Hey everybody.

Today's guest is Blagdalia, lead vocalists for the San Francisco, California punk rock band, The Dwarves.

Together we break down the writing, recording, and inspiration behind the Dwarves classic. Everybody's Girl, taken from their 1997 album, The Dwarves are Young and Good Looking.

Blag mentioned this record was a turning point for the dwarves.

After sub-pop records dropped the band in 1993, they all did some soul searching.

It was around this time that Blag

felt he wanted to be more song-oriented and pay a little more attention to the writing

and production, which led to a series of amazing events, one of which was producer Eric

Valentine, who at this point wasn't a household name yet. Eric has since gone on to produce

hit records for everyone from Smashmouth, All-American Rejects, Third Eye Blind, and Good Charlotte. Oh,

and the influences that Blag throws out are impressive. You would never think

this wild punk rocker would have such an eclectic yet awesome taste in music. So

for all this and a surprise guest vocalist

on the harmonies of everybody's girl, don't touch that dial.
