Joshua Roberts of Magnolia Park
On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Joshua Roberts of Magnolia Park. Since unleashing their debut album in 2019, Magnolia Park have pointed ahead, combining emo-soaked rock with ambitious world-building. But though their sound is rooted in classic pop punk, their music has taken a darker turn over the years. Lately, the band have been fixated on nü metal, embracing the heaviness to tell a bigger story with their upcoming neo-gothic concept album VAMP. In a conversation with Madden, the Magnolia Park frontman explains his love of anime, racism in rock music, and being the hero of your own story. Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts.
