Summary
This time we’re joined by the legendary Atom Willard, drummer for Alkaline Trio, ahead of the band’s appearance at Four Chord Music Festival. Atom takes us inside what’s ahead for Alkaline Trio and shares his memories of Pittsburgh, a city that’s played a role in his journey. We also get into his recent time in the studio with Travis Barker, his unforgettable experience when Rocket From The Crypt performed on Top of the Pops, and his incredible career spanning some of the most iconic bands in punk and alternative music. If you love stories from behind the kit, tales from the road, and insight into what it’s like to be part of so many influential projects, you won’t want to miss this one.
