Episode 73 - Writing Albums Via Text Message (with Atta Boy)
Description
I'm SO excited to share this one!! This week, I have Freddy Reish and Dashel Thompson from one of my favorite bands, Atta Boy (@weareattaboy)! The band - which also consists of Lewis Pullman and Eden Brolin - formed when they were all in high school.
Shortly after releasing their first album, "Out of Sorts" in 2012, the band went on an 8 year hiatus before releasing their sophomore album "Big Heart Manners". Their third album, "Crab Park" came out in 2022.
Freddy, Dashel and I sit down to unpack the incredibly unique backstory of these albums and how the band came to be. I also get some very promising teasers to share with you all.
Thank you Freddy and Dashel for making the time to chat with me. This was a dream come true, and I hope we can chat again soon!
The band would like to give a shoutout to the bands playing with them on their recent tour - @jmoriartymusic, @texinoband, @bucko.rva, @keenanomeara, and @caamp. Additional shoutouts to World Central Kitchen (@wckitchen) and the Palestinian Children's Fund.
