August Burns Red on Ruining Christmas and Why it's "Always Been About Brandi Hancock"

Jake Luhrs and JB Brubaker of the mighty August Burns Red recently caught up with APTV to wax romantic about first brushes with romance, charmed roller rinks and piss-poor piano playing. The ABR boys also revealed the first bands they grew out of, described their first social media selfies and why their music has the potential to completely ruin Christmas. Luhrs also reminisced the nefarious entrepreneurial ventures of his youth and his tenure as an adolescent jewelry dealer in lieu of a proper education in this APTV exclusive.
