Ep. #1061: Pelican

Trevor Shelley de Brauw from Pelican is here to discuss the band’s album, Flickering Resonance, our history of working together because of his role in music publicity, the city of Chicago’s music dynamism, a brief foray into North Carolina farming, how guitar teachers underestimate Ramones songs, seeing significant shows at Fireside Bowl as a teenager, the antagonistic antics of Tusk, where Pelican came from and why its original line-up reunited, why I think every band should break up so they can miss the band and then appreciate it more when it gets back together, temporality and self-awareness, working as a music publicist, the future of Pelican, and much more! A note that since Trevor and I recorded this interview, Run For Cover released a new EP by Pelican called Ascending on January 23, 2026.
