It’s a new year and I’m ready with my favorite playlists to hit the road and get my long-awaited live music fix…but wait, not quite yet. Omicron beats me to the venues and sends me off course. Searching for an ember of music in a strangely quiet Athens, Georgia, I stumble upon a freak folk soundscape at Flicker Theater & Bar. Childlike wonder takes over as I’m bewitched by the wild sights and sounds of Cookie Tongue. This truly bonus episode will introduce you to Omer Gal, Cookie Tongue’s creator. He is also a stop motion video maker, puppeteer and simply fascinating. And you’ll meet a mouse; that’s a Concert Cast first! In between sets, we talk with Adam Wayton, the talent buyer at Flicker Theater who is also in a band called The Pink Stones. He talks about his approach to booking and we hear why Athens is such a popular music town. When you are on the other side of this episode, we hope you’ll be inspired to turn off your overly-played favorites and listen for something new.Concert Cast:  A Woman-Owned Rockumentary Podcast Network Created and hosted by Kyle Lamont, Concert Cast explores Concert Culture through energetic music journalism. Lamont's informed questions, personal anecdotes, and curated local music soundtracks connect listeners with their favorite musicians and iconic venues, offering a unique perspective on the live music experience, earning a Spotify Editor's Pick recognition in 2022.
