On today's episode, I'm extremely excited to be speaking with Mr. Ted Bond, singer of melodic punk rock band Craig's Brother.
I've been a fan of Craig's Brother for over 20 years now. I discovered them on the Tooth & Nail compilation "Songs from The Penalty Box".
Craig's Brother has a really fascinating career arc, and we talk all about it.
Ted opens up about what it's like to be ostracized by not only your label, but also by members of the Christian music scene in general.
We talk about the history of the band, and we discuss what it was like to make a new full length at this stage of their career as a band.
I learned a ton in this talk. I had so many things I wanted ask him and he was gracious in giving me really thoughtful answers. We talk about Ryan Key from Yellowcard joining the band and the cross-connection between the two bands. We talk about Lost at Sea. We talk about getting records shelved and sent back from stores because a song discusses masturbation. We talk about it all.
I hope you find this conversation as illuminating as I did.
Craig's Brother is an American punk rock band. They have released three full-length recordings internationally, two on Tooth & Nail Records and one self-released.
Craig's Brother are currently on People of Punk Rock Records and they have a new full length being released on November 11th, 2022.
