    EP 4: DIY Touring with Tighe Eshleman

    Tighe Eshleman is the vocalist for Los Angeles, CA rock band Sink In. Despite spending most of their 5+ years together as an independent band, Sink In has generated an impressive grassroots following due to a relentless DIY touring schedule. In this episode, Tighe shares his stories, disasters and lessons learned, as well as some valuable tips and insight for any band interested in putting together a DIY tour.   Note: this episode was recorded in late May of 2020 when the situation surrounding COVID-19 seemed to be trending in a more optimistic direction. It has since become clear that the resumption of touring/live music is much further in the future than we had anticipated while recording this episode.   Listen to Sink In: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7HHQfvixJAUaqmz6cJbs49   Sink In Merch: https://sinkinband.com/collections/all-merch   Follow Sink In:   Twitter: https://twitter.com/SinkInBand   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/SinkInBand/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SinkInPa/   Thank you for listening to The American Arson Podcast.
