When Hot Water Music disbanded a few years ago, many fans, including myself, were left wondering, “Will rock and roll ever be its honest, rebellious self again?” Well, not only has HWM started playing together again, but its individual members are spreading their sincere, Gainesville love under different monikers. Last winter, the good word was spread further with Chris Wollard and the Ship Thieves – 10 smoky snapshots of Chris’ optimistic, but unsettled world. With a bunch of dates being announced for the fall and winter, including some international shows and an appearance at Gainesville’s Fest 8 in late October, Chris Wollard and the Ship Thieves are ready to spread their nautical tales out to the rest of the world.

Chris sat down with Gen Handley for a frank conversation about tour withdrawal, the serious joys and perils of writing music and why he’s just a ship thief at heart.
