from Emo Kids Anonymous Podcast · host Hosted By Amanda Valdivieso & Robb Laffoon
Welcome to EKA 141! Today we are joined by our friends Hanny, Cyle and Joey aka latchkey kids, a New Jersey band based in Philly. Join us as we explore the journey of the band Latchkey Kids, their influences, the creative process, and the making of their latest album 'Year of Summers'. We talk about Tom May from The Menzingers involvement in the record and how that relationship came to fruition, working with Kyle Pulley, and the greek mythology present throughout the lyrics. As usual, the conversation inevitably turns to Fall Out Boy for a bit as it tends to do around here!
