The Burning Nerve Ending Magic Podcast :: A Sun City Girls Story
Podcast Description
The world doesn’t necessarily need another podcast, or maybe it does, who’s to say? It’s hard to tell these days, but one thing is for certain: if something is worth doing, it’s worth going all the way. An indescribably specific band and spiritual institution of sound comes to mind that not only deserves a poetic platform to be consistently celebrated but also acknowledged for its atmospheric alchemy, which continues to push the boundaries of music, art, and the cosmic nature of the world. Of course, I’m talking about the Phoenix/Seattle-based outfit Sun City Girls.
As an obsessed fanatic, it is my honour and deep privilege to announce that The Self Portrait Gospel will be launching a brand new podcast, “The Burning Nerve Ending Magic Podcast - A Sun City Girls Story,” completely separate from our weekly show, that will be entirely dedicated to the harmonious history and liberating legacy of the band’s multi-decade run. Join us as we take a deep, dark, and dystopian dive into the esoteric environment and liberating landscape of perhaps one of the most frighteningly original groups to have shattered the subconscious since Sun Ra and John Coltrane walked the earth. From Tempe to Thailand, Seattle to Singapore, let’s take a trip around the world as we connect with the band’s critical community of cosmic collaborators, friends, engineers, and much more.

To kick off a brand new season, we decided to go back to the very beginning, where it all started, and catch up with Paris 1942’s Jesse Scrogoncik to talk a little bit more about Moe’s legacy and the integral role she not only had in the band’s short-lived history but also for the revolution of women in music everywhere over the last half century. Even though the group only played four shows, they dedicated a great deal of time to capturing several recordings and esoteric evidence of the metaphysical magic that makes up the band’s creative, cosmic core, which can still be heard in countless canyons and calcified caves around the world.
While entertaining the Gods of improve, Paris 1942 isn’t just the humble beginnings of the Sun City Girls, but a sonic staple in the importance of the decade’s radical reaction to the world around them. With the release of the band’s archival material “Birds in Their Cages” on Superior Viaduct, as well as a souped-up compilation via the group’s legendary self-titled debut, the band has come full cirlce, while simultaneously occupying a special space in people’s subconscious after all these years.
