Episode 81 - Dave Scheff from Translator

from Lived Through That · host Mike Hipple

"Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential musicians of the 80s and 90s and where they are today. On this podcast, we’ll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in that book, as well as other artists I love and admire. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring. This week's guest is Dave Scheff, drummer for the band Translator. If the name rings a bell, it should. The band, and their song “Everywhere that I’m Not”  helped define a sound that bridged post-punk and jangle pop in the early '80s. Today, Dave tells us about one of his pivotal moments- the break up of his band – and how the many happy accidents along the way. Music Credits: "Sylvestor" and "La Troga" from ⁠⁠Blue Dot Sessions⁠⁠ Translator's website Be sure to look for my books, "Lived Through That" and "80s Redux" where ever you buy your books.
