Ep. #1021: Hotline TNT

Will Anderson from Hotline TNT is here to discuss their new album, Raspberry Moon, his love of Canada and why he almost lived here forever, moving to New York City only a few months before the COVID-19 pandemic started and how the isolation of that time bolstered his DIY ethic, a line-up shake-up, his Association Update fanzine and our love and criticism of the NBA, streaming strangeness and why he pulled his band’s catalogue from Spotify, world-building in his songs, a loving nod to Dinosaur Jr. and Prince, tour, other future plans, and much more.
