On this episode of Music You’re Missing, host Brendan Jeannetti sat down with Ari, the creative force behind the indie band Dipsea Flower, for a candid conversation about the artist’s musical journey.
Ari, originally from California, shared how the band's name pays homage to the Dipsea Trail in his hometown. He detailed his unconventional path to music, from business school at Northeastern University to a cross-country journey that eventually led him to Berklee College of Music. Ari’s story highlighted a journey driven by intuition, personal growth, and a deep passion for music, culminating in the formation of Dipsea Flower.
Ari discussed the creative process behind Dipsea Flower's songs, including their recent track "Sundance," which was born out of a bout of writer’s block. He described the transformative experience of collaborating with producer John Gilbert, who pushed the band to explore new sonic directions. This collaboration resulted in a fresh sound that Ari is particularly proud of, marking a significant step in Dipsea Flower’s evolution.
The conversation also touched on the band's recent tour with notable folk acts like Hans Williams and the Briscoe Brothers. Ari shared his excitement about the experience, highlighting how the tour tested the band's chemistry and expanded their live performance abilities.
Looking ahead, Dipsea Flower fans can anticipate new music soon, as Ari teased that more songs are in the works. As Dipsea Flower continues to grow, Ari remains focused on staying grounded, embracing life’s experiences, and sharing positive energy through his music.

In this episode of Music You’re Missing, host Brendan Jeannetti sits down with Peter Boyd, the Talent Buyer for Boston Calling, to explore his unique journey into the music industry and the behind-the-scenes challenges of organizing a major festival. Peter's story takes us from his college radio days to his current role at one of Boston's most iconic events, all while offering invaluable insights for those looking to break into the industry.
Peter shared that his career path was anything but linear. Starting as a college radio host, he stumbled into the music scene, eventually finding himself bartending at a live music venue in Boston. It was during this time that he began managing bands and booking shows—skills that would later be instrumental in his role at Boston Calling. He emphasized the importance of taking initiative, noting that he started booking shows simply because he was "bored" and felt stuck in the service industry. This entrepreneurial spirit set the foundation for his eventual leap into festival management.
At Boston Calling, Peter and his small team orchestrate the three-day festival, which has grown into one of the city’s premier events. Peter highlighted the importance of preparation, explaining that much of the festival’s success hinges on detailed planning long before the gates open. "If everything is done correctly ahead of time, all you can do is wait for something to go wrong during the event," he explained, underscoring the unpredictable nature of live events.
One of the key takeaways from the conversation was the importance of local talent to Boston Calling's identity. The festival is unique in its commitment to featuring Boston-based artists on its Orange Stage, giving lesser-known acts a platform alongside headliners like Megan Thee Stallion and Hozier. Peter described how booking local talent was a deliberate choice, helping these artists gain exposure while enriching the festival with a homegrown feel. He also stressed that for emerging artists, the key to getting noticed is not just having a strong online presence, but being active in the live music scene—whether that’s through consistent gigging or putting yourself out there.
This year’s Boston Calling showcased Chapell Roan’s rapid rise to stardom. Peter recalled how her main stage set at Boston Calling drew an unexpectedly massive crowd. He noted that while the festival’s team saw her potential early on, even they were surprised by how quickly she connected with audiences. Her performance, he said, mirrored the kind of breakout moments Boston Calling has become known for, giving artists a chance to make an indelible mark on the festival circuit.
For those aspiring to break into the music industry, Peter’s advice was straightforward: be persistent and don’t be afraid to start small. Whether it's managing a band, taking photos at shows, or volunteering at events, the key is to get involved and make connections. Reflecting on his journey, Peter emphasized that success in the music industry often comes from being in the right place at the right time—but more importantly, from being ready when those opportunities arise.

In this episode of Music You’re Missing, host Brendan Jeannetti sits down with Ben Murphy, the CEO of Murphy Hospitality Group and Whitecap Entertainment. With Sommo Fest just two weeks away, Brendan dives into the mind behind two of Prince Edward Island’s (PEI) most iconic festivals: the Cavendish Beach Music Festival and the newly established Sommo Fest.
Sommo Fest, taking place on September 13th and 14th, boasts an incredible lineup this year, featuring artists like Noah Kahan, The Beaches, Greta Van Fleet, and Maren Morris. During the interview, Ben Murphy shares how this festival, now in its second year, has already made a significant impact on the community. With over 20,000 attendees at its inaugural event, Sommo Fest was praised for its organization, family-friendly atmosphere, and its unique focus on culinary excellence, setting it apart from other festivals.
Ben’s dedication to making Sommo Fest a standout event is evident throughout the conversation. With a background in hospitality and deep roots in PEI, he has crafted a festival experience that goes beyond just music. From chef-curated food stations to high-end cocktail bars, Sommo Fest showcases the best of PEI’s local produce, seafood, and more. It’s an immersive experience that highlights the island’s culture and hospitality.
Securing Noah Kahan, one of the industry’s hottest names, underscores the growing impact of both Sommo and Cavendish Beach Fest. Together, these festivals have driven over $20 million in local business growth. Ben’s excitement for this year’s lineup is contagious, making it clear that Sommo Fest is a can’t-miss event.
As Music You’re Missing gears up to broadcast live from Sommo Fest, Brendan Jeannetti is thrilled to be part of this incredible event and community. If you haven’t grabbed your tickets yet, now’s the time—you won’t want to miss what promises to be an unforgettable weekend at Sommo Fest!

With the likes of Berklee, Spotify, and numerous Live Nation touring venues, Boston has quickly become a lively music hub. South Boston, however, is an often overlooked neighborhood full of an energetic crowd but minimal music. The Playwright, a classic bar and restaurant in South Boston, has recently undergone a complete redesign, allowing for a 2.5x increase in capacity and the addition of a state-of-the-art sound stage. This renovation prioritizes live music, bringing live music performances to South Boston five days a week!
The Playwright's social media manager, Brooke Ames, and general manager, John Carbonneau, stopped by our studio to speak with Music You're Missing host and the Playwright's talent buyer, Brendan Jeannetti, about the new space and all its offerings!
