Seas. 4 - Ep. 14 - Fronting Punk Rock Supergroup Fire Sale & Tips On a Music Career with Pedro Aida

Author: Powered By Rock June 5, 2023 Duration: 1:00:00

Hello and welcome to the Powered By Rock podcast where I am going to be speaking with Pedro Aida of the supergroup punk band Fire Sale.

Fire Sale may be a pretty new band, but the members of the band are anything but punk rock newbs. 

The band consists of Matt Riddle of Face to Face, Pulley and No Use For A Name fame, Chris Swinney formerly of The Ataris, Matt Morris and Pedro Aida from Ann Beretta.

I have the privilege and honor of speaking with Pedro who is the lead vocalist for Fire Sale today to talk about the new 2-song EP they just released and to talk about some of the inner workings of working in a punk band these days.
