Domenic "Nicky" Palermo (NOTHING) - "I got my high school diploma in prison"
101 Part Time Jobs with Giles BidderShow Notes
Nothing was Nicky's "f*ck off project" while he was enjoying his new freedom working in Philadelphia bars - until it wasn't. He tells us about how he's nearly bitten off more than he can chew with the band and his festival Slide Away, featuring the return of the legendary Hum. Nothing's new album 'a short history of decay' is out now on Run For Cover - and there are tickets left for Chicago and Los Angeles' Slide Away fest: https://www.slideaway.co/
