This is an episode with two of the folks from the 1998 post-punk shoegazy band from San Diego! To Change the Shape of an Envelope is a well regarded record and Solid Brass has given it a wonderful 25 year anniversary release complete with new artwork by Sonny Kay. So how better to celebrate than to speak to Michelle (keyboards) and singer/frontman/loose cannon Russell White about old records, old times, and lots, lots more. It’s a loose and hilarious episode with two folks from a great band!
