Episode 97 - Eddie Argos (Art Brut)

"Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential musicians of the 80s and 90s and where they are today. On this podcast, we’ll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in that book, as well as other artists I love and admire. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring. I’m so excited to have Eddie Argos on the show this week! As the frontman for Art Brut, he turned autobiographical oversharing into an art form — writing songs about his little brother, an old flame named Emily, and the joy of forming a band. Twenty years after the debut record Bang Bang Rock & Roll, the band are still going strong.  Today, he tells us about the unexpected thing that changed him maybe more than music ever did.
