Artist Friendly with Joel Madden

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Damiano David of Måneskin. Måneskin — the ’70s-inspired Eurovision winners who became viral stars — have been championed by young rock fans. Over the past few months, though, their frontman David has been branching out by sharing songs from his first solo album (including the Labrinth-produced “Silverlines” and “Born With a Broken Heart”), which is set to arrive next year. In a conversation with Madden, the Måneskin singer reveals the importance of doing what makes you happy, missing family and friends on the road, and his upcoming solo project.

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Tim Kasher of Cursive. Kasher has fronted Cursive since the mid-’90s, leading the band through emo, post-hardcore, and dissonant experimentation. Having just released their 10th studio album, Devourer, which represents “personal imperialism and the imperialism of relationships,” the band will support their Omaha peers Bright Eyes on tour in April. In a conversation with Madden, the Nebraska-born indie rocker delves into his love of directing, the steady growth of the band’s near 30-year career, and Devourer.

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Jessi Cruickshank. A self-described “comedian with too many kids,” Cruickshank has been involved in the entertainment circuit for decades. Her origins in the scene trail back to her high school improv group, where she starred alongside Seth Rogen and Nathan Fielder before landing jobs at CTV, MTV, and The CW, weaving in comedy while interviewing celebrities. In a conversation with Madden, Cruickshank dives into her love for boy bands, motherhood, her surprising answer to how she balances it all, and her first-ever comedy special “Minivan Money,” which is now streaming on Veeps.
