Season 3 - Ep. 19 - What It's Like to Start a Punk Band During a Pandemic in the Midwest with Milwaukie's Bad Year

I am going to be speaking with the Milwaukie based punk band, Bad Year today about their band, their upcoming new music, and the state of midwest punk rock these days. The band has released two EP’s to this point with a couple of singles as well since forming in 2019. Obviously, in hindsight that meant that right after creating the band, they had to take a massive hit from the pandemic. So, the band name wasn’t just clever, it was prophetic. We will be speaking with the band about all of this and more right after this.
