Today on The Heavy Desert Podcast I welcome Joe Narducci guitarist, vocalist and founding member of the Toronto based band Verona Florrist to the show. These guys just released their self titled, debut album on October 1st, and it is amazing! Joe talks about starting this new band after being with another band for several years, about the creative process, and he has a pretty funny story about coming across the Canadian/American border in which he was told to BRING some “substances” with him next time. At only 27 years old, Joe brings a much welcomed youthfulness to the scene! We covered so much and I had a great time chatting with him and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. Make sure to tune in & subscribe!
