Episode #26 w/ Jason Cruz (Strung Out, Jason Cruz and Howl)

May 20, 2015

Very excited that I got to sit down and chat for a bit with the vocalist/lyricist of my favorite band of all time, Strung Out.I preface this at the beginning of the episode, but this was particularly nerve racking for me and not an easy interview for me to do. I managed to get through it, albiet some awkwardness. Still, the end result was a cool, interesting chat that was also very funny. I've been seeing Strung Out shows consistantly for many years and it is always a cathartic experience for me. Thank you so much, Jason, and to the rest of Strung Out and their crew for always being so damn cool to me. I appreciate it more than you guys will ever know. Music-wise, I kept this Strung Out related, two songs from the band and two from SO side projects; Jason Cruz and Howl (Jason's other band), and Implants (SO guitarist Rob Ramos' other band).The band's newest release, Transmission.Alpha.Delta, was released on March 24th on Fat Wreck Chords.PLAYLISTStrung Out - "Rats In The Walls"Jason Cruz and Howl - "Warsong"Implants - "Through The Window"Strung Out - "Too Close To See"
