BingBong’s Hip Eponymous is Live in the Lair on Max Ink Radio

Welcome to Wisconsin's local music scene.

This is Max Inc. Radio.

We are local music.

Jimmy, we are live in the air.

Bing Bong is a multi-award winning band based in Madison, fronted by singer, guitarist,

and songwriter Pam Barrett.

Pam is joined by guitarist Danny Hicks, bassist Julie Keeland, and drummer Brian Bentley.

Born in 2012, Bing Bong didn't release their first album until 2018, and their sophomore

release, Live with the Dojo, was recorded in front of a small group of friends that was

kind of, I think, Pandemic era.

And then the new album, Hippie Ponomis, is released earlier this month in a single released

earlier, Clear Blue Sky, won the Mama Award for overall song of the year.

That's what we were there, and we were just, woo for you guys, way to go, way to go.

Tonight, Bing Bong is here to perform Live in the air on Max Inc. Radio.

Pam, Danny, Julie, Brian, welcome to Max Inc. Radio.

Thank you.

Yay!

This is awesome.

We've had this Saturday circled on the Max Inc.

layer calendar for quite some time.

Absolutely.

Wow.

Wow.

It is here.

It is here.

Figure out what happens next.

I'm overjoyed weekly.

So, I didn't even know what Bing Bong was, right?

That was one and what it was.

And right away, some of the younger people that I know, they knew what it was, right away,

is Bing Bong an elephant?

Well, we aren't.

We are sometimes Packaderm like, but no.

Actually, the name that we came up with was around maybe the same time as the elephant,

but we really had no idea the elephant.

Really?

At the time.

We had nothing to do with it, but people think, oh, it's the elephant.

Other people think, oh, you guys are a jam band that really gets into smoking a lot,

because it's a boring part of it, and so people really don't, when they hear us, they're

like, what?

Really?

Well, so no matter what, though, it's the elephant in the room.

It is.

Oh, nice.

It's hardly any room to move around in this video, like hell.

Is there a Bong?

That's what I say.

Is there a Bong?

That's what I think.

I think a Ding Dong ditch.

But it's Bing Bong.

Oh, wait.

Let's move on.

Oh, wow.

Okay.

You can have fun with this name, right?

Exactly.

Bing Bong is a band, formed in 2012, tell us how Bing Bong got its start.

Well, it was actually Danny over there was stalking me at the time, because we had actually

met many years ago when we were in different bands.

We did a fundraiser, his band and my band did a fundraiser together, and then he got this

wild and crazy idea that we should get together and form a band around the idea of doing rock

pile-esque songs.

So, if you remember the old English band, rock pile with Nick Lowe and David Mons and Terry

Williams and Bremen.

Bremen.

Yeah, yeah.

Billy Bremen.

And we sound absolutely nothing like them.

Pretty awesome.

Inspired by rock pile.

Yeah, exactly.

That is awesome.

So, it took you guys six years to release your first album.

That's a really long brew.

I mean, a lot of bands don't even last more than two years.

Right.

Well.

They put out six albums.

We're kind of slow.

You know, we like to just take it easy and do things right, and I actually don't really

care to record that often, at least.

I really prefer playing live to recording, so it took a little bit to get me into the

studio.

In that six years, you were doing a lot of shows, getting out of the center around the

area.

So, you really were able to capture and gain a lot of fans, ripping-bong.

Right.

Yeah.

Well, you know, and that's what we like.

I mean, it's, we want to be part of the party wherever the party is.

So.

Tonight, the party is in the lair.

It is.

It is.

Well, you know, it's crazy that you say that you don't like to record, but you guys have

one.

Let's see.

Six times song of the year for the mamas performing the year three times, so you like

to play live.

But when you go and record in the studio, you guys win awards.

It's a great caution.

What does it mean to you to be recognized in such a way?

Well, I think the first thing to remember is that the mamas exists for a charitable reason.

The musical is missing hands of kids.

Exactly.

Exactly.

So, I mean, that's the, you know, the primary thing.

