Season 5, Episode 70,   Apr 11, 2023, 06:57 PM

How does one go about transitioning from the Chicago punk scene to making a living as an artist in LA? We break down Darren's journey through the music and art community, including The Scissors, TLB (with Tom Higgenson of Plain White Ts), and his solo project.

Today’s friend of the podcast is a true renaissance man: a master of the mic, lens, and easel. He is a full-time working artist, photographer and designer - who has worked with the likes of Plain White Ts, Fairview, Bayside, and Chad Tepper. He is currently exhibiting a couple large scale art pieces at the Encino Terrace Gallery in Encino, California through June 17th, 2023. 

He is also one of the creative masterminds behind three long-standing musical projects as well: The Scissors, TLB, and his solo project. 

Please say hello to a lover of the zoos, booze, cemeteries, and the Chicago Cubs - the frontman of TLB - Darren Vorel.
