Down & Dirty - Ian Hates Music #225

February 13, 2026

Every member of Down & Dirty joins Ian in a very fun and very informative episode of Ian Hates Conversations: Music Edition!

Zeke, Jack, Connor, Christian, and Matt join Ian from all over the states to talk about everything Down & Dirty! When I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING!

Down & Dirty are not a band you would necessarily call “lucky” in the music business, but they’re still here fighting to create their debut album even after going through what they went through. I for one can’t wait to hear it! Make sure to check out the link to the Indiegogo below.

Think you know the whole story behind the band?

Think just because you know this is the band that Denis Stoff created after Make Me Famous means you know it all?

It’s cliche but think again!

Here’s Down & Dirty’s story directly from the people involved.

You’re in for a fun one!
