I recently had the opportunity to speak with Steve Rawles from the legendary Canadian punk band Belvedere. We talked about the band getting back together, upcoming tours, and their longevity. But the subject matter took a meaningful turn when the conversation landed on fatherhood and navigating that while in the music industry. We also dove into the hidden Canadian Indgenocide against Indigenous people that took place in their Residential schools at the hands of the Government and Catholic church. This podcast runs for about 20 minutes. It's a great fit for a short drive or lunch break.

On episode 15 of the Cry About It podcast we talk to ENCI records recording artist Kulick. He opens up about his hearing impairment and the unique way he's navigated being a partially deaf musician. He also details how he signed to a major label without ever touring, we talk life in small coal towns, how commercial success is not "selling out," and how he's reimagined his debut full-length album as an acoustic album.
