Sara Lund is a drummer, drum teacher and the innovative percussive force behind the band Unwound. After a 20+ year break, Unwound is back and already have a string of sold out shows starting in early 2023. In this episode Sara shares the complicated and tragic story of the band falling apart and the difficult decision to start up again without founding member and friend Vern Rumsey. She also explains that the reunion is a celebration of Vern and his contribution to the music and why Jarred Warren is helping them get back on their rock n roll feet again. Joe and Sara discuss how she went from touring musician to drum instructor, her teaching technique and their views on improvisation. Joe shares a couple stories from his days as Unwound's "Brodie" and we hear a couple tunes.
