Since their inception in 2001, the Used — vocalist Bert McCracken, bassist Jeph Howard, drummer Dan Whitesides, and guitarist Joey Bradford — have amassed a passionate following thanks to their genre-bending rock music. We caught up with Used frontman McCracken at the first Warped Tour date of the summer in Pomona, Calif., on June 21. Our host, Ryan J. Downey, got all the details on the making of the Used's latest LP, 2017's The Canyon and working with producer Ross Robinson, how MusiCares helped McCraken in recovery, and why Warped Tour is so important.
