We talk about how David got his start with music, all the way until today. We talk about all the tours and shows he has coming up and how much he enjoys being the opener.

Sweden’s premier emo band, Tribe Friday, is bringing their sophomore album, Hemma, to every alternative fan who needs to feel a little closer to places that shaped them. In fact, “hemma” in Swedish translates directly to “home.” Noah Deutschmann (vocals/guitar), Zack Liljeberg (drums), Isak Gunnarsson (guitar), and Robin Hanberger Pérez (bass) all confronted how this word has morphed with maturity.
