ABOUT BOTHERING THE BAND
Your favorite music podcast is here! Bothering the Band is a fun, unique podcast in which we ask our favorite famous musicians super silly yet thought-provoking questions to see what really makes them tick. We don't care about their struggles or inspiration, we'd rather find out what they ate for breakfast, if they've ever seen a ghost, how they put their shoes on (sock, sock, shoe, shoe...or sock, shoe, sock, shoe), plus many more hilarious and insightful inquisitions. We've gotten blue-collar punk bands from Germany, Grammy-nominated folk bands, rising reggae-rap superstars, and the sky's the limit.
WITHOUT MUSIC, LIFE WOULD BE A MISTAKE
