Run For Cover Records | Run For Cover Podcast Episode 02: Citizen - Youth with Nick Hamm @runforcovertube | Uploaded 3 weeks ago | Updated 16 hours ago
Episode 2 of the RFC Pod is a discussion on Citizen’s 2013 debut album Youth with guitarist Nick Hamm. Youth is a monumental album in the RFC catalog that turned ten years old last year, which the band marked with a deluxe reissue & a summer’s worth of sold out album play-through shows across the US. While the album has an enduring legacy because of its raw, emotional sound and iconic album art, none of what followed was ever what was expected for Citizen when they started playing music together.
Nick took time to chat with us while on tour this summer to reflect on how the earliest version of Citizen formed at a sleepover & how the band eventually ended up linking with Run For Cover. We also discuss recording Youth at Studio 4, what parts of the album he still loves to listen to, turning Citizen into a career band, how the band’s lifelong friendship with Turnover started & endures, the phenomenon of siblings starting bands in this scene of musicians, and what bands to check out if you like Citizen.
The Run For Cover Podcast is a limited series event celebrating 20 years of Run For Cover. Join us for a series of interviews with artists on the roster about the records that have shaped the first two decades of RFC. Hosted by Bob Shedd of @axetogrindpodcast with label co-hosts Jeff, Dane & producer Bryan.
