Welcome to EKA151! Today we are joined by Mike Jansen and Mark O'Connell of the band Me.! You may recognize Mark from the 20+ years spent behind the kit with Taking Back Sunday, but Mike is new to a lot of us so we had him tell us his story as well as how he went from submitting music to singing in Me.. We touch on Mark and Eddie Reyes reconnecting and rediscovering the simple joy of playing music with your friend and setting aside the bs, Mark's recovery, and renewed excitement for music. These fellas are very excited, and it's very invigorating. The debut album from Me., All Good Things comes out on July 24th but their first single "Special" is out now!
