Chris and Jay from The Strike jump on the mic for a fun, honest conversation about how a group of California friends turned a college project in Utah into a globally touring band with one of the most loyal fanbases in indie pop.

We get into the early days, the LA roommate era, and how that brotherhood shaped their sound, plus what life looks like now balancing music with teaching careers, family, and everything in between. They also open up about their evolving creative process—writing and recording across different cities, collaborating with top-tier producers, and building their next chapter piece by piece.

Of course, we talk about their reputation for electric live shows and what fans can expect from the No Time To Waste Tour this summer. And we wrap with their latest single “Famous”—a smooth, nostalgic track with a message that cuts deeper than its feel-good vibe, asking what we really want to be known for.
