227. Louise Post - Veruca Salt

Louise Post is part of the outstanding Chicago band Veruca Salt who along with Guitarist Nina Gordon, Drummer Jim Shapiro and Bassist Steve Lack made a huge impact the minute they arrived on the rock scene in 1992. The original lineup released two highly popular albums("American Thighs"/"Eight Arms To Hold") and a host of EP's before Gordon left the band and was followed later by Shapiro and Lack. Post continued on using the name Veruca Salt and released two more records("Resolver"/"IV") and the original lineup reunited in 2015 with the album "Ghost Notes". This brings us to 2023 and Louise's first solo record entitled "Sleepwalker". She joins us on the show to talk about her upbringing in St. Louis, college years, and formation and early years of the band. *Due to circumstances beyond our control, the interview ends at 45 minutes.
