Ep. 121 - Maria Fantasma Duo

Ep. 121 - Maria Fantasma Duo

Author: Jason Ferguson July 26, 2016 Duration: 1:15:31

This week we got to spend some time with Blake Jarman and Ryan Wallace who make up the Tulsa two-piece band Maria Fantasma Duo!

On this episode you'll hear a fun, interesting, and sometimes a little weird conversation on art and creativity and a little about the writing and production that went into the making of the band's most recent EP "Poor Man's Graceland," which is now available on Bandcamp!

 

On August 3rd, Maria Fantasma Duo will be playing live at the Soundpony here in Tulsa and will be joined by Something and the Whatevers who will be visiting all the way from Lawrence, KS! They gave us permission to share a song with you and you'll hear "It's Never Fair" to close out the episode. 


There’s a certain magic that happens when creative people start talking without an agenda, just a shared curiosity about how things are made and why. That’s the feeling From a Basement in Tulsa captures each week. Hosted by Jason Ferguson, this podcast is built on the idea that the most genuine insights from musicians and artists don’t come from formal interrogations, but from the kind of meandering, comfortable chat you’d have backstage or in a quiet corner after a show. The conversations here are less about promoting a latest project and more about tracing the winding paths of a creative life-the early influences, the failed experiments, the quiet breakthroughs. You’ll hear from a wide spectrum of voices, from painters and sculptors to songwriters and performers, each sharing their process in a relaxed atmosphere. It’s this focus on authentic, laid-back discussion that makes the podcast a refreshing listen, offering a sense of connection to the human behind the art. Whether you’re an artist yourself or simply someone fascinated by the origins of compelling work, these dialogues provide a unique window into the diverse styles and personal backgrounds that shape our cultural landscape.
