On the first full episode of Build Your Own Band, I sit down to talk with Luke Bentham of The Dirty Nil.The Dirty Nil has been going strong for the better part of the last 20 years. Starting as a couple kids jamming covers in their garage, to becoming an international touring act with 5 full length albums under their belt, The Dirty Nil has encountered it all when it comes to the music industry. Through many ups and downs, successes and challenges, starts and restarts, The Dirty Nil has solidified their spot in the modern rock and roll landscape, and is doing so on their own terms. In this episode Luke and I dive into all of this.Listen to The Dirty Nil's newest single "Fail in Time" off their upcoming record "The Lash", coming out on Dine Alone Records on July 25th, 2025. This album was produced and mixed by me (Vince Soliveri), so I can guarantee you, it is an unbelievable listen, front to back!Subscribe to the show to be notified as soon as new episodes drop.
