I think that's a good way to be, 260 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 2: you know. 261 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 8: I mean you know that's because you're like constantly learning 262 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 8: new songs. That feeling that like live wire of not 263 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 8: being comfortable, there's something exciting a little bit. 264 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: Why I was always drawn to jazz because you know, 265 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: you could change it up every time and it didn't 266 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: have to stay so the same totally. 267 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 8: When you sing songs that you've sang for a long time, 268 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 8: do you find yourself changing them a lot? 269 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 2: I do. 270 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: I do, but not a purpose, like I just it 271 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: just kind of morphs into some different thing every time. 272 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. And I play with the drummer Brian. 273 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: Blade, who feels very alive, you know, like it feels 274 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: different every time, even if we've rehearsed something, you know, 275 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: it feels like there's something new every time. 276 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: And I think I define feel. 277 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 8: So rigid, Like it's so like if you play one 278 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 8: note flat, everyone's just like the fuck is she doing 279 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 8: over there? 280 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 281 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: I think that's why I was never good at classical music, 282 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: because I couldn't stick to the program. 283 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: It is amazing, Like it's so beautiful. It's kind of 284 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 2: like a. 285 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 8: It's like it's like like Dolly or something like. It 286 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 8: can't be what it is unless it's like so technically 287 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 8: like perfect. There's a reason exactly like Cervinsky and all 288 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 8: these things, like they're epic and wild, but they can't 289 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 8: actually be that unless the musicians are playing perfect, which 290 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 8: is kind of counterintuitive that the w wildness comes from 291 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 8: the like like the strictness of it or something. But anyways, 292 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 8: it was very traumatizing to like be in that kind 293 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 8: of world where also it's not even just that you 294 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 8: have to be perfect, it's that if you're not perfect, 295 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 8: people really like judge your character. 296 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 4: Really. 297 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, the Conservatory was very, oh conservatory petitive. Just the 298 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 8: word alone gives me a little bit of anxiety. But 299 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 8: you really did feel that on a personal Yeah, definitely. 300 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 8: I mean I think I think it's like, I don't know, 301 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 8: I feel like it's the pressure makes Diamonds situation at 302 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 8: conservatories where it's like people, I mean, you know, like 303 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 8: the like the natural instinct is to like procrastinate, and 304 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 8: especially when you're in your twenties, when you're in college 305 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 8: and stuff. But so they have to create an environment, 306 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 8: like think about it, all these kids are coming from 307 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 8: being teenagers in their hometowns to like, being in college 308 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 8: could easily be could easily be like getting waste every week, 309 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 8: and everyone still does all that stuff. But it's like 310 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 8: kind of the the trope that you like slack off 311 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 8: when you're in college, but it's like the opposite when 312 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 8: you're in conservatory. It's like, oh, you might have been 313 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 8: like hot shit in like whatever bump fuck Idaho, but 314 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 8: now you're at Easter Ees and you're like actually the 315 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 8: lowest on the call sheet. So it's like that pressure 316 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 8: was really intense. But I really, like I was saying, stress, 317 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 8: it made me achieve really highly in indie because the 318 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 8: bar is so low in indie rock. 319 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: And when you went back to indie rock, you were like, 320 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: I got it totally. 321 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 8: I was like, oh, I can do thirty percent of 322 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 8: what I was doing before. 323 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's still one hundred and fifty percent and it's. 324 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: Still well and it's cool and you get to write 325 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: your own songs. That's crazy that you started late. I 326 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: thought I started late. I started when I was twenty Really. 327 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, really like, but you were improvising, so you were 328 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 8: like writing melodies and stuff. Classical musicians literally we just 329 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 8: learn we learned sheet music. You don't even learn how 330 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 8: to like compose any sort of musical phrase. It's so bizarre. 