Interview: Survay Says! [Slam Dunk 2015]

Henry Menzel, guitarist and vocalist of the six-piece ska band from New Jersey, Survay Says, spoke to us at Slam Dunk South. He was really knackered – and perhaps slightly hungover – but still so upbeat about his tour with Goldfinger, the chemistry he has with his other five
