# Band in a Bubble

7 Apr 2016

In 2007 the band [Cartel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartel_(band)) thought they were getting the break of their career when they signed a deal with MTV for a promising new reality show, “Band in a Bubble” which would film them 24 hours a day while they recorded their sophomore album… in a bubble. Chris, who was their manager at the time, negotiated the deal; James and his former firm designed the [album packaging](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartel_(Cartel_album)#/media/File:CartelCartel.png). All of us grew up together. We sit down with drummer Kevin Sanders to discuss what it’s like to have a brush with fame and everything that comes with it.

You can watch all four episodes of “Band in a Bubble” on [MTV.com](http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/151371/band-in-a-bubble-episode-1.jhtml).
