What’s Your Niche? – Episode July 24, 2025

Episode 88. Featuring my interview with the great CORY HANSON of Wand, on the day before the release of his new solo album "I Love People" released by the great Drag City Records. Me and Cory discuss his amazing new album, how I Love People is a lot like his Full Moon Fever or Wildflowers, plus there's A LOT of Lou Reed talk, tied to the brilliant song named after him from the album. Me and Cory discuss LULU and much more deep Lou cuts! This is one of my favourite interviews in the history of What's Your Niche so LISTEN (and also catch Cory and Wand performing in Calgary at the Palomino on Monday, September 8th, with the great Window Lamp Corp and Ryan Bourne & Plant City Band supporting!)
