On this episode of the Banned Biographies podcast host, Tom Austin-Morgan, chats to David Green, drummer in US pop punk band Moonraker.
Moonraker has been a unit since 2011 releasing numerous singles and EPs and three full-length albums, the most recent of which – The Forest – was released in May 2022. To celebrate the anniversary of this album, and to get us ready for new music, Moonraker has released a new video for the song 'I Really Wanted To' where the band face off against another team in a deadly game of whirleyball.
We talk about what the hell Whirley ball is as well as David's musical inspirations, what’s wrong with a certain retiring punk band, secret hotel room vandalism, why pop music is benefitting from ‘going punk’, and much more.
