MUSIC INTERVIEW: Life On The Road With…All Them Witches

We caught up with psych-rock experimentalists All Them Witches surrounding the release of their fifth studio album ATW and their USA tour to hear their stories from the road.

Favourite thing about touring:

Crushing a show.

Least favourite thing about touring:

Checking into the hotel at 3am.

Five essentials for the road:

WATER, skateboards, bathing suit, big comfy headphones, a great Tour Manager.

Your favourite way to pass the time:

Either skateboarding or playing acoustic guitar.

“The Most”

Memorable moment:

I got to hand Larry LaLonde from Primus one of his guitars on stage because his tech was super cool.

Hilarious moment:

Anytime Robby tries to cross the border.

Embarrassing moment:

Getting robbed in Buffalo, NY. We deserved it.

Outrageous moment:

Driving ourselves on our first Europe tour. Bad idea.

Drunken moment:

We got smashed with Kadavar at Essenhaus in Madison Wisconsin. Couldn’t even walk back to where we were staying.

Rewarding moment:

The first time we played in Athens Greece.


ATW is due for release on the 28th September via New West Records, available to purchase HERE.
