Interview: “WACO” - The Scratch Cast: The Interviews - Episode 03

The Scratch Cast: The Alternative Music Podcast

For the third Scratch Cast interview, Grant and Snedds have the pleasure of catching up with Jak and Welshy from the genre-bending punk band WACO.

We ask about the band’s brilliant new album Hope Rituals and Jak and Welshy open up on their interstellar idiosyncrasies and a whole host of other topics including their charity singles, how positivity influences their music, what they miss about gigs and whether we’re alone in the universe.

We had a proper laugh chatting to these guys and hope you enjoy the interview as much as we did!
