Episode 44: My Friend Chris Farren

Yaaasss, queen! You might know him from his double-verified Twitter antics or his sweet Snapchat kisses, but Floridian singer-songwriter Chris Farren can do more than just make 'em laugh. Through his bands Fake Problems and Antarctigo Vespucci, as well as his own solo material, Farren has also broken hearts and raised fists; evolving from a back-of-the-van wunderkind into a front-and-centre showstopper. The Naples native and total sweetheart was in fine form out the back of the Factory Floor, recorded in the midst of a tour with longtime friend and AV bandmate Jeff Rosenstock. Hear all about the small-town kid made good, complete with fairytale tour opportunities and unlikely bonds.For more information on Chris and links to his music, visit www.chrisfarren.comSupport for All My Friends Are in Bar Bands comes from Spit the Dummy Records.
