Talks! Episode 29 - Simon Strivelli (THE COMMONWEALTH)
This week, my sometimes Ed McMahon, Eric Huskins (Van Huskins), and I sat down with Simon Strivelli of The Commonwealth here at Flamin' Head Studios (home of GGH... I'm sure the story of the name will come soon!). We talk about his musical journey, including his time in bands such as Gobstopper, Chalkies, Ghosts of Bannockburn, and Bottle of Smoke, the importance of rhythm guitarists, the oxymoron of the term "pop punk", and more!
