This week, I’m joined by Chris Ballew of The Presidents of The United States of America as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band’s self-titled debut—an album that helped define what ‘90s alternative rock felt like. Chris and I get into everything: his run performing with Beck’s live band, the origins (and wonderfully weird design) of the basitar and guitbass, and how the Presidents carved out their own lane as “the alternative to the alternative.”
