What band did you discover in 2022 (can be a brand new band or an older band) that had an impact on your life? How so?
Viagra Boys was maybe my favorite find this year. Their music is catchy but odd and I absolutely love it.
How will you remember 2022? (In terms of music)
This year was very difficult for me on a personal level with struggling to stay sober and prioritizing my mental health. A lot of 2022’s new releases helped me a lot through the particularly dark times and kept me inspired to keep writing as well.
What can we look forward to from you in 2023?
Tightwire will be releasing our first album in over four years!! When that is released we will be hitting the road harder than ever before!!
What records are you looking forward to most in 2023?
I’m eager to hear what the new Blink record will sound like. I am cautiously optimistic.
Live shows are still a mixed bag as we adapt to social gatherings in a COVID world. What is something positive you see about touring right now? Anything you’d like to see change?
I feel like COVID has made us realize what a treat it is to go out and see shows or live events in general. We are also seeing a change in health awareness and I think it’s wonderful.
