In this episode, we sit down with Mark Rose, frontman of beloved Chicago rock band Spitalfield, for a deep dive into the legacy of the band, the evolution of the scene, and his continued passion for making music. Rising out of the early 2000s emo and pop-punk surge, Spitalfield became a cornerstone of the Chicago music community—earning a loyal fanbase through honest songwriting, relentless touring, and their time on Victory Records.

Mark reflects on those formative years, the tight-knit energy of the Chicago scene, and what it meant to come up through a label that helped define an era. We also talk about what drives him now—why creating new music still matters, and how staying connected to your roots doesn’t mean standing still.
