On this episode of the podcast, I’m joined by Crispin Earl of The Veer Union for an open and honest conversation about where the band is right now and what it takes to keep pushing forward. We dive into their upcoming album Reinvention, dropping February 20th via Arising Empire, and talk about how this release represents a real creative reset for the band.

Crispin shares what it is really like touring when you are not based in the United States, the rising costs that come with it, and how those challenges impact everything from routing to sustainability. We also talk about writing as a form of mental relief, using music to work through personal struggles, and why staying honest in songwriting still matters. It is a grounded conversation that touches on the business, the creativity, and the mental side of life in a touring band.
