    A Message From Zach

    Hello! Zach here with a wrap on season 7. I still can’t believe I’ve been able to sit down with friends, family and strangers and chat about the thing I love most.... guitars, gear and music! Music has benefitted my life in countless ways and you, the listeners, have supported me on this journey. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I also send this season off by re-introducing myself and letting you know where I stand outside of the music world. Thank you! Until next season!

    Today is another “family time” episode here at the ol’ Anti-Heroes podcast! My is guest is Joe Principe, bassist of Rise Against and formerly of 88 Fingers Louie. I’ve seen the world with this guy and have had countless adventures and played countless shows and recorded countless songs together! These episodes are always near and dear to me and I think you’ll hear that. I also had to pretend that I didn't know all the answers to my questions ahead of time! We talk about his early days discovering music and specifically punk rock and early influences. We get into how to find your own voice on your instrument and the constant pursuit of tone (which were both still doing) and much,much more! We also get to talk about our new album, Ricochet, which will be out August 15th! I’ve been meaning to have Joe on since the early days of this podcast and even though we basically live together we’ve never made it happen so this one is very special!
