#285 Nathen Maxwell (Flogging Molly)

1h 9m · Life In The Stocks · 25 Apr 18:00

My good friend and fellow Flogging Molly shipmate Nathen Maxwell joins me for Episode 285 of Life In The Stocks. We talk about growing up in California, meeting Flogging Molly and joining the band, the history and friendships that exist there, the gratitude that Nathen has for been in a successful touring band, the Salty Dog Cruise, obviously, and Nathen's other musical project with his wife Shelby: Volores. We also get deep and talk about life and the human experience, as I like to do on the show, and we had a great time getting to know each better. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. Happy listening.

#322 Chris Catalyst (Sisters of Mercy/Ugly Kid Joe/Solo)

The Yorkshire tri-factor that began with Joe Elliott three weeks ago is now complete, as renowned gun for fire, underground guitar god, singer-songwriter, solo artist and all-round nice bloke Chris Catalyst joins me for Episode 322 of Life In The Stocks.

Chris has played with everyone from the Sisters of Mercy and Ghost to The Wildhearts and Ugly Kid Joe. He also has his own band Eureka Machines. And he's a prolific solo artist. And we try and cover as much ground as possible in the allotted time, from being a solo full-time creative person and the joys and perils that come with the territory to the inspirational power of music and the importance of a positive perspective on life and the world around you. It's an uplifting discussion and I hope you take something positive away from it.
