By the time Andy Hull was 19, he was known among teenaged music fans as one of the scene's most admired singer-songwriters. But being the frontman of the venerated emo band Manchester Orchestra hasn't been all smooth sailing. On this week's pod, Hull talks about the growing pains he suffered as a rock and roll prodigy who had played Radio City Music Hall before he could legally drink. Hull also discusses how Manchester Orchestra reinvented itself on its latest album, "A Black Mile To The Surface."

Rock Critic Steven Hyden ("Your Favorite Band Is Killing Me", "Twilight Of The Gods") talks with rock stars and the country’s biggest music writers about what’s happening in rock. Presented by 93X (www.93X.com) and Uproxx.com (http://uproxx.com/music/)
