Locked In The Closet: Ep 13 with John Slofkoski of Snake Father
In today's episode (recorded on 4/10/2020), Ryan calls up John Slofkoski of Snake Father. John is the front man on vocals for the band but also is running double duty during the pandemic as one of the front-line EMS essential personnel.
John is a busy man. From being an EMS tech on an ambulance as a day job, John also is the vocalist for his band Snake Father. As with everything COVID-19, John has to step up his precautions while on the job. He explains that they are treating everyone as though "they are hot, until they are not". Playing it safe on a daily basis is an understatement for his line of work. John goes into some details about what he is seeing and hearing about the virus as it continues to plague us as a whole.
John took Snake Father from Corpus Christi to Austin in 2018 and hasn't hit the brakes yet. When he got here, he didn't know anyone and had to try and see where he and his brand fit in. From its creation, it started out as a solo project where John wrote it all from his apartment. SF has gone through a couple line up changes but that hasn't stopped the passion and the drive. Now John finds himself yet again in his apartment with time on his hands.
During the down time, SF went to The Noiz Faktory Recording Studios in Georgetown, TX to take advantage of the mandatory down time. Eric Meyer is the owner and operator of The Noiz Faktory and he opened his doors to multiple bands during the quarantine so that they could get some solid content to share with their fans while they are stuck at home. John takes us back to his time there and how happy he was with the result. *** And if you think you have the chops as a guitarist and would be a good fit, SF is currently on the hunt for one.
The song featured in today's episode is Snake Fathers single " Davidian" and can be found on all major platforms
