Dan Didier (The Promise Ring, Maritime, Vermont)

This week on The Rumors Are True, we're joined by Dan Didier, drummer for The Promise Ring, Maritime, Vermont, and more. Dan has been an integral part of the independent music scene for decades, helping shape the sound of one of the most influential emo and indie rock bands of the late '90s before continuing his musical journey with Maritime and other projects.

In this conversation, Dan reflects on the early days of The Promise Ring, the band's lasting legacy, life on the road, songwriting, recording, and the evolution into Maritime following The Promise Ring's breakup. We also dive into his work with Vermont, discuss the Milwaukee music scene, and explore how his perspective on music and creativity has changed over the years.
