For this episode, I am joined by my friend Ben Fowers, guitarist for the straight edge hardcore band Embrace Today. We discuss Ben's life in Boston, how he got into punk and hardcore music, and what it was like growing up in a city with serious hardcore history. We dive into his early days of picking up the guitar, starting his own bands, and eventually joining Embrace Today.
Ben shares his experiences of performing and recording with the band, touring the country, and playing iconic shows and festivals. Whether you're a hardcore fan or just curious about the world of underground music, this episode is packed with insight, stories, and first hand experiences from the early 00's hardcore scene.
