Before the show at Neumos last night, the Lads dropped by the KEXP studio for an session with John Richards. You can catch a live version of “Augustine” on the KEXP website. And while you’re there, be sure to join in on KEXP’s summer membership drive. KEXP has been great friend to Pela and to all alternate bands. Be sure to support them with a contribution.
