  • Episode 344: Power to the Panther: A Conversation with Kennedy Rice
    2024/11/22

    I spoke to Kennedy Rice about his journey with starting Panther Revival. Rice and I met at Compost Heap music festival and became friends through the national music community that Compost Heap brings to touring and local musicians. Rice and I talk about our experiences with relating to afrofuturism, new punk culture and today's politics with helping black voices have a presence in underground punk scenes. Learn more on Dreams Not Memes Podcast.


    Bio:

    Originating in the northeast Texas city of Greenville, Panther Revival live by their motto: Power to the Panther. Comprised of Kennedy Rice (vocals/guitar), Chris Edwards (drums) and Sam Boatner (bass), their righteous anger and focused desperation channeled itself into the release of their Punkerton Records debut, the full-length album "Animality". Described as "Body Count meets AFI meets La Dispute", Panther Revival brings a socially conscious voice against a darkly furious backdrop. The trio has been bringing their unique energy to various shows and festivals, screaming about the issues important to them (and even leaving stage during their set to mosh with the crowd!). With the release of their sophomore album, recorded in Arizona with producer Matt LeFevers, Panther Revival has no intentions of settling. Always and forever, Power to the Panther.

  • Episode 341: Create Your Community Before Your Career: A Conversation with Cheap Dirty Horse
    2024/10/31

    I spoke to Cheap Dirty Horse in Nottingham, England while on the A Day Without Horse Tour.

    This tour was special for many reasons, but this was also my first non US interview in person!

    I spoke to Fin, Lou, Amy and Ellen about the formation of the band, the values of community, reacting to internet trolls, and the importance of punk in today's late stage capitalistic society.

    Find out more on today's episode of Dreams Not Memes and check out their tunes!

    Bio

    Cheap Dirty Horse are a big rowdy queer trash folk-punk band from Nottingham. Blending acoustic and electric guitar with banjo, accordion, bass, drums, and sometimes mandolin, they write energetic, joyful protest music. They sing about trans rights, dead billionaires, and the importance of doing the things you love. They sing about grief, washing machines, and stealing shit.
