Artist Interviews Water Liars
Before their show at Schubas, Water Liars sat down with Katie Owens to discuss the erroneous genre label of “southern rock," Barry Hannah’s influence on the band, and how honesty plays into Water Liar’s live shows. Water Liars released their self-titled full length on Fat Possum in February. They'll be back in Chicagoland on May 14 to play at Rozz Tox in Rock Island.
