The Struggle is Real – Episode #81 with Fuzzy and the Rustbelts

On episode #81 of the Struggle is Real Buffalo Music Podcast, Ryan and Cassidy sit down with three-fifths of local Americana/folk group Fuzzy and the Rustbelts. We talk about the formation of their band, their favorite venues to play, Starbucks’ top-secret “Medicine Ball” tea, the roof of Showplace Theater falling on pop-punks, the band’s doom/sludge roots, and much more! We also play music by Fuzzy and the Rustbelts and Tr38cho, talk about our fancy, brand-new digs at The Guitar Factory, and cover a slate of previous and upcoming concerts.
