Episode 7: Adam Marshall and Eric Kreidler, Videos for The Bazillions

Adam Marshall is the driving musical force behind The Bazillions, the Twin Cities power-pop kindie band.  Eric Kreidler is the driving visual force behind the videos for the Bazillions, videos which have attracted more than a half-million views on YouTube.

The two of them joined me to talk about their new Kickstarter project, the origins of the band, where they drew (pun mostly unintended) inspiration for their videos, and a little bit about preparing a Kickstarter project.
