The past year of lockdown and self-isolation might just be the longest time that the band Real Estate has ever spent off the road and away from each other, on Friday the will release their new EP, Half a Human. A collection of songs created between two different worlds. While the architecture of each was constructed during sessions for their 2020 album, The Main Thing, the tracks came to life when vocalist/guitarist Martin Courtney, bassist/vocalist Alex Bleeker, keyboardist Matt Kallman and guitarist Julian Lynch began trading the material back and forth remotely throughout the pandemic. Download the title track for free now.
Real Estate stopped by Sun King Studio 92 on October 6th, 2017 for an exclusive and intimate show with WTTS listeners. Enjoy the music and conversation below!
Remember, Sun King Studio 92 sessions are for 92-3 VIPs only. If you’re not a VIP, take 20 seconds to sign up for free, then stop by the VIP Room to register to be in the live studio audience at an upcoming performance.
In Mind, the fourth full-length record from Real Estate, is a portrait of a mature band at the height of its power.

Paul Mendenhall Weekdays 5:30am – 10am paul@wttsfm.com Paul’s Facebook Paul has been host of the WTTS Morning Show since 2001, and has worked alongside Laura and Brad throughout those years, an amazingly long time for a radio staff to stay together. Prior to WTTS there were a myriad of other radio stations, some of Paul’s favorites include WERK in Muncie and WNAP, WIBC and WXLW in Indy. The better stories from his radio career however come from much smaller places and he’ll be glad to share as many as you can stand over a beer (or 3) especially if you’re buying. Paul was also a teacher at Ben Davis for many years in the 80s and 90s managing radio station WBDG and is still thrilled to run into students from the many radio staffs that passed through those doors. He actually designed the Ben Davis radio/TV studios but left to pursue a career in real estate before ever using said studios. He is still actively involved in real estate but swears he never approaches anyone he meets through ‘TTS about using his services. Worlds do not collide!
Saving the best for last, Paul has been married to his kind, understanding and beautiful wife Brenda for over a quarter century and together they raised 5 kids who are now all grown up and out of the house allowing Paul and Brenda to move into a cozy (real estate word for small) downtown condo. They do maintain a pontoon boat named “Toon In” (get it?) and are often cruising and swimming at Lake Monroe.
Brad Holtz Overeasy, Sunday: 7 – 11am and pm brad@wttsfm.com Brad’s Facebook Brad’s Twitter A proud Hoosier (and Westfield Shamrock) alum, Brad Holtz started in radio at “The Buzzard” (WNAP/Indy), where he first ran into Paul Mendenhall. He strolled over to the “independent” world of WTTS several years later and has never looked back. On the weekends -or late in the afternoon when he can duck out- Brad can be found on the golf course, in the Rathskeller Biergarten when it’s warm, or more-than-likely IN the Rathskeller when it’s not. Hobbies include golf (playing & watching), Colts & NFL football, Vegas excursions, wine & cheese sampling, Talking Heads and Stones records, and chasing around 2 sons and Albert and Rusty, a rather bizarre combination of dogs (a sweet, gentle Weimaraner and a Miniature Daschund with a real attitude problem).
Laura Duncan Weekdays 3pm-7pm laura@wttsfm.com Laura’s Facebook Laura’s Twitter Laura Duncan was born and raised in Indiana, attended Indiana University and has enjoyed over 2 decades of broadcast bliss. Laura believes that music is the sustenance of life and has gone days without food or water, but never one day without music. It is her belief that one day, Dave Grohl will sweep her off her feet. She keeps all tickets stubs from every concert she has attended and has been known to give front row tickets to back row fans. Looking for a friend who is as passionate about music as you are? Hang out with Laura, weekday afternoons from 3-7.
Matt Stone Weekends Born and raised in the hills of Pennsylvania, Matt got his start in radio at 15 years old at his hometown AM station, playing polka music. Matt has been on-air and programmed radio across the U.S. from North Carolina, Florida and Hawaii to San Diego. Matt has been exposed to many diverse music styles along the way which makes him a perfect fit here at WTTS. Matt is married and has a teenage son with a chihuahua and 2 cats rounding out his family. Hobbies include anything on the water and live music! Find Matt fishing or boating on the lakes on the weekends.
