81: Derek Zanetti (the Homeless Gospel Choir) - Round 2 - This Land is Your Landfill

I'm stoked to bring back Derek Zanetti of the Homeless Gospel Choir for our SECOND conversation of this podcast - nearly 2.5 years since our first chat. If you’d like to like to listen to our first conversation from Dec of 2017, click here!

Zanetti writes protest songs that are meant to make people think and find some form of comfort during these troublesome times. The Pittsburgh, PA-based musician has been creating tunes and touring the world for over a decade and his new album is his first since creating a full-band for touring. “This Land is Your Landfill” further exemplifies Zanetti’s witty yet unabashedly earnest songwriting, which is a constant source of community building within his circles. This conversation focuses a lot on the album, as well as meanders into very political spaces, which makes sense given the moment we’re currently living in. Hope you dig it! I had fun and I think you will too.