331 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: Do you remember the first song you wrote? Did you 332 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: have a just a lightning moment or was it, Hey, 333 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: I need to start writing songs because that that seems fun. 334 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 8: I wrote a lot of instrumental pieces first, like because 335 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 8: I had a little bit of background of like arranging 336 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 8: strings and wins for other people's records. Like I was like, 337 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 8: I discovered my like byness, my like by rock and classicalness. 338 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 8: I was like, oh, I can, like I can kind 339 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 8: of participate in the rock and folk world by doing 340 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 8: charts like of string and horn arrangements. And then I 341 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 8: like started learning guitar, and then I would kind of 342 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 8: make these instrumental pieces that were like guitar and like 343 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 8: midi strings or whatever, and then I would slowly try 344 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 8: to add vocals. And then eventually I was playing in 345 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 8: another band and I was just around enough songwriting that 346 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 8: I was like, I think, I think I can I 347 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 8: can try this now, yeah, twenty six or twenty seven. 348 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: But did you always sing? I sang in choir in 349 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 2: like elementary school. 350 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: But did you feel like your voice was also like 351 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: kind of shy or were you? Was that part easy 352 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: because it sounds so natural. 353 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 8: I think, well, now I've like I've been a front 354 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 8: person in my project since like twenty eighteen or something, 355 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 8: so that's crazy. 356 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: It's almost like I. 357 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: Know, but it still just sounds like very natural, like 358 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: like you've been doing it for since you were little. 359 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 8: Well, that's the thing I think about being a songwriter. 360 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 8: You just write where it feels natural. 361 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: Too. 362 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 8: It's like, yeah, harder to sing other people's songs because 363 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 8: I mean, if you're a good writer, you write and 364 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 8: I'm still working on this, but if you're a good writer, 365 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,239 Speaker 8: you write in your own sweet spot. Yes, so the 366 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 8: melody is just locked in, and I think that's a 367 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 8: skill set in itself, which is like I'm actually I'm 368 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,479 Speaker 8: teaching this school of song like songwriter or shop in April, okay, 369 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 8: And one of my like modules or one of my 370 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 8: lessons is called start starting from the voice or like 371 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 8: lead with the voice, because I think it's really typical 372 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 8: to write chords and then you have to find where 373 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 8: your voice fits within the chords, especially when you're first 374 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 8: starting because you're like, oh, I can play EG and 375 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 8: D on the guitar, like this is a miracle. Let 376 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 8: me just like try to find my vocal melody in 377 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 8: there somewhere. But actually the voice has its own place. 378 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 8: Like everyone's vocal chords are like physically so different, and 379 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 8: we have such different ranges and even notes where our 380 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 8: voice just like feels so good, you know, like there 381 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 8: have certain notes where you're like, oh, my vibrot out 382 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 8: just like like sleighs on this note or whatever. So 383 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 8: I'm trying to get better about writing from the voice 384 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 8: first and then finding the chords to match it instead 385 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 8: of like trying to fit my voice into the text 386 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 8: of progression. 387 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: Really good tip. Yeah, I don't even join. 388 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 2: My class now. I want to use that, and that's amazing. 389 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I never think to do that, but I think 390 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: when I do, if I find like a cool chord progression, 391 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: I like, my voice goes to the range it feels right, 392 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: and so if it's sitting weird in a certain range, 393 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: I'll just write something low. Yeah, so I'll adjust that way. 394 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: But that's a really good idea. 395 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. 396 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 8: Well, just I feel like we have moments in our 397 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 8: songs where like, oh, that part feels so good, and 398 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 8: I'm like, oh, if you start with the voice the 399 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 8: whole song can front like that exactly. Literally, just write 400 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 8: where your voice felt good. So I'm not I'm not 401 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 8: guaranteeing anything. I'm just suggesting. 402 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 4: Now. 403 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 8: It's a great tip, right people, Yeah, what's your writing 404 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 8: practice right now? 405 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 2: I don't have a like a practice. 406 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: I think I used to think that I needed to 407 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: find my way, and over the years I realized my 408 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: way is, you know, do a quick voice memo if 409 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: something hits yeah, and then I feel like musically I 410 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: can always hear some kind of chord in my head 411 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: under it, and if it's confusing, I'll do like a 412 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 1: bass note and I'll sing the melody so that. 413 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: I know what I'm doing. 