Inside Music Podcast #88: Chris Farren Returns!

On this episode of Inside Music, host James Shotwell calls Chris Farren to discuss his upcoming SideOneRecords debut album, ’Can’t Die’. This episode marks Chris’ second appearance on the show, and together with James he details the artists that influenced his latest recordings, his fast-approaching one year wedding anniversary, Jeff Rosenstock, and how he copes with the understanding life is shorter than most of us would like it to be. There is talk of death and the futility of existence, but don’t let that get you down! This is one of our favorite discussion in some time, and we hope it encourages you to support Chris as he begins the next chapter of his already prolific career in music.

The music you hear in this episode of the show is “Still Beating,” which can be found on Chris Farren’s new album, Can’t Die (out September 2).

Inside Music Podcast #7 – Chris Farren (Fake Problems / Antarctigo Vespucci)

I think we have finally reached a point where we can confidently say that we will release a new episode of our podcast 2-4 times every month. It would be great if we could guarantee every single week, but right now we don’t want to commit to more than we know we can complete. If you keep listening, we will keep recording, and in time there will be more hours of conversation than we know how to properly handle. That’s what we call a ‘good problem,’ and we welcome it with open arms.

This blog exists to promote the future of the entertainment industry, and to do that we need input from people like you and your entertainment-loving friends. If you have any questions about the content in this article, or if you have an artist you would like to see featured on this blog, please contact james@haulix.com. We can also be found on Twitter and Facebook.

The latest episode of Inside Music features very special guest Chris Farren, founding member of the Florida based punk outfit Fake Problems, co-founder of Antarctigo Vespucci, and someone my mom knows best for creating funny t-shirts. Chris has been a prominent member of the music scene since the mid-2000s, and in this interview he tells us about finding his footing in music, starting his bands, preparing to tour with Koji, the potential for a future solo album, and much, much more.

I’ve been familiar with Chris’ work for many years, but for whatever reason our paths never crossed until we connected over Skype to complete this interview. I walked away with a better understanding of what drives Chris to work as hard as he does, as well as a strong sense of excitement for the numerous plans he has for the future.

The music you hear at the beginning of this episode is take from “Don’t Die In Yr Hometown” by Antarctigo Vespucci.

If you would like to connect with Chris and learn more about his adventures in music, please make it a point to follow him on Twitter.
