Episode 319 - Linus Dotson

July 4, 2025 · 38 min

Show notes

We talk to Linus Dotson - Singer, Songwriter & Producer. Not one to ever slow down or stop creating, Linus Dotson (or Linus of Hollywood) continues to deliver a mixture of power pop and electro wonders from his home studio out on West Coast USA. Whether it be as guitarist for Nerf Herder, one half of mould breaking electro pop duo Able Machines or just behind the mixing desk of the next big thing it's always stamped with fun and quality from an industry good guy. We chat about all his projects, returning to the UK, being a working musician using streaming services and finally getting your hands on hard to find Hair Metal Albums.