414 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 8: You know. Voice memo on the iPhone has a new 415 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 8: thing now where you can layer. 416 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 2: You can only do two layers, but it's. 417 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 8: Kind of a game change because then you can like 418 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 8: sing a melody and then you can layer on top 419 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 8: of it. You can be like yeah or whatever, so 420 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 8: you can you can kind of fill out your court 421 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 8: a little bit. 422 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good tip. Usually I feel like I 423 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: can hear it enough or I'll be like doom, you know, 424 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: I'll do like weird stuff like that, and then eventually 425 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: if I'm recording or right trying to work on stuff. 426 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I find that on 427 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 1: the airplane, I go through all my voicemaim memos with 428 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: like noise canceling headphones. 429 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 8: I hurt them. Yeah, the ones that are worth coming back. Yeah, 430 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 8: and I'll like make a folder or I'll write some. 431 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 2: More on the song. Just on the plane. 432 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 8: I feel like it's like the only time where nobody's 433 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 8: bothering me totally. And also it's like the context is 434 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 8: so removed. Even though you wrote it, it almost feels 435 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 8: like someone else did. And it's hard to get that 436 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 8: kind of perspective with your own work. Yea, It's like 437 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 8: that's why collaborating is so amazing, because it's like someone 438 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 8: else's brain is processing what you do. It's really hard 439 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 8: to get outside of your own brain. But there's something 440 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 8: about when you're on a plane. It's like, I think 441 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 8: scientifically proven that you're like not yourself really that I 442 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 8: was always crying on the plane. 443 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: Oh I thought it was the lack of oxygen. I 444 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: guess that's why it's like a combination of that. 445 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: Definitely cryed on planes, definitely, But yeah, I think that 446 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: or taking a long walk without your without headphones and 447 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: with you know, airplane mode, but you can listen to 448 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: stuff or write in your head. 449 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 2: I think that's a nice way to do it. Definitely. 450 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 2: I've written on walks before. Yeah, for sure. 451 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: Do you have like a practice where you write or 452 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: do you just sort of let it come like that? 453 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 2: I definitely do. 454 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 8: I feel like I'm very I feel like some people 455 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 8: their album is like their magnum opus, like it's like 456 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 8: their baby. The album itself is like their Everything they 457 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 8: do is like for the album. But for me, I 458 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 8: feel like I'm so much more process oriented. I think 459 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 8: probably because I grew up playing French horn and like 460 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 8: playing in a symphony, so I wasn't writing as much. 461 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 8: The thing I did was playing, and like was being 462 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 8: in the middle of the sound. So I get really 463 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 8: obsessed with like a sound world, whether it's like pop 464 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 8: or metal or classical, and then I just get really 465 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 8: obsessed with like playing in that or like figuring out 466 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 8: chord progressions or learning the vernacular of a certain genre. 467 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 8: And then the album is just kind of like a 468 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 8: product of almost like a dissertation of like what I 469 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,959 Speaker 8: kind of learned while I was in that era, okay 470 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 8: doing that, so. 471 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: Like the melody and lyrics just sort of get woven 472 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: into It's. 473 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 8: Almost like I like, if I got really into pop 474 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 8: before I made my last record, I was just like, 475 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 8: why is pop so good? 476 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 2: Like what is it about? 477 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 8: Like you know, like it can be pulp or it 478 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 8: can be Rihanna, but like they're both pop. Like David Bowie, 479 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 8: there's so many different genres, but a pop song is 480 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 8: a pop song, and like what makes a pop song 481 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 8: a pop song? For example, I had never written a 482 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 8: song where the verse and the chorus are over. 483 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: The same chords. 484 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 8: I was like, what you could write the verse and 485 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 8: a chorus are in the same chords, and it's like, yeah, bitch, 486 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 8: that's pop music.
