Hi, everyone. This is your host, Sarah Harrelson, of Taking a Walk Nashville. I hope everyone has been enjoying their new year, and I want to give a quick shout-out to Sennheiser today. On this episode, I'm using their Podcast Profile mic, and I have been loving it. But today here with me on Taking a Walk Nashville is Sean Martin, the lead singer of the grunge punk metal band The Quarantined, and this band's sound grew through college and internet radio play in the early 2010s. And all of the members of this band are former students of the Musicians Institute in Hollywood, California. They recently released their new album, Aversion to Normalcy, in November, with the record being a cathartic confrontation with trauma and resilience. This band has currently amassed over 10 million views across TikTok, with one viral clip earning over one million views.
