Sparks: "Ron has a lyrical knack for being able to take mundane situations and elevate them to another level."

Sparks

Sparks lead singer Russell Mael gives Kyle Meredith a shout to discuss the band’s new record, A Steady Drip Drip Drip. The two dig into how some of the songs have already found new relevance during the current pandemic, how one new song in particular speaks to an older classic regarding climate change, and the band’s excellent use of swearing. Mael also gives the scoop on an upcoming musical starring Adam Driver that the band wrote as well as a documentary on their history filmed and produced by Edgar Wright.

Listen to the interview above and then check out the videos below.

Kyle is the WFPK Music Director. Email Kyle at kmeredith@lpm.org
