Three Questions with Trembler

At least one question is about the artist's current project, and the other two are usually about ideas connected to their artistry overall. I had a nice chat with Luke Gonzales of the band, Trembler. They have a new EP out called Total Sorry. It kind of dawned on me how much I listened to Trembler's previous work after jumping back in for this interview. I think it was on some playlist where songs from ...

I recorded two sessions with Brian because the first session focused more on influences and how the band got back together. In the second s...
