Chip Chats - Kevin Kiley (LURK)

It's easy to write off LURK as a punk band but there's so much more to the Chicago band's music. Lead singer Kevin Kiley says in a press release that they were hoping for a Ramones-meets-Devo-meets-B52s-meets-Cramps sound and you can hear a little bit of all that on LURK's debut album, Around the Sun, out on September 17 (Pure Noise Records). Kevin shares what it was like to play a show just before the world shut down, what it's like getting back on stage now, venues in Chicago where he's seen cool shows, the hustle bands have to do around album releases and memories of Ohio.
