In a powerful new episode of Broken Record, Chino sits down with Leah Rose for one of his most revealing interviews in years. The talk moves far beyond the usual band updates, diving into memories, creative growth, and moments of real vulnerability plus the emotional layers surrounding the making of Private Music.
The discussion moves far beyond the usual press run chatter. Chino reflects on the early days—those chaotic, beautiful times living with Chi Cheng. At one point, Chino discusses the challenges and personal clarity that came during the making of Private Music, a record shaped by change, healing, and rediscovery. He speaks openly about how getting sober affected not only his mindset but also his approach to creating. It’s a moment of vulnerability that reveals how much he’s evolved as both an artist and a person.
Talking with Leah Rose, he looks back on the early days surrounding Adrenaline—a time that was as uncertain as it was exciting. He admits how nervous he was during that first record, trying to find his footing while everything around him felt new and unpredictable.
He even touches on life offstage, sharing small personal moments that give fans a glimpse of his quiet routines when the noise fades. It’s the kind of openness that long-time listeners rarely get to hear, and it makes this interview one of the most memorable in recent years.
