Ray Wroten (Bond & Bentley) on Touring Chaos, Trivia Nights, and Rebuilding Old Songs

from If This Doesn’t Work… · host Justin Anderson

Ray Wroten from Bond & Bentley pulls up to the studio to talk touring, local Maryland venues, why the band re-recorded fan-favorite songs instead of “remastering,” and how recording live in the room keeps the human feel intact.We also get into: ridiculous band name ideas, bar-gig requests, “Two Dollar Hot Dog / One Dollar Water,” sobriety + anxiety spirals, meditation that actually works, running a trivia company (M.R. Pub Games), and the most important hypothetical of all time: how many 10-year-olds in bike helmets could you take with a baseball bat?Bond & Bentley “Remnants” is out now.Ray also hosts trivia through M.R. Pub Games.Upcoming: Bond & Bentley live Feb 28 at The Room at Cedar Grove (Lewes, Delaware) dinner + show benefit format.You can find Ray: Website: raywrotenmusic.comFacebook: facebook.com/raywrotenmusicInstagram: instagram.com/raywrotenSpotify: open.spotify.com/artist/5CtSfmKFtZlg8R35flezgUiTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/artist/ray-wroten/412672792You can find Bond & Bentley:Website: https://bondandbentley.net/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bondandbentley/#Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bondandbentleyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/bondandbentleytube📌 Support the show:Join YouTube Members for $0.99/month for exclusive content, bonus episodes & behind-the-scenes chaos.
