Episode notes
This week, we talk with Brendan Canty. He’s best known as the drummer for the punk rock band Fugazi, but he’s also made his name as a record and film producer. We talk about his high concept music DVD series “Burn to Shine.” Each DVD features a group of bands representing a regional rock scene, each of which play a song in a house that’s slated to be burned down by the fire department. Brendan says he hopes each DVD captures a moment in the music scene of a certain place.
We also talk about how Brendan feels about making a new career after 17 years with Fugazi, and about being a rock & roll dad.
