AMPLIFYING WISCONSIN MUSICIANS WMPodcast interviews local Wisconsin musicians on their journey from their first group, solo endeavor, hired studio work, local community groups, and more, to their present day activities in the local music scene. We will also talk with music businesses and music organizations. We’ll talk about their origin story, what their influences are, what they do to hone their talents and their skills to be where they are today. What they feel is not only suffocating the local music scene, but, better yet, what they feel is helping push the local scene into the limelight. Also hear about gigs they’ve played that made an impression on them and why. . . and much more.

EPISODE 105
Parker Sweeney of
SHOOBIE
Starting as a solo project in 2017, playing surf rock riffs and jamming on a drum kit stored in a closet in the bedroom of Parker’s first apartment, he would write songs between classes in college. After meeting at a birthday party Ethan and Parker would meet in Ethan’s basement writing and learning music together. After leaving his drum kit at Ethan’s, Parker decided to move in and they began the writing of their first EP “You Shoulda’ Been There” in 2018. At an art exhibition Shoobie was performing, Ethan and Parker met Leah who performed before them.
Leah approached Shoobie after the show and became the third addition to the group. Originally on bass Leah filled the gaps in the sound. After the release of the EP Parker met soon to be bass player Nick on campus. As Leah switched to lead guitar and Nick assumed his position at bass
the complete line up of Shoobie for the release of “A Strange Time To Be Alive” in 2019 and their first LP with the help of Isaac Lamers on a second drum kit “Gunk” in 2020 was complete. With the recent addition of synth/key player Nick M. Shoobie prepares for their next release coming in
2022.
