DBWS 2-27 Jake Whitener - Bazooka Fest We're excited to share a very special episode today as we're joined by Jake Whitener—someone who has truly lived the ultimate indie rock fan's dream. Jake is a former A&R Director at Matador Records, plays in a fantastic indie rock band, and is the founder and creator of Bazooka Fest, now in its second year. And honestly? The lineup for this year's festival ranks among the greatest we've ever seen assembled for an independent music festival. Our conversation goes everywhere. We talk about Jake's appearance in the Pavement movie, what it was like presenting Bob Pollard of Guided by Voices with a trophy during the band's 40th anniversary celebration, and we even put him on the spot to count down his five favorite Elephant 6 songs of all time.
