Kam Franklin (The Suffers)

Welcome to Roadcase, a podcast exploring the live music experience!!  Hop on the Roadcase bus for this informative and important conversation with spectacular Houston-based artist, Kam Franklin. Kam is the vocalist for The Suffers whose amalgamation of sound and explosion of energy has garnered heaps of praise from NPR's Bob Boilen for an amazing Tiny Desk performance, and long before that show, in an amazing twist of fate, The Suffers made their late-night debut on the David Letterman show in 2015.  Kam has been hard at work during the pandemic -- she live-streamed from her home every week for the first three months -- and since then has been working on a solo album as well as new material with The Suffers who have an upcoming album scheduled for release this Fall. A victim of sexual harassment and assault, Kam is very outspoken about her experiences and shares with us the challenges she faces on a daily basis along with talking about her relationship with live performance, and the intricacies of managing her solo career. For more information: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: [email protected] music:  "Eugene" (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
