Winners never quit! Today on the show, David Bazan and Damian continue a 20 year old backstage conversation about punk! Listen in as they discuss the journey that brought David to forming Pedro The Lion. From sneaking listens to Beatles’ records, to the life changing impact of Fugazi, to the seedy sides of the secular and non-secular music businesses: DON’T MISS THIS ONE!
Also, don’t miss Pedro The Lion’s fantastic new album: “Havasu.” Available on streaming services now and coming to CD/LP/CS soon, on Polyvinyl Records.
