Michael Flanagan: Would you please tell people some significant things about Holy Wave:
Holy Wave:
Were just 5 normal American dudes who like rock and roll music. and trance music.
MF: Could you talk about Reverberation Appreciation Society and how you teamed up with them:
HW:
Well I guess they kinda like us. Maybe? I dunno. A few of the dudes started coming out to a couple of our shows and I guess they dug it. So they put out an older LP of ours and they’re putting out a new LP for us which people can hear this fall.
MF: Ive found out that the band is originally from El Paso, a border city, similar to McAllen. How do the issues that exist in border area’s influence you?:
HW:
Yes we’re very much from El Paso. Unfortunately were not very influenced by the issues happening in border areas, probably because its usually a bummer.
MF: Could you name some art (music, film, painting, food, writing ect…) that youd like to turn people on too.:
HW:
dope, burgers, listen to low times/hidden ritual/smoking white/the zoltars
MF: Could you talk about Burger Records and your relationship with them:
HW:
Yeah, I’m sure they wouldn’t mind.
