Rock N Roll Archaeology (RNRA) is more than a podcast; it’s an immersive, carefully researched and produced audio documentary.
RNRA explores the history of Rock Music, and then goes a step further. We contextualize Rock N Roll; we place it within the cultural, political, and technological landscapes of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
With storytelling, commentary, and a dash of musicology, we explore how music, culture, and technology interact and affect each other—how they ARE each other.

Rock N Roll Archaeology explores the 1970s LA Sound, a world of sun-drenched
harmonies and seismic ambition. From a bizarre funeral pact for Gram Parsons at the
Troubadour to the rise of the Eagles from Linda Ronstadt's backing band, this is the story of how
a community of folk idealists, including Jackson Browne, gave birth to a billion-dollar industry.
We chart the collision course between artistic collaboration and corporate rock, right on the fault
line.
