176. The Heavy Rotation ft. Grant Frahm and Kalium Ewing

About this episode

Victor Chan converses with Grant Frahm and Kalium Ewing about their album listening parties and the community they've built around music.

Our next guests are two college friends that host album listening parties around the city. What started as a way to stay in touch with their group of friends has expanded into a third space for like-minded individuals. Whether it’s your hundredth or first time listening to an album, all are welcome. Please enjoy my conversation with Grant and Kalium of The Heavy Rotation. https://www.instagram.com/the.heavy.rotation
