Chicago noise rock band Masonic Wave joined me for a chat outside Estelle’s (2013 North Avenue).

Bruce Lamont (vocals), Fritz Doreza (bass), Clayton DeMuth (drums) and Scott Spidale (guitar) talked about the new self-titled album, the band’s evolution, their other bands and the release show at Live Wire (4/13/24).

Thanks to Estelle’s (2013 North Avenue/Wicker Park) for the fantastic food (Big Beefy FTW).
