I started 89 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 3: blaming it on the raccoons outside. I was like, oh, 90 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 3: it must be a raccoon that is wiggling a nail 91 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 3: loose that opened the cabinet. I was trying to be 92 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 3: very logical about the whole thing. 93 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: And then an invisible raccoon whispered in your band made's ear. 94 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: He ran out of the house, and you were like, 95 00:04:59,560 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: time to go. 96 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. 97 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 3: My bandmate, Zach, we were in this little rehearsal room 98 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: I had in there and we were going over the song. 99 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 2: He just stops playing and I was like, why'd you stop? 100 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: We were doing good. 101 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: He's like white like and he was like, something just 102 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 3: whispering in my ear. I'm out of here, and. 103 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 2: I was like me too, I'm leaving too. 104 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: But you made beautiful music there, yes, And then Sound 105 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: in Color. You were staying up all night and there 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: was a bat in the studio. Yeah, okay, and then Jamie, 107 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: you were in a greenhouse during a heat wave with 108 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: no Ac. 109 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred four degrees. 110 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: And then the last album was very peaceful. So what 111 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: does that mean? 112 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 2: I don't know progress. I'm gonna try a pattern of peace. Okay, 113 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 2: see what happens. 114 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: I think we all should Yeah, starting next Tuesday. Okay. 115 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: You had incredible success with Alabama Shakes, but you decided 116 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: to go solo. And your first solo album, Jamie, was 117 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: incredibly personal. You named it after and debtie it to 118 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: your sister, who died at age thirteen. There are songs 119 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: about her. There are songs about growing up poor on 120 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: a junk yard, your home was hit by lightning in 121 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: the middle of the junk yard, about your parents in 122 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: a racial marriage and the judgment that they got, your 123 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: struggles with religion, Like, there was so much personal stuff 124 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: in there. Why did you want to make an album 125 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: that was so specific? 126 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 3: I feel like, you know, I grew up in a 127 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 3: small town. I felt like I was seen, but not 128 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: in a positive way. I didn't have like a lot 129 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 3: of positive encouragement to be who I was. You know, 130 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: I feel like it took me a long time to 131 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 3: be like no, I have a story, of an interesting story, 132 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 3: of a good story to tell. 133 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 2: I think it took me. 134 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 3: A long time to be proud of who I was, 135 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: well proud enough to share it with the world, you know, 136 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 3: because that's very vulnerable. But that was an inspiration behind it, 137 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 3: just using my voice and authentic, just telling people who 138 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 3: I am. And I think that's like a It's like 139 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: a trail that I'd like to keep blazing. 140 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: Yeah you're Yeah, thank you. And we often find that 141 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: the more specific we are, the more relatable it is, 142 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: which feels counterintuitive, but in fact, people need to hear 143 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: our very specific, very personal stories to feel less alone, 144 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: which is the most powerful way to speak to the 145 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: larger masses. Your high school friend and bandmate, Zach Cockrell, 146 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: actually played on both of your solo albums, So why 147 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: couldn't you make them with the band? Did it feel 148 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: like those albums only could have been solo albums? 149 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I just needed time to do everything 150 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 3: in my own way because I had never really done that. 151 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 3: I'd always had kind of like a delegation of the 152 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 3: guys like what do you think about this? 153 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: What do you think about that? 154 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: And not wanting to sing anything that gets under anybody's 155 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 3: skin too much, you know. I was kind of It's 156 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: not like anybody made me do that. That's just what 157 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 3: the position at the I put myself in. And then 158 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: I thought it was very freeing to walk away. Instead 159 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: of it being like such a negative thing. It was like, Okay, 160 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 3: now I'm on my own I can make my own 161 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: mistakes or I can have my own victories. If the 162 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 3: ship sells great. If the ship sinks, that's my fault. 