This is Part 1 of the Aaron Gillespie podcast. In this half we talk about the start of Underoath, his first impressions of all of the members, the specific moment he knew the band was going to be big, and them writing ‘They’re Only Chasing Safety’ during a band rehearsal.
The episode was SO good that we ended up talking for over two hours, so this one is split in half. Part 2 will be about his personal journey as an artist including a wild chapter of his life playing drums for Paramore, his success as a songwriter, his hopeful views on the future of music, what personally inspires him and the next era of Underoath and what’s to come.
