Welcome to episode number 32 and a brand new series of Kerrang! In Conversation.


This week, Kerrang! Editor Luke Morton is joined by Mayday Parade vocalist Derek Sanders. Calling in from Florida at the start of their Three Cheers For 20 Years tour, the frontman reflects on two decades on the frontlines of emo and pop-punk, and why the scene is coming back stronger than ever before.


We also get into Mayday Parade’s new EP trilogy, why they’ve gone independent, and the importance of not getting comfortable as an artist.
