Joe Boynton (Transit, narrowcast.)
Manage episode 421163175 series 3428191
Joe Boynton is the singer of legendary pop punk band, Transit. This is a special episode for our host, Alessandro DeCaro, as Boynton is one of his biggest musical influences. In this interview, Boynton walks through the entire Transit discography in detail - outlining the thought process for each record, what was going on in their lives, and what was the dynamic of the band as a whole.
Boynton is now a part of shoegaze indie duo, narrowcast., who have just released a new EP on October 28th on Firestarter Records.
Transit fans are finally getting the answers they've been waiting for since the band's disbanding. We can't think of a better first guest for the debut episode of EMOlition Derby.
This episode is dedicated to Tim Landers.