It is nice to be recognized by your peers.

But, you know, the important thing is that this, this beast that has grown out of, I

don't know, 15 years, 20 years in, in the making has been really doing great work this whole

time for, for charity, for getting kids music education.

Yep.

A grade.

Describe, since with the rewards, though, obviously you have a big fan base.

And, you know, people want to see Bingbong if they're involved in the Madison music scene

here.

You're a fan.

Who's your quintessential Bingbong fan?

Oh, Janice Lafford.

Oh.

Well, I've always joke that, that my demographic is a 16 to 65-year-old white male.

Oh, boy.

Oh, yes.

Well, on that note, let's get to live music in the Lair with Madison's Bingbong, presented

by the Aaron Weber group.

The first song you have for us is tonight is from your new album, Hip, Eponymous, and it's

called Control.

Is this in the submissive or dominant sense?

Well, actually, no.

It's about actually lack of control or a feeling of being out of control.

So the submissive.

Okay.

You know.

Okay.

These definitions.

I know.

I know.

We're going to find out.

Right.

We're going to find it.

All right.

All right.

Let's hear it.

This is Control.

Bingbong.

You are listening to Live in the Lair on Maxing Radio.

We are Local Music.

It's got uncomplicated.

At least you won't be bored.

What's that you say to me?

You better stop.

You know you're out of control.

Looks like you've gotten jaded.

Not like you was before.

You turn to me and say you better stop.

You know you're out of control.

You know you can rest in the air.

Take a moment to really think through.

You know you had everything you said.

Do you took that leap of faith?

Miss the legend now you're heading down.

I think I'm going crazy.

Mixed up and not a control.

I know.

I know.

I know I better stop because I'm out of control.

You know you can rest in the air.

Take a moment to really think through.

You know you had everything you said.

Do you took that leap of faith?

Miss the legend now you're heading down.

I know.

You know you can rest in the air.

Take a moment to really think through.

You know you had everything you said.

Do you took that leap of faith?

Miss the legend now you're heading down.

I'm heading down.

I'm heading down.

I'm heading down.

I'm heading down.

It's Bing Bong live.

You're on Max St. Critti.

I appreciate the guitar solo in the middle.

I was pretty.

If you want to be part of the show,

ask some questions or requests for Bing Bong.

I'll go to that 844-967-2789.

844-967-2789.

844-967-2789.

Call or text does directly from the civic media app.

That was their song control off the new album.

I know we're going to be talking about this a little bit.

They've got their album release show coming up in this next week.

We will get to that a little bit later.

I guess it's time to meet the band.

How about it?

Oh, Rocker St. Hold on, Terry.

Well, we were going to fast forward to a little bit more of Bing Bong history

with fast forwarding to live in the Dojo album.

Got it.

Recorded and videoed in front of a small audience.

I remember when that came out.

There was a really kind of unique concept.

Everybody was streaming stuff at that time.

And you put out this live album.

Tell us about this album, Live in the Dojo.

Right.

Well, again, I mentioned that I'm not too fond of just going into a studio and recording.

So with the first album pop restoration, it was all analog.

So it was a lot of sitting in the studio doing things over and over and over again

because you couldn't do punch-ins and overdubs so easily.

Yeah.

So when we were going to do our next album, it was just like,

well, let's do something different where we don't have to sit in the studio.

So we were in the studio, but we brought some of our fans in.

And we had a whole production crew do video of it.

And we played all the songs twice and got some great videos for all the songs

at the same time that we recorded it.

That was in a studio or a venue.

It was in a studio.

But it was in a studio that was in an old warehouse off the first street here in Madison.

So we're first street dead ends.

There's a bunch of old warehouses and Brian Napp actually did our engineering and producing.

And he had a studio space there at the time.

And the sound is so good that he did an excellent job.

Oh my gosh.

Yeah.

We played it on the radio, civic media last night.

Yeah.

It was just a little teaser for you guys.

And even Pete Schwabba during his show, he said,

that's live.

Yeah.

It just sounds so crisp and clean.

Yeah.

