Nick Vicario - Smirk
from Rocker Dogcast Hosted by Tim Dill
Punk rock stalwart and creative driver behind the band Smirk, Nick Vicario stops by the show to introduce us to his 3 year old Landseer Newfoundland named Jam who he and his wife adopted after having to rehome an Anatolian Shepherd that exhibited some aggressive tendencies. Nick also touches upon his childhood dogs that included a humongous black Schnauzer and larger than life Great Dane/Mastiff mix, the themes behind his songs Dog Years and Domestic Dog and the time he was "pantsed" by Jam. Hear these stories and more from this lifelong musician who's perspective is now coming from outside of the fast lane and behind a white picket fence. Smirk's new LP Speculative Fiction is out now and their East Coast tour winds up this week with stops happening tonight, August 4, in Turners Falls, MA, 8/5 in Boston and 8/6 in Providence, RI.
