Greg Webber of Kill Chicago on The Next, Songwriting, and Making Art With Friends

Greg Webber of Kill Chicago joins The Radical Fabulatorium for a long-form conversation about the band’s new record *The Next,* available now! We discuss the recording process, working with Don Levandier, writing songs without worrying whether they sound “Kill Chicago enough,” and the experience of making a record with no compromises. Greg also talks about the importance of adults continuing to make art with their friends, the creative roles inside the band, the stories behind songs like “Through the Walls” and “E over G,” and how Kill Chicago keeps expanding its sound while staying rooted in the same four people making music together. We also get into Greg’s life as a music teacher and conductor, how that compares to being the frontman of a rock band, his early musical path through Fredericton, French Immersion, all-ages shows, Dionisus, Bucket Truck, and the long road toward making songs that are fully his own. Kill Chicago’s new record *The Next* is available now on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms.
