The Issue & The Ivins (bands)

Episode 108- The Issue & The Ivins! This is double episode where I interview members of two bands! First up is Clay Deters, frontman of the band The Issue. They are a hard rock band from Minnesota and have a new single that just dropped today called “What You Need”. Then I talk to Jim and Jack Ivins of the alternative rock band The Ivins. We discuss everything from Jack playing football with Russell Wilson to what a “minnow bomb” is. They also have a new single on the way called “Don’t.”  Both interviews were a lot of fun! 0:00:00 - IntroCLAY DETERS - THE ISSUE0:01:35 - Life in Minnesota 0:06:00 - Hockey Prospect 0:09:38 - Early Days of Music 0:14:04 - Forming The Issue 0:17:25 - Covers Vs Originals 0:18:55 - Street Dances & Live Shows0:25:26 - Long Term Goals 0:27:34 - "What You Need" Song 0:29:42 - New Music Plans & Indie Radio0:35:45 - Live Shows 0:37:15 - Pete Frates ALSJIM & JACK IVINS- THE IVINS0:38:40 - Russell Wilson 0:41:30 - Moving to New York City 0:45:30 - Michael Caplan from Sony0:48:45 - Social Media For Bands 0:50:40 - Songs in Media 0:55:04 - Big Tips Texas & Minnow Bombs 0:59:25 - Billy Currington Music Video1:01:43 - Cover Bands & Tribute Bands1:04:22 - Musicians in Nashville 1:07:43 - Tool Tribute Show 1:11:48 - Collaborating on New Music 1:14:57 - Red Bull Athletes Music 1:17:00 - New Single "Don't" 1:20:14 - Bill Leverty Collab1:21:42 - Future Plans With Band 1:23:00 - Second Harvest Food Bank1:24:34 - Wrap Up The Issue Website:https://www.theissuemn.comThe Ivins Website:https://www.theivins.comJim Ivins Website:https://www.jimivins.comPete Frates ALS Website: https://petefrates.comSecond Harvest Food Bank:https://www.shfb.orgChuck Shute Website:http://chuckshute.comSupport the showThanks for Listening & Shute for the Moon!
