đș Introducing... The Band Dads! đ¶
Chris Flynn and Scott Lang are teaming up to bring you a podcast by confused band parents, for confused band parents! (That means ALL band parentsânot just dads!) Whether youâre drowning in fundraising forms, lost in a sea of musical jargon, or just wondering why your kid suddenly needs a $200 mouthpiece, weâve got you covered.

That "aha!" moment turned into a mission: to demystify band life for parents everywhereâstarting with YOU!
With a lighthearted mix of humor, real talk, and expert insights, The Band Dads will have you laughing, learning, and maybe even reconsidering that late-night uniform ironing session. Tune in to find out why music makes your child a better person... for LIFE! (And hey, the podcast might just make you a better parent, too!)
Hit play and join the funâyouâll never hear âband parentâ the same way again! đ§đ„
