Bob Mould Talks Sugar Reunion, Hüsker Dü, Hedwig, more

We've got a great episode for you today as punk and alt-rock icon Bob Mould is here to talk all things Sugar. The trio, who originally existed from 1992 through early 1995, will play their first show in 31 years on May 2 in NYC which kick-starts reunion tour that runs through the fall. Bob tells us how the Sugar reunion came to be, their very loud shows, the pros and cons of earplugs, being a Williamsburg, Brooklyn pioneer in the early '90s, being signed to Creation Records in the UK, the prospect of more music from Sugar, and more. We also discuss music documentaries, that time Bob joined Militarie Gun on stage to play a Hüsker Dü song, the possibility of Hüsker Dü studio album reissues, his solo band's rhythm section's growing side hustle as an REM tribute act, his involvement with the Hedwig & The Angry Inch movie and more. -- Credits: Hosted & produced by Bill Pearis Mixed and mastered by Nick Gray Theme music by Michael Silverstein Photo: Beau Sorensen
