About this episode
Episode 197: Bay Area rock and jam hero Tim Bluhm founded The Mother Hips with Greg Loiacono 30 years ago while still students at Chico State in California. Signed right away, they made a mark with their quirky power pop and new-world psychedelia. They've had quieter phases over the decades, but now's not one of them. The team is writing a lot and working on recordings for an indie Nashville label form their Bay Area base. The latest, Glowing Lantern, helps illuminate a fascinating conversation about one of the nation's excellent cult bands.
