Part 1 of 2

Guest host Jon Dawson goes in depth with the band about the creation of DiG.

How does a band find a way to connect with their audience? How does the audience find a way to their music? How does an industry continue to operate when there’s a barrier to coming together? These are the issues we discuss in this podcast. Also, Kurt and Rick talk about The Grip Weeds album Under The Influence Of Christmas.

Kurt and Rick Reil discuss the song "Casual Observer (To A Crime)"– writing, recording and producing a video that mirrors the current events of the election season, and also talk about covering John Lennon's songs as part of a compilation celebrating his life.
