It is not surprising to hear a story about anyone in a creative space having to deal with adversity and roadblocks in order to acheive their dreams. They inspire us to keep going, energize us to know that it is worth it, and invigorate our creative spirit.

But what if that story includes getting dropped by a major record label in less than a year, going through the legal process to get the rights to your music back, dropped by your management because you didnt make them enough during a worldwide pandemic, and classified as "damaged goods"? Now that is a band you want to get behind.

Steph and Paul from the Irish Emo band Greywind join the Chord Progression Podcast today, on the heels of the rerelease of their debut album Afterthoughts to give it the proper release. On this episode, join us for an insane half hour talking about:

• The insane origin story of Greywind and how it is one that would have made so many others quit (yes, we summarized the story, but there is so much more).
• Rereleasing the debut album Afterthoughts and the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people for your goals.
• Why fans are connecting to the authenticity of their emo sound with songs that relate to everyone's life in some capacity.

We have to have these 2 back for the full story. Be sure to subcsribe because they will be back soon.
