This episode features Crosswinds from Baltimore Maryland. They are Pop-Punk/Post-Hardcore/Punk band. All 4 members were able to get together for a FaceTime interview a couple weeks back and overall it was a fun interview. You can find all their music online. @CrosswindsMD is their handle. Drew also has a segment on the To All The Crowded Rooms Podcast. Which I highly recommend.

So we talked about what he's been up to and what his plans are for the future. Below is his company's website.