163 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 3: And taking this absolute authority over the whole project. I 164 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 3: had never done that before. I'd never been able to 165 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 3: just touch every single thing just how I wanted it to, 166 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: you know, And I think life is short. Why not 167 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: try it? 168 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? We love that, right. I think also, you're in 169 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: such a different position after those Alabama Shakes albums than 170 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: when you started. You told Terry Gross on Fresh Air 171 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: about leaving the band and writing about your sister. You 172 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: said quote, I think there was a lot of healing 173 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: that happened after I took my time away from the Shakes, 174 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: because I finally got to slow down and look at 175 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: how much life had changed, and the change was remarkable. 176 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: I needed to put my feet back on the ground 177 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 1: and figure out who I am now and what matters 178 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: to me. I know my sister would be so proud. 179 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: I got out of the junkyard, I got out of Athens, Alabama, 180 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: and I could see the world, hear different languages, see 181 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: different cultures, experience the sun in different places of the world, 182 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: and see the ocean. And you said you owed so 183 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: much of that to your sister because she brought music 184 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: to your life. That is remarkable to do in the 185 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: midst of great success, to say, oh, I want to 186 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: take a moment and actually just think about what things 187 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: mean to me and how different I am now, instead 188 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: of just let me ride this way for as long 189 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: as people will let me. How do you decide to 190 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: do that happiness? 191 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 3: You know, you can have a lot going on it. 192 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 3: It all looks right, like, everything looks great. You have 193 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 3: this great opportunity. Everybody around you saying yeah, just keep going. 194 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 3: But I wasn't very happy, which was confusing. Like you said, 195 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 3: I came from a place where the fact that I 196 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 3: started making music and the world heard it was just unfathomable. 197 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 2: I never could have imagined that what happened for me. 198 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: So then to be, like you said, at a height 199 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 3: of success, like that and just feel overcome with it. 200 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 3: Just felt like a lot of pressure in a way 201 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 3: to not mess it up, and. 202 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: So I just ran away. 203 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 3: I didn't run away, I just kind of started over 204 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 3: again in a way, and I was like, if I'm 205 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 3: going to do this, I really really want to do 206 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 3: this my way. I want to tell my story. I 207 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 3: want to be who I authentically am, you know. And 208 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 3: like the guys in my band, I love them so much. 209 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 3: They're so supportive of that, and they heard me out. 210 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: And it's a really difficult decision to make, but I 211 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: knew it was the right one, even if it was 212 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 3: really scary. 213 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, your sister died from retino blastoma, which is a 214 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: condition that you also suffered from. You survived, you have 215 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: partial blindness in one eye as a result. How did 216 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: that experience change you? And did you have any survivor's 217 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: guilt recognizing that you both suffered it, but you were 218 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: the one that made it. 219 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, when I was younger, I did. 220 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 3: When I was younger, I definitely had survivor's guilt because 221 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 3: if you all could have met my sister, absolute genius, 222 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 3: you know, like she was the clean one in the house, 223 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 3: reading books and her sheets, were nice, and her bed 224 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 3: was made, and her room was always vacuumed and organized. 225 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 3: She had a little cassette tape organization system, and she 226 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 3: had all kinds of glowing the dark purses and stuff, 227 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 3: and I don't have any of that stuff going on. 228 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: I had lego blocks in my floor at all times. 229 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: You know, we were very different.

