Welcome back to The Struts Life!

This week, we are saying "Hola!" as Gethin returns from a whirlwind weekend at the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City. It’s been nine years since The Struts played there, and the trip was nothing short of chaotic.

Join Gethin and Leah as they dive into the reality of festival logistics, from navigating local protests and 5 AM call times to the panic of a mid-soundcheck power outage. Gethin shares the story of a hilariously loud lunch at a local restaurant, the "champagne problems" of travel, and the challenge of performing on a battered rental drum kit that sounded more like kitchenware than an instrument.

Find out how the band handled a frantic schedule with a skeleton crew, why a Radio Disney interview left Gethin confused, and get the secret ingredient to his infamous "Crack and Cheese" Thanksgiving recipe as he heads to New Orleans. Plus, get a quick update on Luke Spiller’s solo tour and the details on the band's upcoming makeup show in Seattle. You won't want to miss this one!
