In this episode of Undefined, Bella is joined by her friend JD from the Michigan-based indie rock band King Ink. They talk about the band’s origins, how JD nearly quit music, and how he helped build a tight-knit community within the local music scene, among other topics. JD is also the co-host of a music podcast with his friend Nick, where they break down the discographies of artists like Barenaked Ladies, Coldplay, and Radical Face. Bella was first introduced to JD through his Barenaked Ladies podcast, and the second half of the conversation is dedicated to nerding out over music, diving into music criticism, and unpacking how subjective music can be.
