Sydney - Jay Jensen and Scott Sanderson - Ian's Untitled Scene Show
from Ian's Untitled Scene Show · host Ian Scene
This one’s been a long time coming 🤘After 20 years, I finally sat down with Scott and Jay from one of my favorites, Sydney!We get into everything. The full original lineup is somehow back together after all this time, what actually led to the band calling it quits back in 2009, and how much of it had to do with the Scene shifting versus label pressure and just straight up bad timing. There’s some real honesty about their second record not landing the way they wanted, and what it feels like to watch the sound you built your band on start getting passed by something heavier. We also talk about the return, including the very “Sydney” move of coming back after two decades with a minute-and-a-half punk jam for no real reason at all… which, of course, has a deeper story behind it than you’d expect. There’s a ton of Scene talk in here, too. Touring stories, how fast things changed in the mid-2000s, getting compared to bands they weren’t even trying to sound like, and what they were actually listening to when they wrote that first record. You may be surprised…If you were there for this era, you’re going to feel this one. If you weren’t, this is one of those conversations that explains why it still matters. Funeral For A Friend is even mentioned!Sydney is back 🤘Original Photo Credit: Marion MsCheck out the exclusive conversation below, including iTunes, Spotify, and more:Spotify 🤘 iTunesMake sure to support Scott, Jay, and Sydney in all they do!
