Before there was Underground Music Collective, there was Lehigh Valley Underground, a plucky regional music blog based in Bethlehem, PA.

The origin point of that blog? Of course, it’s our Official Podcast, The Quinn Spinn, which is still running strong in its 10th year.

Over the course of the past decade, we’ve had the opportunity to make countless connections with artists and fellow creatives near and far. However, some of the strongest and most enduring reside right back home in Bethlehem!

That’s why this Tuesday, May 23 at 6:30 p.m. ET (that’s 5:30 p.m. CT), UMC Founder/CEO Gerard Longo joins Your Next Favorite Band, the Lehigh Valley-based show where you can hear the music and stories of creatives whom you’ll follow forever. Gerard joins hosts Phillip Reese and David Moore for a conversation that spans UMC’s entire history (and beyond), and we might even reveal something special and exciting that we’re cooking up back in the homeland this fall.

Be sure to tune in here. And, in case you miss the live edition, not to worry: this episode will be released on both Your Next Favorite Band’s and The Quinn Spinn’s streaming platforms later this week, with a Part 2 to come a bit later this year.
