<p><strong>Join Curly, Braggy, and Rossy for Episode 209 of Unfiltered and Undiscovered! This week, we dive deep with Sean Martin from The Quarantined—a punk rock, grunge, and metal band with a powerful message and a brand new album, &#39;Aversion to Normaly.&#39; Discover Sean&#39;s journey from choir and opera to military service and music school, and how these experiences shape his music and lyrics. We discuss the challenges of being an independent artist, the importance of authenticity, mental health in the music industry, and the realities of getting your message heard in today&#39;s echo chambers. Plus, get behind-the-scenes stories from recording at Nashville’s legendary Blackbird Studios, and learn about the band&#39;s influences, genre-hopping style, and their commitment to meaningful songwriting.
