173. Big D And The Kids Table: David McWane Talks Ska & Emo Ties & The Good Ole American Saturday Night | Emo Kids Anonymous

Welcome to EKA173! Today we are joined by David McWane of Big D And The Kids Table! Poor David was having to go to war with his internet during this interview, so we had quite a few technical difficulties but we did our best to clean it up for your listening and viewing pleasure. In this interview we discuss the bands new album, The Good Ole American Saturday Night, which came out last month on Sideonedummy records. We talk about his and the bands relationship with the label, the making of the record and what fans should expect. Dave gives us some backstory on his personal introduction to ska, the state of the genre today, as well as his metal upbringing. We talk touring, band logistics and their time on the Vans Warped Tour.Our favorite part though was David's emo history and personal tales he told us. This is Emo Kids Anonymous after all, and Dave came ready for the occasion! It was an absolute pleasure being joined by Mr. McWane, a true legend in ska and a friend of emo! Go check out their new record The Good Ole American Saturday Night!-------------------------------------Thanks for watching, please subscribe to our show for more content!With multiple new episodes every week, Emo Kids Anonymous is your home for emo and everything else.
