Rose Lewis (Love In Hell) on Punk Zines, Booking Benefit Shows, & Portland DIY | The J-Card Podcast

Rose Lewis’s multiple disciplines (visual art, music, radio, DJing, zine publishing, and more) are all tentacles of the same punk-infused, DIY jellyfish. In this episode we get into her band Love In Hell, her mostly-undocumented hardcore side project Pumping Iron, her print zine Scorpio Mind, and the DIY logistics of booking benefit shows in Portland.We also go through her mixtape, which is built with demos, rarities, and alternate versions in mind, before we close out with One For The Road. Enjoy!More on IG:@_love_in_hell_band_ https://www.instagram.com/_love_in_hell_band_The J-Card is presented by Rue Defense Tape Club, a quarterly, mail-order cassette compilation and DIY audio project. Each episode is part music discovery, part oral history, part hangout show. We ask artists, musicians, filmmakers, and other music-minded folks to build us their own personal mixtape and talk about the moments and memories that inspired it.New episodes drop here and wherever you get your podcasts.
