EP52: Iris Blue "We Love You, Will"

About this episode

Iris Blue discusses their experiences as indie rockers, including personal stories and insights from their tour life.

Straight outta the Chicago burbs we’ve got Iris Blue. We caught these indie rockers mid-tour and we talk about the lead singer’s night terrors, early musical influences, the sonic evolution of the band, how heartbreak led to the best roomie situation ever, and a lot about tour life featuring questionable green rooms and favorite road snacks (back by popular demand). Remember to hang on at the end to catch a snip of their song “Unfamiliar To Me” then stay tuned for the full extended version out next week on Thursday, April 30th. In The Round is produced and recorded at Trilix Studio in Des Moines, Iowa. © 2026, Trilix Studio intheroundpodcast.com instagram.com/intheroundpodcastofficial youtube.com/@InTheRoundPodcast trilixstudio.com
