Description
This week on The Record Process, we’re joined by lead vocalist, bassist, and songwriter Mike Herrera of the legendary punk rock band MXPX. Mike breaks down how the band has evolved and developed across a career spanning over 3 decades. He goes deep into how the band decided to navigate the pandemic lock-downs by curating interactive livestream events. He also explains how these livestreams ultimately acted as a way for MXPX to test out new song ideas in front of fans before they were officially recorded. He details how his writing process has changed over the years, and how all these factors impacted what would come to be the band's 11th studio album titled “Find A Way Home” - which was released on August 25th, 2023.9:40: Being authentic and continuing to write for yourself13:00 - Trusting your gut:34:40 - Using our livestreams to test songs1:02:30 - How technology has changed how he writesHave a question?
