FFF Preview: Blake Schwarzenbach
I feel like this might be one of the two artists I feel the most involved with at Fun Fun Fun Fest. Â I know for a large group of my friends, not to mention others I’ve talked to, that Blake Schwarzenbach has been a huge part of our musical education. Â For me, it started with his role in Jawbreaker; they were one of the group’s I couldn’t get enough of as a late teenager. Â Then, as I grew up, my tastes expanded, as did his when he began work on Jets to Brazil. Â And most recently, he’s been working with Forgetters, which I’ve grown to like after belated listening. Â However, I can’t honestly say that I have any idea what he’s going to bring to the table at FFF; I’ve heard he’s pretty against playing any Jawbreaker tunes, so I’ll just hope for my favorite JTB tunes. Â No matter what you’re into nowadays, it’d be hard to go back and ignore the huge influence Blake’s had on so many acts that followed. Hit the play traingle for a pair of my favorite Blake related tunes from Jets to Brazil and Jawbreaker.
He plays at 6:25 on the Yellow Stage on Friday, November 8th.
