Interviews

The following are video interviews I’ve conducted for Banded PR or for various projects while a student at Arkansas State University. 

Ready Revolution

San Antonio born-and-raised rockers Ready Revolution have returned from hiatus with their brand new, heavy-hitting record, Let It Out. I sat down with Diego, Emilio, Matt, Kevin, and Shane over Zoom to chat about all things new in the Ready Revolution world. We talked about the process of finally getting Let It Out into the ears of longtime and new fans alike, our favorite tracks from the record, and how excited they are for their first show back in 5 years!

the last bandoleros

The Last Bandoleros are already back with a new record less than six months after the release of their sophomore record from earlier this year. It’s called Tex Flex Folklórico, and it just hit streaming platforms today! I sat down with Jerry, Diego, and Emilio over Zoom again to catch up on what’s new. We talked about how Tex Flex Folklórico came about, the creative process behind it, and what’s coming up next for them!

The Last Bandoleros

The Last Bandoleros are embracing their roots and embodying a new sound with their new record Tex Flex, which just hit streaming platforms today! I sat down with Jerry, Diego, and Emilio over Zoom to chat about all things Tex Flex. We talked about the concept of “Tex Flex,” making the album, what they love about the album, and what’s next for them!

Henry The Chap

For my first ever interview for Banded PR, I sat down with Brooklyn-based musician and cat lover, Henry The Chap, in promotion of his debut single, “Doh + Puh +Meen.” We talked all about the new single, the Studio Ghibli-influenced music video, what he’s got in the works in the coming months, and of course, his beloved cat, the one and only Princess Mae Mae!

The Last Bandoleros

This is one of my favorite projects I’ve done! This interview was conducted for Eclectic Corner (radio show) and Premiere Magazine (printed publication) in February of 2020. We talked about how the band came to be, their never-ending love for The Beatles, what it was like working with Sting, Around a Neon Cactus, and more!
