Miranda makes a fruit-forward hot americano for Thom Waddill of Font!!!

Font is a post-punk band based in Austin, TX, and coincidentally, some of my very best friends! Thom Waddill and Jack Owens began writing the music that would become Font in late 2020. They started playing live shows in 2022 to rave reviews and huge crowds of dancing bodies. This week, they head out on a West Coast tour supporting Yard Act. Their debut album, Strange Burden, is out on July 12, 2024.

TThe Barista Friend Podcast is produced, recorded, and edited by Miranda Haney in Austin, Texas. Anthony Bazzini created the theme music. The fine folks at ⁠⁠⁠⁠Binx Corp Espresso⁠⁠⁠⁠ help make this podcast possible.
