Another installment of Artist Friendly is imminent. Following conversations with Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach, Doug Robb of Hoobastank, and Petey, Brain Dead’s Kyle Ng will join Joel Madden on the latest episode of the series.
Ng is the co-founder and creative director behind Brain Dead. Founded in 2014, Brain Dead taps into varying subcultures — punk, skateboarding, streetwear — that are reflected in its vivid, one-of-a-kind pieces. The brand also sponsors the hardcore festival Sound and Fury and frequently collaborates with musicians, from veterans (Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers) to up-and-comers (Anxious, GEL).
