I had the pleasure of writing a feature for Cincinnati’s CityBeat on my experience recording a cover of Tom Petty’s “Walls” with my band Plastic Ants. The session happened to coincide with the final days of Ultrasuede, the studio space in which we’ve recorded all of our albums to date, so the story turned into a dual tribute of sorts. Hope you enjoy. And don’t miss the amazing video for the song directed by our friend Mike Sweeney.
