Steffan and Renée chat with two of the band’s long-time collaborators: graphic artist Tony Squindo and co-founding member of Goodnight, Texas, Avi Vinocur. Plus, Kirk chimes in about his bluesy, down-and-dirty guitar solo on Goodnight, Texas’ new song, “Runaways.”
Avi fills us in on his unlikely journey from a humble studio runner to Metallica’s go-to side-man for special projects like the All Within My Hands benefit concerts, S&M2 with the San Francisco Symphony, and even an appearance on Howard Stern. Recently, the tables turned, and Avi’s band became the hosts of a special guest musician: our own Kirk Hammett.
Tony Squindo - whose art has graced many a Metallica t-shirt, poster, and even a Monopoly game - chats with Renée about the evolution of his work for the band. The man who once published a book called “Year of the Skull” talks about his fondness for revisiting his previous pieces and shares his favorite thing he’s ever created for a member of Metallica.