How many people were there?

About 25.

About 25.

Yeah.

It was just a private recorded concert.

Yeah.

We wanted enough people there to give us a good feel of a live performance.

But we also didn't want so many people that would maybe stumble over Brian Napp's equipment.

You know, there's always that chance.

Yeah.

All right.

Now we're going to get to know the rest of the band.

We've got Julie Cohen.

Now Julie is the bassist.

I love to watch you play.

You just make it look so much fun.

But tell us about you.

And how did you actually get involved in music?

What made you decide you wanted to play?

You know, both of my parents were into music.

So my mom played piano.

She was a piano teacher.

I didn't learn piano from her.

She was big on not teaching your own kids instruments.

But she taught you in classes.

She did.

She did.

So, and then I ended up playing learning violin.

So the stringed instruments.

And then my dad played guitar.

And then a good friend of mine played guitar.

And I just kind of wanted to learn chords and stuff.

I got a little competitive streak in me.

So I just wanted to, like, like,

oh, if they know all those chords,

I want to know all those chords.

So I just, like, would sit in my room

and I would, like, make myself, like, learn those chords

and be able to do that.

And then, yeah, eventually that just morphed into playing bass somehow.

So, yeah.

And not only bass, but that ass bass.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That guy, it's called a coyote.

Describe this bass because I was looking at it

as, like, prancer or something.

It's actually the brand is Taya,

but the bass is a coyote.

Okay.

And it's a USA-made or, like, handmade bass.

Made in Nashville.

Nice.

Yeah, I have to say that our lead guitarist, Danny,

turned me on to this bass.

He was, he had a couple of guitars by this person.

And he was like, you should check out their basses.

And I did.

And it's just like, wow, this is awesome.

Yeah.

It looks really cool.

It's a very, it's a very unique, yeah.

In addition to playing bass,

you're also doing some backup vocals.

He did an apple song.

Yeah.

So good.

Do you ever front her?

Do you ever lead a song or a lot?

There's a couple of songs.

Like, a couple of, like, covers all lead and stuff.

Yeah, for sure.

I do, I do.

I mean, but I'm definitely, I feel like I'm more comfortable

in, like, a backup.

I spend a lot of time growing in choirs.

Yeah.

That makes sense.

So it does.

So I'm used to singing with, like, a lot of people

and just, and singing sort of, like, a harmony part.

I think one of the first times I heard Bing Bong

that was what hit me right away,

how your voice is blend so coolly together.

And it doesn't even sound like you're on different, like,

octaves or anything like that.

You just are on different keys that are just sounding so cool.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Got it.

Yeah.

Very good stuff.

Well, let's get back to live music in the air with Bing Bong,

presented by the Aaron Weber group.

The next song you have for us tonight, it's called Weep For Me.

Is this a song about going somewhere?

No, actually, it's a really sappy love song.

Oh, a sappy love song.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I love sappy love song.

Have you ever written one before?

Have you ever written one before?

Oh my god.

Are you kidding?

I've got a hold.

I love it.

I love sappy love songs.

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's a weakness.

They don't all come to see the light of day.

Yes, got it.

Yeah.

This one's about just being so enamored with somebody

that you're hoping that you can

live up to how great they are.

And you're basically saying, wait for me.

I'll get there.

Wow.

Give me a chance.

Nice.

This is a sappy love song live in the air with Bing Bong.

Hey, four, four, nine, six, seven, two, seven, eight, nine.

Call our texts.

Your questions right now through the Civic Media app.

It's Bing Bong live in the air.

Never if I'm just staying.

Wait for me.

Wait for me.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than you can.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than you can.

Won't you rock it to the sun?

Tell me quietly, I've always been the one.

Fix the things I know can never be undone.

Wait for me.

Wait for me.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than you can give.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than we can give.

All of how.

Take the sun away.

All of how.

Paint a million shades of gray.

The only thing I want from you is everything you have.

Everything you have.

Take it.

I feel the darkness from the night.

Watch it lead until it becomes its own life.

