The War on Drugs joins host Stephen Kallao

In 2017, The War on Drugs won Best Rock Album at the Grammys for their project, A Deeper Understanding. Now four years later, they’re back with the follow-up record titled I Don’t Live Here Anymore. Frontman Adam Granduciel joins host Stephen Kallao to talk about the making of the album during the pandemic, including the multiple studios they recorded in, and how even his two-year-old son provided some engineering help. Plus, the band shares live performances of some of the new music.
