What fun it was to catch up with Van McCann and Bondy from Catfish and The Bottlemen on Sunday at our first Free Summer Block Party of 2019. It was a celebration of summer and music - their new album "The Balance" came out just a couple months back.
Some highlights from our conversation:
What exactly is the toucan on the cover of the album drinking? (My interpretation is that he looks a bit dazed) "He's drinking up the songs on the album" - Van
Current obsessions:
-Van: Top Golf!
-Bondy : Photography - he just bought an old Pentax camera and is just about finished with his very first roll of film (hoping maybe he'll have it developed this week, in time for Catfish and The Bottlemen to do a Radio 104.5 Instagram Takeover)
All that and more when you dig in to our full backstage conversation, below.
Don't miss their return to Philly - a Radio 104.5 show at The Met on September 28th. Presale starts at 10am tomorrow (Thursday 6/27) and public on sale starts Friday at 10am.
