An Interview With Musician David Bazan


Earlier this year I did an interview with former Pedro The Lion frontman David Bazan. I'm about the same age as Bazan, we both have young children, both make a living in the creative arts and we're both preacher's kids who are no longer Christian, so I thought it would be interesting to interview him. I talked to him on the phone and at a concert in Milwaukee, and turned the interview into a short comic that's printed in the new issue of Filter Magazine's Good Music Guide, available at Landmark Theaters, Diesel and Urban Outfitters. Or, you could just download the PDF here. In a way, it was really just a selfish way for me to think about how I want to write my next autobiographical book about religion and fatherhood...

  1. Religion is a rich subject for comics.

  2. Thanks for including the PDF. I don't have any of those stores near me. The sample panel looks amazing.

  4. Fantastic interview. I drew him at a house show a couple years ago (Rocky Votolato was in the audience). He was going to play a show at our house but it was canceled. We're hoping to reschedule when he's back playing shows in Seattle again.

    Also sounds like it involves Hailey Mills and Disney.
