GRRL022: New York vs. LA, the hustle, and touring with Deftones and Refused featuring Sarah Quintero of Spotlights - a podcast by June Owatari

Happy new year, folks, and welcome to episode #22 of Grrl on Grrl!

In this episode, you'll hear Sarah Quintero of Spotlights, a sludgegaze band from New York.
She and Mario, who you heard mentioned in a cut segment I included in one of the previous Interlude episode, met in San Diego, before moving to Brooklyn where they are now based. In summer of 2016, they toured with Refused and Deftones! You'll hear more about that in the interview. We also talk about their goals with growing the band and the supportive music scene in New York.

The first episode of 2017 runs a bit longer at 53 minutes, but it's totally worth it because you'll get to hear not only Spotlights, but San Diego's Sleeping People and Seattle-based band He Whose Ox Is Gored. Enjoy!
