Your All-Access Pass to the Marching Arts.

Punk Rock Irving Lopez is back on On A Water Break. Jackie Brown and Scott Ruiz sit down with Irving for a conversation about leaving color guard, finding himself outside the activity, becoming a dad and returning to the marching arts with a new perspective.

Irving shares his 32 Count Life Story—from growing up in Los Angeles and discovering performance early to marching Diamante, Santa Clara Vanguard, Blue Devils and Fantasia, becoming a major color guard creator online and building a career in entertainment marketing. He also discusses the Patricia meme, WGI media, the pressure of being watched online, mental health and how time away helped him understand who he was beyond the activity.
