Former Member Reveal “Manageable Scratches” Album & “2nd Take” Video

Punk rock stalwart Jason Shevchuk (Kid Dynamite, None More Black, LaGrecia) and renowned producer and drummer Will Yip have unveiled another installment of their groovy and riffy outfit, Former Member. Their brand new collection of melancholy melodic rock ‘n’ roll songs, appropriately titled Manageable Scratches, is now available and the duo have also unveiled the music video for the track 2nd Take.

“Recording the vocals for this record took months because I had to wait for the house to be empty so I could shout without terrifying my 1-year-old son, which, during a pandemic, was a great challenge for me mentally,” explains Shevchuk. “In certain ways, this is the least amount of production that I’ve done on a record in a long time,” asserts Yip. “Jason sent me demos, I played drums to them, we reproduced the tracks, and he sang on it at home. I’ve always trusted his taste on songs and I couldn’t be more proud of the record.”
