Golden Hour with Charlene Kaye

Mike Park - Asian Man Records Founder on a Life in Punk Music


Listen Later

To say that Mike Park is an icon in the world of ska and punk music would be an understatement. Not only is he the frontman of the ska/punk bands The Chinkees, Bruce Lee Band, and Skankin' Pickle, but after starting his own label Asian Man Records in 1996, he's worked with over 100 artists putting out their music, including Alkaline Trio and Less Than Jake. In this episode Charlene and Mike talk about his getting signed to a major label in Korea, supporting up-and-coming Asian artists, and who the band name "The Chinkees" came from.
