Show Notes
Ron Gallo is a Philadelphia based singer-songwriter and creator of the social media project 7AM Songs of Resistance for The Internet. His newest album checkmate is due out October 17th via Kill Rock Stars. In this episode Ron tells us how growing up in the diverse South Jersey/Philadelphia DIY scene shaped his formative years, why he remains dedicated to music, and why words are the focus of his creativity. We learn why making checkmate was a vastly different experience from his previous records, what drove him to finally write about love and how the last song he wrote for the album became the lead single and face for the release. Joe and Ron discuss the relationship of bravery and speaking truth to power, why we need to fight for a culture of truth and Ron’s inspiration for 7AM Songs of Resistance for The Internet. Ron tells us how he’s re-evaluating his relationship to touring and we hear sample of a couple new songs. Ron Gallo
