When Marc first saw Hutch Harris perform live with his band The Thermals, he was won over immediately and invented a whole mythology around who Hutch Harris must be.

On a related note, Marc's friend Dan Pashman stops by to talk about the expectations we have when we see our favorite artists play live. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
