This week, Features co-director Jessi D speaks with Adele Nicholas of Axons about their most recent release, I Object to Everything. They discuss her career within Axons and the bands current three-piece format, her day job as a civil rights attorney, and her inspiration from and deep research into a prison breakout - I Object to Everything is a concept album inspired by the true and almost mythological story of Kenneth Conley and Joseph "Jose" Banks, two inmates who escaped from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in downtown Chicago in 2012.

"There were certain parts of this story that just were so emotionally compelling that I just knew they had a song in them." - Adele Nicholas

Axons will be hosting a release show at the Hideout on Thursday, April 7, 2022.

Produced by Jessi D.
