In today's episode, Izzy catches up with Sam Sumpter, the founder of the blog Bands do BK, and author of the book of the same name. Both the book and blog serve as a guide to the Brooklyn music scene by and for musicians. Izzy and Sam discuss their favorite live music-related memories, the beauty of getting immersed in local scenes, and how music can help us find community in a city as isolating and fast-paced as New York.