And I idolized her so like losing her 239 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 3: and me going on. You know, the way I saw 240 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 3: myself at the time was like the less able one. 241 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: And I struggled with that for like many many years, 242 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 3: struggled with a lot of anger because take it like 243 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 3: a a. 244 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: Disease like cancer, taking somebody so young. 245 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 3: I thought that was very unforgivable of God, and I 246 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 3: couldn't really wrap my head around it. So for a 247 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 3: long time, I was just kind of like I felt 248 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 3: like I was in the desert trying to figure life out. 249 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 3: But as I got older, I realized, like, just because 250 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 3: someone's not here we can't see them, that doesn't mean 251 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: they're not still guiding you.

Said it made you angry, and you 257 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: said when you used to sing, your early performances were 258 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: basically an opportunity to belt out anger in public. You 259 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: were angry for yourself from growing up on the junk yard. 260 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: You were angry about people who told you you didn't 261 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: look like a lead singer.

You did such justice to it, 320 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: and an interview you said that she reminded you that 321 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: your work shouldn't have any confines and that your music 322 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: should always be an exploration.

You know, I just don't want to 340 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 3: beg anybody to be something I probably don't even want. 341 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, because. 342 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: You know, you're worth. So it's like, if you don't 343 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: want me for it, then that's on you, not me. 344 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. To me, it's like, I guess that's my sign 345 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 2: to create my own label and do my own thing. 346 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I can relate in ways I won't say 347 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: out loud here. You have described your on stage style 348 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: as inspired by jazz musicians son raw great, perfect, I've 349 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: seen it. It's beautiful, and your everyday style as Australian 350 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: Zoo tour guide. So I think I know the answer 351 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: based on the last question. But as a labeler manager 352 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: ever tried to dictate your on stage or or off 353 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: stage brand and persona? 354 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean probably for the better. Honestly, It's true. 355 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 3: I love looking like a Zoo guide. It's like it's 356 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 3: like it's just that's my dream job. Like yeah, like 357 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 3: Steve Irwin and yeah Autumn, Like that's I want to 358 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 3: be with them. 359 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: Okay, I love it. 360 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: I love it. 361 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: Your voice is truly another of the instruments you play. 362 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: It is incredibly versatile. You can belt, you can have 363 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: a deep alto, you can sing in falsetto, you can 364 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: sing quiet and introspective. Do you know a certainty when 365 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: you're writing a song, which of your voices you will 366 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: bring to each part? Or do you play around and 367 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: see how the story changes when you change the voice 368 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: you bring. 369 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it depends. 370 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 3: It depends on if I create the music first, or 371 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 3: if I already have lyrics. Like some sometimes lyrics just 372 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: show up, especially like in opportune times, like a time 373 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 3: where I can't possibly get to a pen and I'm 374 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 3: like in a bathroom at a bar, and I got 375 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: my little voice memo up and I'm like, okay, So 376 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: like the drums be like this, and then the bass 377 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 3: is gonna be like this. 378 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 2: Boom boom boom, boom boom, and then the. 379 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: Guitar is like the back of the bar is like 380 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: don't stop, shut up. 381 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 2: And then I'm like, tomorrow, that's gonna make sense. It's 382 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 2: gonna make sense. 383 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 3: But you know, the voice is an instrument, and that's 384 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 3: the way I use my voice. I don't need to 385 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 3: build all of the time. It's not always appropriate, especially 386 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 3: like for the story I'm trying to tell. When the 387 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 3: way I use instruments is to convey emotion, you know, 388 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 3: it's not just a razzle dazzle or to be the 389 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 3: best or anything like that. It's just like, Okay, I 390 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:53,479 Speaker 3: want to convey feeling small but hopeful, and that sounds 391 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 3: like maybe like a falsetto, or I want to sound nostalgic. 392 00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: You want you right there? 393 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 2: How'd you know I could tell. 394 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 3: I'll sing later though, Okay, okay, I mean you're paid too, 395 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: so yeah. 396 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: That'd be weird if later you were like, I'm gonna 397 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: do spoken words. 398 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's usually how I decide. 399 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 3: It's like do I want to sound more like stringy 400 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 3: or do I want to sound more like Barrett's own 401 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 3: sex kind of moment. 402 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: It's just like instrumentation. 403 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's also really fun because if you wanted to, 404 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: you could cover your own songs like just doing the 405 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,719 Speaker 1: opposite and completely change the way they're received in a way. 406 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 1: That's really cool. 407 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 2: Great idea. 408 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: Thank you.

What does it feel like to get a 415 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: call from the greats and people you were inspired by it, 416 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: and not just to play with, but at their lifetime 417 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: Achievement awards at the moment that is the peak of 418 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,239 Speaker 1: their achievement. They want you to be there and they 419 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: want you to market. 420 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 2: I mean, it feels surreal.

It's one of those things like every once 429 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 3: in a while on a beautiful vista, I'll look out 430 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 3: and I'll think about my whole life, you know, every 431 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 3: once in. 432 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: A while sound bowls in the background. 433 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 3: And just think like, wow, it's been incredible so far. 434 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 3: I wonder what's gonna have and next. 435 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: You get nervous in those moments with those with those artists. 436 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: Sometimes I never know when I'm won't be nervous, Like 437 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 3: I thought I would be nervous to do this, but 438 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 3: I'm not very nervous. 439 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 2: I think I'm coming off pretty natural. 440 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: Yeah.

