Facing personal trials with strength and a dash of humor, Chris Whited of Bodysnatcher joins me to discuss his music and much more!
Chris doesn't hold back as we explore the haunting inspirations behind Bodysnatcher's name and dive into the band's roots. Yet, amid this darkness, the light of heartfelt tributes shines through in their latest single, "Dead Rabbit," reminding us of the power of music to heal and honor those we've lost. Our talk on band dynamics and the sheer logistics of touring exposes the underworld of tour management, from the evolution of a merch guy into a tour manager to the intricacies of coordinating merchandise logistics on the road.
As we wrap up, there's a palpable sense of excitement for what's on the horizon for Bodysnatcher. With tours planned out till March of 2025, the anticipation for unannounced projects adds an electric charge to the conversation. If you're a musician seeking to collaborate, Chris's invitation through 1776 Recordings is a call to action. Join us for an episode that's a compelling mix of life lessons, laughter, and the relentless drive of rock, all wrapped up in the candid stories of Chris Whited.
