We were absolutely chuffed to score time with Winston McCall of Parkway Drive backstage at Good Things Festival 2019 to discuss their first-ever headline slot on a large scale music festival like GTF. Something that until this year, was never an option for an Australian band of their calibre. It's safe to say they nailed their slot and have now set the benchmark for future years.

Interviewer Paul 'Browny' Brown also brought up the subject of the ARIAs disrespecting heavy music, something which Winston chimed in with an idea he'd like to see implemented in future. The pair also discussed a Parkway Drive statue in Byron Bay, the future of the band and McCall's influence on the world, including something from Browny's own personal life...

Give it a listen and get behind one of our biggest heavy metal exports...
