This article has been imported from chorus.fm for discussion. All of the forum rules still apply. Forbes (sorry for having to link to this user hostile website) sat down with Travis Barker, John Feldmann, and Jason Butler to talk about The Fever 333 and their upcoming music, label, and more: This is the first and only interview that Barker, Feldmann and The Fever 333 have done collectively. With their debut EP being released this Friday, here, in their words, Barker, Feldmann and the trio reveal all. And: I stayed close to Jason, then when Jason was working at Shinola in Venice selling watches he came to the house and had a come to Jesus talk with me. “What do I do?” So I kind of filed it away in the back of my mind. Three months later Travis and I signed a couple of pop/punk bands and we started developing stuff together. It came to the forefront, Jason Aalon is the greatest frontman probably still relevant, but he is working at a watch store. There’s lots of new information about this project and how it came together in here. Expand - View Original
So cool seeing Jason's success. Used to BMX and skate with him back in the day in Westchester. Played a couple shows with LetLive before they blew up.
If you're interested in The Fever 333 you should check out Aric Importa's discussion with Ray Harkins (Taken) on the 100 Words or Less podcast that came out a few weeks ago. He talks about growing up with Jayson and touring with Letlive while in Night Verses. It'll be an hour of your time well spent.
I was confused seeing these guys getting so much attention so quickly, then I started seeing Travis Barker and John Feldmann on instagram posts. Can't begrudge them such a crazy opportunity, though. Couldn't happen to better dudes.
This is a cool little interview. I'd love to know why the rest of letlive turned down that opportunity from Feldy back in the day.
Walking in My Shoes sounds like what a lot of people wanted out of Letlive’s new album. I love it. And I loved Letlive’s last album as well.
I guess they figured letlive would fall victim to the "young band on major label gets put on the shelf" ordeal.
Would LOVE to hear that Letlive song they did with Feldmann. RIP. I’m excited for their future, but I personally feel without the aid of Barker and Feldmann this would not be reaching the audience it’s getting. Heard “Walking In My Shoes” on Sirius the other day and so far that’s been the most promising thing released from them.
The way this is being packaged really reminds me of the way AVA was put together/announced. Not exactly the same just getting similar vibes. Feels a bit "manufactured" to me.. Will listen none the less.
