Chitty from Houston Calls mentioned them on his interview so I gave them a listen, dug it, got them on the Zoom, and this is what we chat about: The Minnesota scene The bread theft Getting on Rise Records Their first tour being 3 months long Triple Crown Records Recording with Ed Rose Auditioning for Drive Thru Myspace Kind of getting screwed by Immortal Records And a ton more Ryan has a new EP so go check it out.
