My guest for this episode is Riverside keyboardist Michal Lapaj! The excellent Polish heavy prog rockers toured extensively for the outstanding 2023 album ID.Entity, and that has resulted in the recent release of a new live album, Live ID. Michal talks about the tour, a bit about the making of the live album and ID. Entity, the loss of guitarist Piotr Grudzinski, his musical beginnings, how he ended up in Riverside, and more.
