As we transition into full podcast mode, we welcome quite literally one of Florida's best bands.. @cannibalkids! No one is as raw, yet consistent as them; they seem to get it right effortlessly.. every single time. Damian Gutierrez (Vocals, Rhythm Guitar) and Dustin Diaz (Lead Guitar) met in Middle School and started making music together. Damian later met Luke Faulkingham (Drums) and brought him into the band. The three of them virtually "sit down" with the Based girls to talk about everything from their adventures into becoming Cannibal Kids, 2016 early jams, touring all of the east coast, and most importantly their full-length offering deadheads. 

A follow-up to their 2017 debut, Bloom, deadheads is a brand new sound that showcases the band’s diversity and growth. "Deadheads" literally meaning to remove dead flower heads from (a plant) to encourage further blooming. This project has solidified a healthy fanbase not only in South Florida, but worldwide! As the rollout of this project hit right before the pandemic, the trio discusses how they had to make a slight shift to still encourage full coverage with digital activations to replace the same love they would have received from the tour that was planned. They are even doing an in-house tour on their Youtube to perform and promote these songs. 

Cannibal Kids x Based was so much fun & lots of energy, but most importantly, we learned so much about their process. If you like what you heard, follow us on Instagram @based90.5!
