Podcast: Ben Disaster

I recently met up with 23-year-old Edmonton punk Ben Disaster to talk about lots of things; his forthcoming solo record and his recent solo tour; his main project, local punks Let’s Dance!, their upcoming show as part of this weekend’s Unrest Fest at New City Suburbs, and Ben’s winking admission that if you wanted to get into the semantics of it, you could say that Chumbawamba actually opened for Let’s Dance! at last weekend’s Punx Picnic, and not the other way around.

Enjoy! And if you’re looking for something to do tonight, check out Ben and the rest of the Let’s Dance! crew at New City. They’re pretty badass.
