On this exciting episode I sit down and chat w/ Drew Safari, 1/2 of the Chicago pop punk group Noodle Brain (which also features Eddie from The Kobanes and The Mitochondriacs.) We chat about coming up w/ the band out of necessity to save songs after his bands dilution, first getting into pop punk, and being influenced by his dad’s music collection. We also talk about writing lyrics, his releases: the “Self-Titled” EP and his full length “Bored to Death,” his relationship w/ Grim Deeds and Laptop Punk Records, filling in on guitar w/ Sex Dream, new music coming up soon, and so much more! So sit back and dive into this episode of TIJAP! *** (songs by Noodle Brain featured: “All in Your Head,” “A Lazy Sunday,” “The Sun Will Shine on You,” “She’s a Psychopath,” and “Can’t Stand You.” Used with permission.) ***
