Ep 48 Ex Strypes drummer Evan Walsh & his new project The Savage Hearts
The Savage Hearts is the new project of Evan Walsh, former drummer of The Strypes. Episode 48 finds us chatting with him deep in the Cavan countryside as he casts his mind back to his formative musical experiences and influences; and brings us right up to date with the imminent release of The Savage Hearts' debut vinyl single Gang War/Speed Kills.
Evan is passionate, enthusiastic and all about the music. Listen as he tells us about how he nearly missed out on The Letterman Show; his Dr Feelgood obsession; how for him Cavan is the Canvey Island of Ireland; find out who Eddie Cruizer is, and get the inside scoop on new single Gang War.
