• Things I Can't Forget #10 - Pick and Choose

  The Slackers podcast is back!  Horn section, Dave Hillyard and Glen Pine join JJ and Matt to talk about their new single, "What We Gonna Do Now?" / "Pick and Choose" on Pirates Press Records. Released to coincide with 2024 US Presidential Election, the new single deals in themes of freedom, democracy and justice. We also find ourselves thinking a lot about communication this time… connecting with live audiences, finding the clearest lyrics and expressing thoughts through horn solos.  And we get a little mushy trying to figure out how The Slackers really feel about each other.