Wrap your arms around me, hold on tight.

Wait for me.

Wait for me.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than you can give.

Not asking more than you.

Not asking more than you can give.

Not asking more than you can give.

Not asking more than you can give.

Not asking more than you can give.

Yeah.

There's Big Bang live in the layer here on Max Sink Radio.

Don't forget 844-967-278.

We're going to bring on a guitar as Danny Hicks up to the microphone.

The first question I want to ask you is something unique that you don't see in bands that have been together for more than 20 years, I guess, or 10 years, I guess.

But you're the original band.

No one's calm, no one's left.

That's true.

What's the secret sauce?

What's the secret ingredient for that?

We're older and we're not going to put up with crap from the various members.

We got really lucky with meeting the right people and getting the group together.

As someone said, stalking the right people until they joined the band with you.

There's another view to that.

Well, we love it.

I'm glad that you guys are still together and still putting out some great music.

And we still like each other.

Oh, good.

Yeah.

I think that's like the main ingredient you need a band.

Or whatever you do, something like this.

You have to light the people that you're performing with.

We enjoy our practice nights.

It's like our bowling night or our dart league.

Yeah, definitely.

That's awesome.

How did you get going with music?

What possessed you to be a guitar player, I guess I'll say?

My parents were both musicians.

There was a guitar in the house and I learned basically by my own.

And in junior high, I remember opening the Cheap Trick of Budacan line album.

Yeah.

And seeing the photos of Rick and Robin and those guys over there.

Yeah.

It's so cool.

And here you are.

Oh, yes.

Are they kind of an inspiration for you as far as music goes?

I like their music.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Why guitar for you?

I think that's because it was the first thing accessible to me.

Got it.

You learned chords and then you just move on from there.

How is your writing style as far as the band goes?

Who writes what and how does that all come together?

I'm always amazed at this part.

Some songs, Pam's written, some songs I've written.

And a lot of times what we'll do is I will write the music to a drum machine and pass it off to Pam.

And then she surprises the heck out of me with the melodies and lyrics that she comes up with.

That is cool.

Do you ever just get together and jam?

No.

No.

There's a thought.

You probably don't have time.

If you're working on stuff you want to do to bring it to a live show.

I think Pam mentioned trying that a time or two.

Well, let's get back to live music in the layer with BingBong presented by the Aaron Weber group.

In the next song you have for us tonight, it's called Clear Blue Sky.

And it just won the Mama's overall song of the year.

Tell us about this song before you play.

Well, this is one of those songs that Danny had mentioned.

He wrote the music, the riffs, and everything, and then sent it to me.

And then it was just weirdly complicated yet simple.

Some of the times he sends me stuff, and I just like, I don't know what to do with this.

This was really...

This was really kind of easy.

I just got into the mindset of, again, it's kind of a love song, but it's a song about a fellow that's...

In search of his one true love, unfortunately.

By the end of the song he hasn't found it yet.

Oh no!

All right.

There you go.

Well, let's find his way here.

It's live in the layer with BingBong live on Civic Media and Maxing Credio.

Oh, two, three, go.

He sees clear blue skies

Oh, he's stretching out ahead

On a distant shore, she's right there

With eyes of the green and yellow red

Who will be spinning around?

Grab the ground, grab the ground

So you don't fall down

So you're bound to round and round

And when he seeks he can't find her

And the clouds appear to end

Every day is so many my doors

No, the sea's not your friend

Who will be spinning around?

Grab the ground, grab the ground

So you don't fall down

Round and round

Round and round

On a clear blue skies

And every day is so many my doors

Who will be spinning around?

Grab the ground, grab the ground

So you don't fall down

Round and round

Round and round

So good

Come on in and join us

The Burr Oak is in Madison

So Pam, tell us a little bit about this new album

I mean, now we know that you don't necessarily like recording

But I'm glad you did it

And what did it take you to get this far with this album?

