Algernon Cadwallader – “Shameless Faces” live on KEXP

Algernon Cadwallader unleashed a ripping in-studio take of “Shameless Faces (even the guy who made the thing was a piece of shit)” for KEXP on November 5, 2025. The lineup—Peter Helmis on bass and vocals, Joe Reinhart on guitar/backing vocals, Nick Tazza on drums, Colin Mahoney on guitar and Bryce Pulaski on keys/backing vocals—brings all the emo energy you’d expect.

Hosted by Troy Nelson, with Kevin Suggs on audio engineering and Matt Ogaz mastering the track, the session’s captured through five cameras (Carlos Cruz, Jonathan Jacobson, Luke Knecht, Kendall Rock & Ettie Wahl) and edited by Luke Knecht. Crank it up on Algernon’s Bandcamp or swing by kexp.org, and join their YouTube channel for extra perks!
