Last month we had a chance to catch up with Grant Garvin, the creator the NEON RetroFest. We talked for over an hour about the retro culture, arcades, synthwave, and his newest project NEON FM. 

We also discussed the future of synthwave and Grant asks the most important question of all...

Will there be a NEON 2?

I was a new wave / post punk singer in the 1980s. I liked girls, whiskey, and drugs too much. I was a time traveler. Once while going through this era, barely holding myself together from the last overdose, I busted my flux capacitor. My timeship could make one last emergency jump, and I crashed to the present. I don't remember too much from my past life except my name. Now I make music like I did back in the '80s.
