  • Fantasy Rock Draft
    Apr 8 2026

    The NFL draft is one of the great non-sporting events that's still a sporting event on the face of the planet. Teams do research on hundreds of players to get exactly the right fit for their team. With the draft right around the corner, someone needs to bring that same draft energy to music. Enter The Music List. The siblings are taking the draft to a whole new level in this episode. It's not enough to just pick the best or the worst or the songs that fit a category. In this episode, they're building a band. They have to have all the components- guitar, vocals, bass, drums, lyricists...and a sound that is cohesive and makes sense. How would Ozzy pair up with Brian Wilson? Meh? Key him up with a thrasher guitar player, and then you're business. After the dust settles, help the siblings determine....who built the best band?

  • Best Family Bands: Bands Build on Bloodlines
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode, the siblings tackle the Best Family Bands- acts build on bloodlines, not just talent. Though, genetics being what they are, talent, like apples, doesn't seem to fall far from the tree. Using The Music List's signature draft and debate format, we argue which bloodline ties that played together truly earned their legacy. The only rule? The musical act must have at least two members in it that are blood relatives. Mother and daughter, father and son, siblings, or even cousins. Shared blood means they're eligible for drafting.

    We discuss siblings' blood harmony, its effects on the music, and how shared DNA contributes to greatness. Of course, you can expect hot takes, humorous moments, and fierce arguments as siblings debate...other siblings. Join us and decide for yourself which family-based musical acts should earn top billing on The Music List!