Well, it turns out that

I don't hate recording as much as I thought I did

I'm actually playing music with a bunch of people

I just love and adore playing music with

I can tell

It makes it really easy and fun

But we also found a paradigm studios and Jake Johnson over there

They're good

Yeah, and a lot of mamas

But he's just fantastic

So he was just a joy to work with

So we had a bunch of songs from

When we couldn't play out during the pandemic

That we just worked on

And created and then

We had to record them

And we actually couldn't put them all on the album

Because we had so many songs

Oh my gosh

There's 13 songs on this album

And it was hard to pick the ugly stepchild to leave off

But it'll appear sometime in the future

Good

Yeah, it was just a lot of fun to record with him

It took us two years

Because this time we decided we wanted to put lots of bells and whistles on it

And sound effects and things like that

So are you happy with it?

Yes

Oh, good

You didn't even hesitate

That's excellent

Yeah

Well Pam Barrett, let's get to know a little of your backstory

Tell us how you started singing and playing guitar and writing songs

How did you get your start in music?

Well, my mom was a classically trained pianist

And of course her kids had to take piano too

Did she teach you or did she make you take classes with somebody else?

In fact, my aunt was the piano teacher in the family and my mom was like

I'm not going to sick you on her

Because that would have been a real family embarrassment

Because I'm really not good at piano

And I also played violin and ditto, not good at that

But in eighth grade I discovered the guitar

I took a class actually that was guitar recorder and recording

So a third of the class was learning how to play home on the range

Which was possible on the guitar

And that's a good campfire song

And then I learned green sleeves on the recorder

Oh, cool

And then I learned how to splice tape

Yeah, the old fashioned way

The old fashioned way with the razor and everything

Yeah, in eighth grade or seventh grade actually

They were giving razors to seventh graders

Yeah, that wouldn't fly now

Yeah

How did we grow up?

I know, I don't know

Oh, that is great

What other bands did you play with before being born?

I know the motor primitives

Right, the motor primitives

We were together for quite a while actually

In the hot like 2005 to 2012

And then we were all

I was also in the Sigourney weavers

Yes, that was a fun band

It was a fun band

It was a band on the edge all the time

Yeah, a lot of fuzz around the edges

But that was the way we liked it

Yeah, yeah

Well, we're glad you're in Bingbong

Yeah, I am too

Good

And of course, you're the owner of

A great bar here in Madison

Yeah, that's good

A legendary bar, the Harmony bar

I thanked her for buying at Jimmy K

Right in the heart of Sassy

How is it going over there Harmony?

It's going well, it's going well

We've got music there many, many days of the week

And we're open for lunch

And we've got music through the evenings

And just a good cheer

It's a great neighborhood joint community resource

Basically, we're an adult bake here center

I think I like that

Yeah, it's true

With good food

Yeah, really good food

Good food and good music

What was that moment that you just kind of heard that the Harmony was going to be open

To be able to be purchased

And what like, were you like, wow, I could do that

Well, it was not really, wow, it was more a fear response

Because I love that bar

My husband and I live within a block at that place

We had been going there since the 90s

And then when we heard it was going to be sold

We were afraid it was going to be sold and torn down

Right

Yeah

And so that's what got us off the mark to say

Let's do it

Wow

Thank you for doing it

Yeah, this is such an important part of the Madison music scene

Yeah

And you know, the neighborhood and the staff there are fantastic all the way

Yeah

And you still have Walnut burgers

And we still have Walnut burgers, absolutely

Well, let's get back to live music in the layer with BingBong presented by the Aaron Weber group

The next song you have for us tonight is called Rule the Rain

Tell us about this song before you play

Ah, Rule the Ruin

Rule the Ruin

Yeah, did you say rain?

Yeah, everything wrong

Okay

And that's another song

Oh, there you go

I just sparked an idea

Rule the Rain

Yeah, he did just spark an idea

Who

What is this happening to me?

This happened one other time, I believe with Kaling Cole

And yeah, rocker is 50% of the proceeds of the song you come up with

Yeah

How do my con keeps growing?

