Welcome to Episode 12 of Tapestry. Today’s episode is a conversation with Shiva Skydiver, a three-piece rock band based in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania. The trio took time out of their packed schedule playing shows all over town and beyond to talk with me about what it’s like playing in a band with members born across almost three different decades, the importance of band chemistry and how it helps them play from “feel” alone - and how they ended up being booked to play a gig for a birthday party… all the way in Austria.
