Episode Notes

Greg Marquis is the vocalist of Boston-area post-hardcore mainstays Actor|Observer, who record for the No Sleep label. He also spearheads (Allston-Brighton) Artist Impact, a civic organization advocating for working class creative people in the Boston metro area. We talk at length about those grassroots political efforts, but also discuss the pay-what-you-want digital download pricing scheme, majoring in Music Industry in college, getting your mom on board with Slipknot and much more.
