The Mike Herrera Podcast

The Mike Herrera Podcast #282 Matt Collyer - Lead Vocals & Guitar for the Planet Smashers. 

 

The Planet Smashers are a Canadian ska punk band from Montreal. Since their formation in 1994, they have been a staple of the Montreal music scene. During the third wave of ska, they performed nationally and later internationally, with tours in the United States, Europe, and Japan. Founding member Matt Collyer helped establish Stomp Records in 1994, which featured many ska and ska punk bands

We had a great conversation about keeping the music fresh after 25 years as a band, their new album, "Too Much Information", his label Stomp Records and that one time (not at band camp) that Matt broke his neck and lived to write a song about it!

Enjoy.

@ChrisCheney23 on TWITTER

This was one of my favorite conversations with an amazing songwriter, performer and guitar legend! His band the Living End is one of the all time greatest to come out of Australia. 

We talk about the old memories for tours long past and we also talk about the tour we were on right then. 

 

Enjoy this one!
