Unsung Screamers Podcast


Having spent most their lives pursuing the 'musical dream', Dan and Tara Fritz explore the stories of others who have done the same. Currently based in Springfield, MO, this married couple dives into the lives and stories of their local music scene in hopes to gain knowledge, inspiration and connection to their fans, by giving them the platform that they deserve. Having fame and fortune is not the only reason we dream. It's not the destination of everyone's purpose. However... the struggles, the triumphs, the pain, the joy, the satisfaction, the being broke down on the side of the road with only a dollar in your pocket... are all shared experiences. Get to know your not-so-famous local artists, writers, singers, players and even those behind the scenes whose stories will inspire you as much as any others.


So give us a listen...give us a like...you know, a thumbs up-the hitchhiker... And SUBSCRIBE!

In this episode of Unsung Dreamers, we were lucky enough to have the ever-so-amazing duo known as The Creek Rocks! Mark Bilyeu and Cindy Woolf were destined to be together to form this wonderful and amazing musical 'team'... well.... and to get married too, of course! 

Right from the beginning, we discuss their recent trip to Isesaki, Japan. Where they traveled to represent the city of Springfield, MO as part of the Sister Cities program of art, culture and music. Mark is from a very musical family, which explains how later in his musical journey he formed the band Big Smith, who recorded records, toured all over, wrote songs and spent years entertaining all of us fine folks right here in the Ozarks. Cindy is no stranger to music either. She's been writing and performing her original music for years. Both having tons of experience writing songs, and finding themselves involved in the same kind of music and experiences... it must have only been fate that brought them together to become The Creek Rocks!

Sit back and enjoy some great stories about how all this came about. From their early pickin' and grinnin' front porch guitar pulls, to the high school 'punk rock' bands, to performing to a packed house at The Gillioz Theater for their CD release party! The Creek Rocks!!... right here on The Unsung Dreamers! Go catch one of their shows. Go download their music. Go tell em that you heard of them right here!
