Our first telephone Interview recorded August 09th 2017 is now available as a Podcast. The Interview was with Steve Wiest of Vinyl Hampdin. This is one of what I hope will be many interviews bands and band members. I must apologize this was our first interview and it is a big awkward, but we will get better at it.
