My guest today is Connor Blackwood, the front man for Alchemize.
This band does things really well and, as you know, music like this is the reason I do the show to begin with. People need to hear when bands tie genres together, because great things happen. The rest is the discovery process.
That's what we're doing today. Discovering Connor and his awesome band, Alchemize.
So... let's get to it... what do you say?
