Interview with Preston Edmands [Austin, TX] By Timothy Danger [audio:http://www.meltedzipper.com/podcastMusic/preston.mp3]  

Preston Edmands

Bio: I come from a small town on the border of southern Maine where, before moving out into the world and eventually to Austin, TX. I spent my childhood in a disconnected suburbia of farmers and artists. It was there that I would hear my first records; from my parents listening to The Beatles or Paul Simon, to the bass track of the latest Pavement record penetrating the wall between my brother’s room and my own.   The music was so enamoring, I couldn’t stop stealing my parents’ old 45s away for a listen. When I digested all I had from their collection, I began a tradition of biking down to my local record shop every week to sift through albums.   I’ve felt compelled to make music for as long as I can remember. Drawing on the fond influences of my youth, I became a musician.   Contact : Bandcamp Website Facebook
