"Pharmacists aren't here to save rock and roll. They don't have the budget, or the jackets. But they are *trying*, in a landscape where most bands are too busy refreshing their socials to finish a bridge.Rock music doesn't die - it just downsizes. And Pharmacists are out here propping it up with their own shoulders, one open wound at a time."Those are words of KWR Radion DJ Jim McCaulty, and I thought they might serve as a good jumping off point for my chat today with Will PorteousWill has been on the show before and we sat down to talk all about his band Pharmacists and the route he’s taken back into recording and performing, before we moved on to chat about his thoughts on this season’s album, Echo. WARNING : There’s a fair bit of profanity in this one as that’s just the way we tend to talk to each other, but it’s not gratuitous or aggressive so hopefully it’s OK for y’all!Pharmacists Singles : https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9JRklgBG7NxPkI4Dmoj9tv89ZrUzZplWFollow Will on Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/pharmacistsband/Don't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tompettyproject.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThreads: https://www.threads.net/@thetompettyprojectAll music, including the theme song, provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.
