Full Circle Moments on the Creative Journey (ft. Tye Vallone)

The last time Tye Vallone (of The Groove Merchants and T & Emsee) joined The Quinn Spinn, we were based in Bethlehem, PA. Underground Music Collective was still Lehigh Valley Underground. Moravian University — where we recorded in an open classroom — was still Moravian College.

A lot has changed, but we’re coming full circle on Friday, June 21 at SteelStacks in Bethlehem for Sounds of the Underground. So, we decided to chat about it!
