We’ve been big fans of Dispatch, since 1997’s “The General”. Wow, it just hit me, that was over 20 years ago. Their sound blends folk and reggae, and this trio, who are back at it in earnest after a tumultuous break, have never sounded better. We caught up with Chad who has many different pseudonyms to talk about Location 13, their political and social discourse and much more. 

Show Notes:

**First Song:** 01:18 – Cross the World

**Interview Begins:** 5:08

**Extro Song:** 24:32 - Letter to Lady J

Live 5 - April 10, 2024.

Amongst the jam bands that seem like they are always on the road are The Kitchen Dwellers. The Montana based quartet are part bluegrass or even jamgrass and part psychedelia. Their unique sound and that constant touring ethos has created quite a story to unpack. The Kitchen Dwellers released their fourth studio album “Seven Devils” a few weeks back, which gave a reason to catch up with Joe Funk, the band’s upright bass player. 



First song: Seven Devils (Limbo)

Second song: Pendulum (V)
