I had a lot of fun talking with Duane Warr of the heavy metal project, Dwarr. Duane is warrior in the army of God and his love for serving Christ is evident through his retelling of a dozen great stories from his degen days, missionary trips, making of his albums and Drag City reissues, tour with Black Bananas, and his plans for a comeback. Hope you enjoy our conversation.

As always, this is a casual conversation in which we'll most likely misstate things or get some things wrong. Whenever anyone talks about GOD, always be like the Bereans and DYOR.
