We talk to Tony Lovato - Singer Songwriter and Frontman for Pop Punk band MEST. Tony shares the back story to the band's brand new single 'When We Were Young' and how it contrasts to the band's early reflective material. We also hear about growing up in Blue Island, Illinois and the early influence of MTV and Heavy Metal before Punk Rock came calling and put him on a lifelong journey from Warped Tours to zero sunlight travels through the UK.
