One's a fearless frontman, at the helm of one of the liveliest and most exciting bands in post-hardcore, letlive. The other is a shredder of the highest order, having served as a sturdy sideman in Every Time I Die for nearly 20 years. Their respective bands teamed up for a co-headlining run in January of 2017 around the second annual Unify festival - and just before they played to a packed Metro Theatre in Sydney, Jason Aalon Butler and Andy Williams took Bar Bands on a dinner date; figuratively recording on the go in the back of a 12-seater. We talk wrestling (naturally), early bands, childhood performances and going crazy on stage.

Low Teens and If I'm the Devil... by Every Time I Die and letlive., respectively, are out now via Epitaph.

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
