On this episode I sit down with Tyson Evans from Crooked Teeth to talk about growing up on Jimmy Eat World, Green Day, and Blink-182 — and how those bands shaped the songs he writes now. We also discuss bands taking creative leaps and outgrowing their expectations. Tyson breaks down what it’s like writing with Nic Long (Blink 182, MGK) and how hardcore influenced him in ways you wouldn't immediately know just by listening to his music.
