Shuga Podcast: Hello Ocho

We’re kicking off an interview series!  Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sitting down with artists, musicians, bands, etc. and talking to them about their art and what they do.

Last Friday, Hello Ocho joined me in my kitchen to talk about their tour, their forthcoming release In Portuguese and more.  If you haven’t listened to their 2014 release, head over to their bandcamp and give it a listen.  Tons of different sounds going on ranging from psych to folk to post-rock to you-name-it.  Click here to listen or swing by the shop and pick it up on vinyl!

We also talked about the making of their music video for Party on a Raincloud” which is below.  Quick NSFW warning for nudity, so maybe save it until you get home if that’s a worry.

They have a few more days on their tour, so if you can see them GO SEE THEM:

10/23 – Carbondale, IL @ Skihaus
10/24 – Nashville @ Stonefox https://www.facebook.com/events/1914070022151902/
