tour of Happy Top, a one-of-a-kind B&B in Athens, Georgia that's also an analog performance space and recording studio. You'll hear the origin story, the approach to the vintage decoration and design (there's a piano in every room. Literally.), and how owner T.S. Woodward created a signal flow speaker system, giving each room a different audio flavor. Plus, an authentic perspective on why Athens has such a special m...

My interview with Austin City Limits photographer Scott Newton took a surprising turn. While discussing my indie music video shot in a Maine lighthouse, I found myself opening up about creative doubts. Scott's wisdom transformed our interview into an unexpected pep talk. His words were deeply moving and motivational, and I hope they resonate with you as powerfully as they did with me. 

I'm Kyle Lamont, host of Concert Cast. Thank yo...

I'm on location, finger up, hanging out with other miracle ticket seekers outside the venue. But the quest doesn't stop there. I take you all over Vegas to talk with dedicated fans (and haters too) at Phish webcast gatherings, after-parties, in nitrous alley, and during Uber rides. You'll hear real-time reviews and reactions from Phish fans moments after the show, the lengths people went to get a miracle ticket (like trading a goat...

Haley and Spencer (76th Street) aren’t just an anthemic pop band with millions of TikTok followers - their music is rooted in a friendship as tight as their harmonies and in  our new rockumentary podcast, we take a prismatic look at the power of friendship. This episode is about empowerment. It's about being there for each other. It’s about love, heartache, sexuality, and the sacred moments that make for musical lyrics.

Join host Ky...

Join me as I shadow Haley and Spencer around Nashville's songwriting circuit and capture their conversations about love, sexuality, friendship and stories behind their memorable lyrics. Trust me, what happens off-stage is just as electrifying as what happens on it.

Salt Lake City has a strange reputation. When Kyle Lamont peels back the stereotypes however, she finds that the city’s concert culture is creative, edgy and kind. We will go from salt flats to velvet curtains, passing through local nerd caves. We will hang out with Travis Bone, a world renowned illustrator, and hear his surprising process when designing a concert poster. We will meet up with Will Sartain, the co-owner of the Urban...

Journey to The Loft in Boston, a DIY artist rehearsal and performance space that serves as a sanctuary for experimental sounds. We'll shadow Audrey Ryan, the venue's owner (a talented musician herself), during her preparations and performance for the concert and spend time with a group of Boston bohemians to gain insight into the significance and preciousness of this venue in a city that is grappling with the loss of artist spaces.

Heartbreak is a regenerative journey that takes you down many emotional paths. Depression, displacement—for me, denial that I would ever want to be in love again.

And during each stage of the process, the perfect song would seem to serendipitously appear and like a lyrical blanket, insulate my cold heart.

Starting with Carol King lamenting, "It's too Late," transitioning into Little Dragon’s, “No Love.” Then it was Peter Tosh bellowi...
