Zack Lawson's Journey with The Dead Lennies

This episode covers Zack Lawson, who contributes guitar and vocals to the Lansing, Michigan based band The Dead Lennies. The group is also composed of Spiz on guitar and Nate Smith on bass.
.
The conversation ranges from how the band got started, Zack’s creative influences, whether they be musicians or authors, and ultimately how those two types of creators influence what The Dead Lennies do creatively. Spoiler alert, the band name itself is in fact a reference to John Steinbeck’s novella Of Mice and Men.
