TOUCHDOWNS ALL DAY w/ JON BARBER & MAX DAWSON.

E061 - Everybody Plays a Role w/Nik Francis - The Disco Biscuits are more than just the four guys on stage. This episode represents the first of what will hopefully become an ongoing series of interviews showcasing the contributions of the men and women who work tirelessly behind the scenes to create the live Disco Biscuits experience. Joining us this week is Nik Francis, the band's guitar tech. There's no one better qualified to analyze Barber's tone than Nik, and we were fortunate enough to have him give us a full, in-depth run down of the guitars, amps, pedals, and techniques that he and Barber use to create the band's signature guitar sound. This one is for the gearheads out there, but also for anyone else who's ever wondered how Barber does what only Barber can do. Stay tuned until the end of the episode for an acoustic cover of "Fire Will Exchange" by Biscuits fan Lily Enchin.