I don't know how you stand yourself

Yeah

No one ever does

Oh, happy birthday, rocker by the way

Oh, thank you

Yeah

Oh, Rule the Ruin

Rule the Ruin

It's all about people that just love power and to the extent that they're willing to

Just scorched earth everything in this path to become the number one guy

So this song is very relevant to the times right now

Yeah

You're live in the layer with BingBong

Wow

Yes

Tell us, you know, how did you get started in music?

What's a little bit of your backstory?

So the backstory of me

And I left some of this out last week

But, you know, it was super in the Van Halen

And Eddie Van Halen was like

Justice mythical

God in my eyes

And I thought if I play guitar

In about a month

I can play like Eddie Van Halen

I realized I could not

So drums

Here we are

So he became like his brother of the drummer

Yeah, basically

Yeah

Okay

And how did that go over with the family?

Pretty good

Yeah, good support

Good

I know my parents in the music

They were not

My brothers and sisters were super into music

And would ask me to air jam

And took me to see shows

When I was like

Five, six years old

Oh, that's perfect

My brother played drums

And he was banished to the basement

Oh, I was too

Oh, okay

Sorry

A band called the Penny Dreadfuls

Oh, I like that

Head pumps have great names

Thank you

Bing Bong

Yeah, yeah

And Elizabeth Schaefer

You know, people don't remember her

She was a great artist

A singer-songwriter here

In Madison, what was that, like, early mid-'90s?

Um, mid-'90s

Late mid-'90s, early 2000s

All right, I get my times mixed up there

There's spent so many years in the music scene

Well, let's get back to live music

And the layer with Bing Bong presented by the Aaron Webberg group

The next song you have for us tonight is called Faces

And it was released in 2020, pandemic era

Tell us about this song before you play

And we'll go back to Danny Hicks

This song was written in the mid-'90s

When I was in a band in the Rockford area

Called The Hollow

And it's about somebody who's very paranoid

It feels like everybody's watching them

And always got to have something what they're doing

Does that person carry a phone?

They do now

I did it in the mid-'90s

Tracking you

Yes

Okay, this sounds interesting

I can't wait to hear the words

All right

All right

Pam's gonna deliver that to you

Oh, right

All right, let's hear it

This is Faces

You are live in the layer of Maxing Gradio with Bing Bong

I'm so scared at me watching every move that I make

Watching me behind the glass

Never really knowing what I've been

There's been so many times

And imagine what they want to see

And the lights have looked my way

Even though I know I'm dead at scale

People got set cross my mind

Till now I've always been just fine

There's been so many times

And imagine what they want to see

And I say

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

It's too long and it's not cold

Maybe I should stay home all alone

I'm out of something empty

But I could pretend I'll be up til the end

So you all didn't learn the rules

And you stand what they want from me

And I say

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Faces, faces stare at me

What exactly is it that they say?

Part of me, a part of you

Counting side to really all the same

When it comes down to the bone

You look really bothers me

And I say

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Oh, am I conscious of the race?

Never race, never race

Never race, never race

Oh, wow, wow

That's some good stuff right there

That was awesome

That was awesome

How do we keep up with BingBong online?

Oh, you can't keep up with us

You could answer

I mean, you just passed that age where you can rocker

Oh, wow

And they'll cry

I want to

Yeah, I'm kidding

You guys have a website

It's called BingBongBand.com

And actually, it looks new

It looks really nice

It's a newer

Yeah, we need to take some newer pictures

Well, maybe we don't

But we're gonna

Well, Pan, Danny, Julie, and Brian

Thank you so much for taking the time to come down to the studio tonight

Play for a thriving layer

We really appreciate it

And we have time for one more song from BingBong

And it's a throwback from your first album

It's called Bouncing Ball

Tell us about that song

Let's go back to the beginning

I'd love to, but I really don't know what it's all about

It's all just the bodacious little song

That's perfect

That's perfect, let's hear it

Let's leave it right there

Bodacious to end the layer

It's BingBong live in the layer

And live in Max Inck Radio

We are concentrated

You can't take the time

People are coming down

Sick noise the sound

If you want it all, keep your eye on the ball