No, we didn't talk much, but I get there. 451 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 3: I guess. The craziest story is, like I only heard 452 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 3: about this after he passed away, and of course, like 453 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: after my own experience with him. But apparently he has 454 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 3: disability to disappear into thin air. And I was telling 455 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 3: someone about it. I was like, yeah, Prince called us 456 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 3: back and he was like, can I play this song 457 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,479 Speaker 3: we had called give Me All Your Love? 458 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 2: Can I play that with you?

It's wearing a green 468 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,640 Speaker 3: velvet jacket, playing a green guitar, and he just starts 469 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 3: shredding like it was awesome, you know, And then I 470 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 3: started we double solo a little bit and I was. 471 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 2: Like, this is amazing. 472 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: And then the song's done after like a while, and 473 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 3: he kisses me on the cheek and I was like wow, 474 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 3: and then he jumps off the stage and disappears in 475 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: thin air. Yeah, Like I was like I had a 476 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 3: next song to do, but I kept being like, where 477 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: did he go? There's nowhere to disappear to over there, 478 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: like how did he do it?

You know. 518 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 3: I did see myself in Thelma, and I learned something 519 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 3: through the process, which was, like, I don't feel very 520 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 3: comfortable being vulnerable because there's times in a movie where 521 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 3: I gotta be like scared or like unsure or like 522 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 3: please don't do this, Like I'm I'm just not like 523 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 3: that in my daily life. So I really struggle with 524 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 3: doing that. So like I feel like I learned something 525 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 3: about that, you know. And also when it was when 526 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 3: the opportunity was presented to me, I was like, oh, 527 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 3: I can't do that. I've never done that before. I 528 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 3: don't know how to do that. That's too much, too 529 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 3: much writing on it. I don't want these people to 530 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 3: pay me to do that, and then I mess it up. 531 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: But like y'all, if y'all got an opportunity that comes 532 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 3: to you and you say I don't think I. 533 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 2: Can do it, Just like, do it? Do it, Just 534 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 2: do it, because I'm so glad I did it. 535 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 3: I didn't know I could do it, and I found 536 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 3: out that I could, And now it kind of changed 537 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 3: my perception on who I am, Like, oh, yeah, I 538 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: can do things that are scary. You know. 539 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: That's a lesson I learned a couple of years ago, 540 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: and I had to tell myself, like, with certainty, whatever 541 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: comes your way, if someone else thinks you can do 542 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: it and they offer it to you, or the opportunity comes. 543 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 2: Just do it. 544 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: And like particularly because men do that. 545 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 2: All the time, right, Just do it. 546 00:25:55,040 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: Just do it, Nike, Thanks sponsor.

Never 549 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: feel like you're trapped into something, especially as a creative person. 550 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,239 Speaker 1: I had to follow. I guess you would call it 551 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: the muse. I had to follow where it was coming from, 552 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: and it was just away from that. I had to 553 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: do it. And then earlier this year, you said, the 554 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: door is not closed on a reunion.

Yeah, that's usually how I find most things, though. 560 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll probably pop up on Instagram or something, yeah, 561 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 3: like the Mews. Like I said, like, it's just a conversation. 562 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 3: Like lots of people ask me about that. Obviously it's 563 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 3: been like ten years, you know, and I'm cool with that. 564 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 3: My response is and will remain to be, like, when 565 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 3: that itch comes back up, that's a conversation I'm gonna 566 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 3: have with the guys. You know, they're both really cool 567 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: about it.

For me to make music, 579 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 3: I have to have actual life experience. I have to 580 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 3: have things going on.

So I just 584 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 3: kind of live my life. And the more life I 585 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 3: can live, I think, the better album I can make. 586 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, this most recent album, there's a lot 587 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: of breakup songs and when I have a breakup, yeah, 588 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: that was clear. But there was one song that one 589 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: of your one of your friends said, you walked into 590 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: the studio and you just you didn't have much down yet, 591 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: and you just said kind of turn on the mic 592 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: and see what happens and went for it.
