“….when we were asked what we had in mind….this guy (Adam) looked at them straight faced and said ‘We want to be the biggest band in the world’. These guys looked at us, looked at each other and said ‘Ok! but we are going to have to play to each of your strengths’…” - Jon Sookdewsing, vocalist

Pistols at Dawn is the latest independent rock band taking the Billboard charts by storm with their latest single, "Bones"! Nic Beardsley got a chance to catch up with guitarist, Will James, vocalist, Jon Sookdewsing, and bassist, Gabe Cuevas, to discuss how being authentic speaks volumes in a saturated social algorithm, learned about some influential artists in their lives, get hints at what 2025 holds in store for the band, and much more! Oh! and shout out to the anchor of the band who couldn't make it on this interview - Adam Jaffe!

Nic has known Jon and Gabe for a while from working together on their prog-metal project, Luxrem, so to finally bring them on the podcast and meet Will felt like a full circle experience and a long time coming. Much love <3
