  • The Indie Torchbearer, Mike Manitone, Five Eight
    Apr 7 2025
    Indie rock is timeless and relevant. So get ready to pull out your best fan girl and fan guy personas for the one and only Mike Manitone of the 80s and 90s Athens, GA punk rock band ⁠Five Eight⁠! Mike and Five Eight are on a roll, coming off a successful SXSW event with the debut of their new documentary film, Weirdo: The Story of Five Eight, and their first single in six years, ⁠Take Me to the Skatepark⁠. Check out their ⁠Skatepark video on YouTube⁠.In this episode, Mike joins the show to discuss their successful showing at SXSW in Austin, the importance of mental health and community in the music scene, and maintaining authenticity in an overly commercialized music industry. Mike also talks about his creative process (he's only had one creative block in his decades-long career) and how, sometimes, spontaneous things and conversations can inspire songwriting and creativity.Mike and Jennifer hit the nostalgia super highway with memories of live music experiences in small venues and the magic of the Athens, Georgia, sound. Community engagement through music is essential for Mike because it fosters deep connections in the community and creates a supportive environment for everyone. He says live shows give them the opportunity to connect with fans and promote local culture. And he confesses to being happily surprised by the emergence of a new generation of musicians inspired by their work. Mike inspires us all to stay true to ourselves in the face of whatever life throws our way. Music for the win!You can see Five Eight live at these upcoming shows in April, May and June.
