In this week's episode I sit down to chat with all round legend Tai Tate! Tai is the guitarist and vocalist in Master Leonard, a heavy metal 3 piece powerhouse out of Sydney, he's also the co-owner, director and wine buyer for Built to Spill Wine, a company all about bringing natural wines to the people, whilst pairing it with some f*cking good music. We talk all things Master Leonard, how they formed, upcoming album and planned shows, some influences and bands Tai loves, we both love metal so this was great to riff on. We talk all things Built to Spill Wine, why the company started, it's visions for pairing natural wines with awesome music, either just drinking and listening or literally bands collaborating to bring our their own natural wines, we go deep on this. Beyond this we talk about Tai's knack for producing piss funny instagram reels, not taking himself too seriously and a personal philosophy to 'be kind to all people, all the time whether they deserve it or not.' All this and more - Lend Us Your Ears...Show some love below by giving Tai a follow, buy some delicious wine or listen to some delicious heavy metal.Built To Spill - https://builttospill.wine/ Master Leonard - https://masterleonard.bandcamp.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/taionfire/?hl=enIf you like what you've heard, please pay it forward by sharing the show, subscribe and leaving a review on Apple Podcasts.
