What band did you discover in 2023 (can be a brand new band or an older band) that had an impact on your life? How so?
I discovered a band called Fiddlehead. I guess they've been around since 2014, but for whatever reason never crossed my radar. They're awesome and their songs are super inspiring.
How will you remember 2023 (in terms of music)?
I think 2023 can be remembered as a good year for music as well as post-Covid live shows. It seems things are back on track. It's true music seems to have become even more disposable and artificial recently, but at the same time I see more reach, more DIY efforts, better sounding records, and new and interesting genres.
What can we look forward to from you in 2024?
More music! With both Bricheros and SACK.
What records are you looking forward to most in 2024?
Hopefully a new Drug Church album.
With physical media sales seemingly less popular than ever, what are some the best ways that fans can help to support the musicians when they go to a live show?
Honestly, I thought CD sales were no longer viable although the last few shows we've played people actually bought CDs. A comeback ,perhaps? When going to a live show, other than purchasing merch, I think the best way for fans to show support is to make short clips, reels, tik toks or whatever and post those online and share. Social media is a huge way to show support, for sure.
