Kowloon Walled City (Scott Evans and Jon Howell)

For this episode, Brian and Sean spoke to Scott Evans (guitar/vocals) and Jon Howell (guitar) of Oakland CA’s titans of spacious and crushing metal, Kowloon Walled City. They’re a longtime favorite of ours and a band that we've been circling since the earliest days of the fest so it’s a huge deal for us to finally be bringing them out for their first-ever Denver show.We talk about the history of the band, the challenges of making time for writing and touring opportunities between families and day jobs, Scott’s work as a recording engineer at his Antisleep Audio studio, joining the Neurot Recordings family and the endless fount of inspiration that is PJ Harvey.Kowloon Walled City will be headlining our Saturday, August 29th show at Hi-Dive along with Moor Mother, Water Damage and more. Tickets are available at ghostcanyonfest.com.This episode features clips from "Clockwork" from Gambling On The Richter Scale (2009) and "Backlit" from Grievances (2015). Both are available at https://kowloonwalledcity.bandcamp.com/'Piecework' video by Melyssa Anishnabiehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCYEbeKsa-4&list=RDfCYEbeKsa-4&start_radio=1Amps In The Room, featuring live performances from Pile, Strangelight, Lorrrel and morehttps://www.youtube.com/@ampsintheroomPresented by Wax Trax Records
