We met with Zac and Elvis of the band FIDLAR before their show at the Commodore this weekend. Filmed in the Bottleneck bar downstairs from the venue, the two FIDLAR members discussed some of their favorite and most influential albums from their collections. Starting with Neil Young, through Redd Cross and Rage Against the Machine and returning to 70’s era Jackson Brown, the two were entertaining and happily spoke at length about their favorite music. FIDLAR’S latest release TOO is now out on Mom +Pop/Dine Alone Records.
