Leigh Kakaty of Pop Evil

Pop Evil has been making pulse-pounding rock with a positive message for 20 years now, defying the long odds every step of the way. Bands aren't supposed to break out in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and they're not supposed to pay their dues playing covers, but frontman Leigh Kakaty knew better than to head for a coast and abandon their support system, and those covers paid the bills. It was rough going, especially when their major label deal went horribly wrong, but this is a resilient bunch, and struggle only seems to strengthen their resolve and fuel their musical fires.

On this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Kakaty talks about some of their key tracks and explains the band's philosophy. On May 21, 2021, Pop Evil release their latest album, Versatile.
