State Champs of the Fan Experience with Tyler Szalkowski
This week we are sitting down with Tyler Szalkowski of State Champs! We dive into what his musical influences growing up were and how pivotal his Mom was in developing his taste. Tyler talks about the founding of State Champs and what his journey was with pursuing making music and being in bands before State Champs was created. We also ask him about their recent self titled album and what releasing that means to him and the band. Lor and Tyler get into a fiery debate about what makes an “album”, and he expands on their mindset while writing this recent album. Tyler talks about fan appreciation and keeping the fans involved, (including making a cake for a fan who has seen well over 100+ shows), and how much he appreciates interacting with their fans. Listen and join in on our conversation with Tyler of State Champs on this episode of the Beyond the Barricade Podcast!

    Thanks a lot for this one guys!!! Grayscale is so underrated, even if they switched the sound in Umbra I still love it. They have almost half of the songs off of the album and need to wait January for actual release. I’m just so happy I discovered them.
