Kris Hansen (Viking Jesus, Man & Wife, Shiza Fest, sound person)

For this episode I was able to catch up with Kris Hansen where we talk about his dedication to songwriting and recording. Plus, we discuss many of the people he's played with over the years, what Dropout Night was all about, how he got into doing sound and the venues he's worked at over the years, as well as the story of how he started using the band name Viking Jesus!

We also preview each band that's playing Shiza Fest this coming weekend at Dusk on Saturday August 26th and The Parlour on Sunday August 27th. So check that out and come celebrate the life of Nick Iddon with us all
