The Issue & The Ivins (bands)
Episode description
Episode 108- The Issue & The Ivins! This is double episode where I interview members of two bands! First up is Clay Deters, frontman of the band The Issue. They are a hard rock band from Minnesota and have a new single that just dropped today called “What You Need”. Then I talk to Jim and Jack Ivins of the alternative rock band The Ivins. We discuss everything from Jack playing football with Russell Wilson to what a “minnow bomb” is. They also have a new single on the way called “Don’t.” Both interviews were a lot of fun!
