035 - WHOOP-Szo
Our Inside The Artists Studio podcast has gone on hiatus due to Covid 19. The reason being that part of what makes the show so great is the face to face aspect of the interview. Doing this show over the phone simply wouldn’t give us the product we desire. Because of this, we have no new content to provide but have begun looking back and highlighting an episode from our vault on the days when new episodes were supposed to arrive. Today we are replaying Jeff’s interview with WHOOP-Szo. They are joined by Drew of Grizzlar Coffee & Records, an independent coffee roaster/record label in Edmonton. The reason we chose to highlight this episode is to celebrate WHOOP-Szo’s making the Polaris Prize long list and Grizzlar’s recent re-opening.
Jeff is joined by Adam & Joe from WHOOP-Szo and also Drew from Grizzlar Coffee & Records. They talk about the beginning of the band, how its morphed over the years and a recent tour in Mexico that bloomed into fruition with the help of Grizzlar. Then they discuss becoming a part of the label’s roster (and also what’s up with this coffee roasting business that also puts out records).
Recorded June 17th, 2018.
