Scratching the surface with City Kitty

This week is another compilation of the fake advertisements I have at the end of each episode. I've been doing these for the past 75 episodes so I figured it was time to take a minute again and highlight some of the great companies that make this podcast possible.

This week I’m talking with Rochester graffiti Legend, Change. We’re talking about how he got into graffiti back in 1984. What it was like becoming a graffiti writer late in the game at the age of 21. Some of the long lasting relationships he’s created over the years and what he's learned about the scene as he's continued to make work throughout his life, while living in a number of different cities around the U.S.

This week I’m in NYC talking with my two favorite Portland based street artists, RX Skulls and Voxx Romana. We’re talking about the three person show they just had in Portland with Toastoro. What it’s like being a full time artist, and some of the changes in our cities and the street art scene in recent years.

This week I’m talking with fellow travel enthusiasts Mike Franciosa and Carla Fergusson. I always stress the importance of travel but many are intimidated by the idea. In this episode we are discussing why and how we travel. Everything from planning to paying for your trip. 

This week I’m in NYC talking with Baltimore based street artist Cheer Up Official. We’re talking about our love for stickers and zines. The artists that are no longer active that inspired us and some of our street art travels.

This week I'm in NYC catching up with d7606 who was in town from Manchester and Urban Ninja from Toronto. We're discussing what they've been working on, what they hope to do on their trip and their impressions of the city since it's been awhile since either of them have been to NYC. 

This week I'm in NYC talking to painter and street artist Lecrue Eyebrows the day before his new solo show " Thoughts Moving forward" opened at Van Der Plas Gallery. We're discussing his artistic process and some of the breakthroughs he's had in this new body of work. Make sure to check out the show which is on display till August 25th. 

This week I'm in Beacon NY talking with Graffiti writer Skatch. We're discussing what it was like being a graffiti writer growing up in the Hudson Valley, his love for abandoned spaces and some of the challenges street artists and graffiti writers face when bringing their work into a gallery setting. 

This week I'm in NY catching up with fellow street artist Toastoro. We're discussing our recent shows and the post show depression an artist can suffer from when a show is over and they are faced with the question, what's next?

This week I'm in Beacon NY talking with the Godfather of street art Ron English. We're talking about his band The Rabbbits, yes with three B’s. How he got started in the art world and the latest documentary about his work "Living in Delusionville" that is out now and available on Prime video.
