    Interview with Jason Potbelly (Potbelly)
    Jan 7 2024
    On this special interview episode of the Banned Biographies podcast, host Tom Austin-Morgan chats with Jason Potbelly, the co-lead vocalist, guitarist and driving force behind Washington-based punk band Potbelly. The band has been around and touring since 1995 and has built up quite the community by producing split EPs and compilation albums with a plethora of well-known and unsigned bands over the years as well as relentlessly touring around North America. In fact, they’ve released over 100 recordings over the years, so many that even Jason can’t remember the names of them all, as you’ll hear! Potbelly is finally coming to the UK this summer and I’ll be playing with them at their first show in London in July with my band Swampstomper (more details will follow once the full line up is confirmed and announced. Jason has so many stories from seeing the cream of the Seattle grunge scene play tiny venues and house parties in the 80s and 90s to insights about the political environment of the US and the crazy goings on in his area during covid, as well as booking tours and touring in the days before the internet when you had to use maps and phone books! You can find Potbelly by visiting PIG Records and on Facebook as well as on ReverbNation as well as the other streaming sites. If you search for them look for the logo with the scary-looking cartoon pig!

    Pete Trainor Interview Round Up, News and Review for December
    Dec 31 2023
    Your host, Tom Austin-Morgan, is back on this episode of the Banned Biographies Podcast to let you know what's been going on and what you can expect on the next episode, which will be released next week. The news in this episode revolves around festival line up announcements, tour date announcements and cancellations, new album announcements, Ex Anti-Flag frontman, Justin Geever being sued for sexual assault, Crass releasing a picture book, Kevin 'Geordie' Walker from Killing Joke passing away, GWAR making a new film in which they save Earth from destruction, Shane MacGowan passing away, Spotify changing their royalties structure to stop two thirds of the songs on the platform from making money, Dead Kennedy's debut album reaching Gold status in the US 43 year after its release, and Manny Martinez (an original member of Misfits) passing away. I review singles and EPs release by Feeder, Gogol Bordello and Bernard Sumner, Cherym, Alkaline Trio, IDLES, Green Day, Sum 41, The Cult and Pendulum. However, there was only on album I was keeping an eye on to review this month: Just Before The World Starts Burning by The Sleeping Souls, a.k.a. Frank Turner's backing band. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday period, and a Happy New Year!
