Beers With Bands

On this weeks episode I sit down with Mike aka Hotel Etiquette, a solo punk artist from Buffalo, New York. We talk about the start of Hotel Etiquette and how it went from a covid outlet to a new passion project. We also dive into responses that he received from the initial EP "Sex Questions" and the follow up LP "Ex Questions". Both of which are solid releases but you can also see the slight transition from punk into this new blend that is now Hotel Etiquette. Along with hearing about what we can expect to see from HE in the future, Mike talks about some of key moments from his time in music. Personally as a fan of Mike's previous project and being able to not only talk to him but getting to hear about his stories and hear how thankful and humble he is makes this my favorite episode to date. I had a wonderful time talking to Mike and I can't wait to see what comes next. Be sure to keep an eye on Hotel Etiquette to stay up to date on everything that is coming next!

This episode features the songs "I Feel Terrible" and "Mood".
