Episode 99: A Conversation with Benny Horowitz of The Gaslight Anthem/Mercy Union

In our 99th episode, we’re joined by Benny Horowitz, Drummer of The Gaslight Anthem and Mercy Union. Benny is a 90s OG, having booked and played shows for over 25 years at this point. We dig into Benny’s DIY roots in the NJ punk/hardcore scene, the start of The Gaslight Anthem, signing to SideOneDummy, eventually signing to a major label and everything that comes with it — and much more. Benny’s conversation chops rival his ability to crush the drums, and we couldn’t have asked for more. This is another can’t miss episode!

Transition music: Mercy Union - "Chips and Vics" from the 'The Quarry' LP.
