Podcast appearances and mentions of sol patches

little bear is having a hell of a whirlwind week here in Chicago. Between Pitchfork pop-ins, studio sessions, press, a backyard release party for their new EP Needs on Thursday, and playing in the house band at the third annual Chicago Poetry Block Party, the Bronx-based electrabrasspop artist is on the run, and enjoying every minute. Their new EP features AirGo alums the Burns Twins and Sol Patches, and the Chicago connections run deep (their brother just happens to be AirGo cohost Kiss). With Damon out of town, the two brothers talk music, next steps, shared childhood, and more. Recorded live 7/26/18 at WHPK 88.5FM in Chicago Music from this week's show: Private Parts - @littlebearsoundslike Needs - @littlebearsoundslike Home - @littlebearsoundslike
