Ep: 39 Speak Up with Linh Le
Pic by Jason Cook - Bad/Cop Bad Cop’s forthcoming album—featuring bassist/vocalist Linh Le, drummer Myra Gallarza and guitarist/vocalists Stacey Dee and Jennie Cotterill—might offer more introspection, but their sound has not lost an ounce of urgency. Hear two of the So Cal band’s new singles during my chat with bassist Linh Le!
America's broken promise to immigrants and refugees, trading aggression for compassion, and whether or not it's OK to eat eggs in the tour van...Yes, it's all on the table, baby! That's because I'm chatting with outspoken bassist/vocalist Linh Le of the So Cal band Bad Cop/Bad Cop!
The band's new full length album The Ride (out June 19 on Fat Wreck Chords)trades an angry roar for a more sweet and sour mix of emotions, even delving into the territory of self-love (don't worry, they can still do it with a guttural snarl when they want to).
Today we talk a bit about Lin’s gut-punch of a tune “Pursuit of Liberty,” the band’s second single. The song provides a searing anthem for the first-generation Vietnamese-American immigrant's fierce convictions.
You'll also hear "Simple Girl," the first single from the new album.
