 6. Name a band that we might not have heard of yet but we should definitely check out? 

Most obscure stuff I know is from Atlanta so you probably have heard of it. But if not: Quiet Hounds, The Book Club, and Cloudeater are all great.

7. What’s been the most exciting thing about 2012 for you so far and what do you have to look forward to?

Hopefully two or three new records. I’m serious. And I’ll be producing several records for other folks. It’s all in the works.
