Striking A Chord with Stefan Babcock of PUP

STRIKING A CHORD WITH STEFAN BABCOCK OF PUP

In this episode Ernie Ball speaks with Stefan Babcock, lead singer and guitarist of the band PUP. Stefan discusses the Canadian music scene and the extent to which the US/Canada border acts as a musical divide. He also discusses lyrical inspiration, band chemistry, the dedication required to make music one's livelihood, and an experiment PUP ran: what happens when you provide the public with the chords and lyrics to a song they've never heard, and hundreds of fans record their own versions of what they think the song could sound like?
