Ep220: Eddie Rivas (Distorted Pony, Leopold)

What this episode covers

Eddie and Conan go way back, all the way to Eddie's late-90s, early 2000s "noise-rock band" Leopold. Plenty to talk about just with that, but he's also a member of the reunited Distorted Pony(!). A much missed band from the halcyon days of weird music, and a band he was an unabashed fan of. How does one approach playing in one of your favorite bands and what does that look like? From tone to space, to practices with one member in a different state, european tours and everything in between, to being ready to ramp back up in 2020 and pump the brakes because of COVID. Get an insider's look at this very specific set of parameters in cool noisy music with Eddie Rivas.
