My Politic - Signs of Life - It's All Just Math

Two immediate updates are required for this next episode of the Tasty Brew Music Podcast. Within 48 hours of me speaking to Kaston Guffey of the indie folk duo My Politic on the radio over the 2026 Fourth of July weekend, there was a last minute scheduling change at the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival in Okemah, Oklahoma. I was in fact able to finally able to see My Politic perform in person in the middle of a 100 degree afternoon on The Bound for Glory Stage. Their next stop was the Greenwood Social Hall in Kansas City… I’m sorry to have missed that show but I am consoled by the fact that evening I was in Okemah Oklahoma dancing to JamesMcMurtry and Betty Soo in the Pastures of Plenty. Within a couple of weeks of the short tour's end, My Politic as a duo is taking a hiatus and Kaston Guffey will be performing and touring solo.

My Politic is Kaston Guffey And Nick Pankey. The two of themgrew up in the Ozarks & have been performing as My Politic for over 15 years. Across 10 releases, their body of work consistently showcases engaging storytelling, expertly crafted characters, highly skilled acoustic instrumentation & sibling like harmonies.

Enjoy this conversation with Kaston as we talk about The Ozarks, the craft of song and why it’s all just math.
