Behind the scenes with a great band

I got in Night Demon with the release of the “Darkness Remains” album, and the band quickly became a favorite of mine. BUT, you don’t have to be a Night Demon fanatic to enjoy this podcast. Jarvis, Armand and Dusty go into great detail about the process of being a working band, particularly on songwriting and recording. The three-part series on the writing and recording of “Are You Out There?” is like a masterclass on crafting a song. As a fan, and someone interested in the work that goes into being a professional, working band, I’m looking forward to digging into all the deep-dives.
