About Question The Answers

There's a lot going on in the independent music scene, and always has been. Question The Answers illuminates some of the people involved, and not just the musicians. Hosted by Andy Pohl (Tsunami Bomb | Sell The Heart Records), each episode he has a chat with the folks that run the labels that put out the albums, the people that take the photos you see online and in print, the people that set up and promote the shows you attend, and more. The scene is made up of such a huge array of creative people, all working together to make it happen, and we're here to celebrate them all.

   Lauren Denitzio - Worriers

   Lauren Denitzio is the driving force behind the band Worriers. They began the band after having been in another band called The Measure, and have now released 3 full-length albums along with a few EPs, most recently a 5-song album of cover songs featuring their take on Rancid, Tom Petty, The New Pornographers and more. Now in their 10th year of existence, Worriers has established themselves as a true standout in the current punk scene, and have been able to partner with labels like No Idea, 6131, Don Giovanni, Side One Dummy along with self-releasing material. On top of this, they have worked with some really fantastic producers including Laura Jane Grace and John Agnello. The band is essentially Lauren's project, and is currently backed by Nick Psillas on bass and Mikey Erg on drums and Frank Piegaro (formerly of the band Ensign) on guitar. As Lauren describes in the episode, having a certain fluidity in the make up of the band has allowed them to take on more opportunities and not be as restricted by what sometimes conventional band structures might otherwise hinder. Currently living in Los Angeles, Lauren has roots in the East Coast having grown up in New Jersey and living in Brooklyn for many years after attending college. Besides performing full time in Worriers, They have an established career in illustration and design, which we talk about during the episode.

   Riot Squad Media

   Our guest today is Terry Smith, one half of the core team at Riot Squad Media. Herself and co-founder Laura Rose formed the multi-faceted agency out of a shared love for the music scene, punk rock, and a desire to contribute to them utilizing their strengths. Part PR agency, part website and design shop, part promotions group, Riot Squad Media kinda do it all. As Terry shares in the episode, they met while attending a music festival and became fast friends. Though she is located in Canada and Laura is in New York, the two of them have been able to stay connected and bring a lot to the punk scene. For example, every week they contribute a video which showcases two albums that they are currently stoked on, called Sunday Spin. This year, they are endeavoring on a major music festival, Camp Punksylvania. The fest features headliners Voodoo Glow Skulls, Bigwig, The Queers and Blanks 77, along with about 20 other bands! The logistics behind making this kind of thing work are pretty intense, as Terry attests, but they are up for the challenge!

   Neckscars

   Neckscars are a four-piece post-hardcore band based out of New York City, with members living in the Northern side of the greater metro area. Having come together back in 2019 as long time friends and occasional bandmates, they have culminated in putting together a sound that is familiar to fans of Hot Water Music, Nothington, Leatherface & Seaweed, but they are far from a carbon copy of any of those bands. Principal songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Will Romeo and guitarist/backing vocalist Justin Parish join the podcast today to discuss the band's new album, Don't Panic, and also give us an insight into the beginnings of the band and where they are headed. The individual members of the band each perform in other projects alongside Neckscars, and are veterans of the music scene, showing a maturity in their songwriting and overall approach to the craft. During the pandemic, the band opted to push forward with the release of the album, partnering up with Sell The Heart Records (hey, that's us!!) and Engineer Records (UK). The album has seen some high praise, and with shows starting to slowly return, they have already gotten to work with shows in their home area with homies Jukebox Romantics, American Thrills, Oh! The Humanity and more, and they are certainly eager to get the band on the road. To hear or buy the new album Don't Panic - https://neckscars.bandcamp.com/album/...
