187
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: piano player. I clank a lot. I'm a piano.

188
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not a big like listen back. I think

189
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 4: I should have been. It might have made a big difference.

190
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 5: Really well.

191
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 2: I don't like.

192
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 4: Reviewing things when they've just happened. I like to ride

193
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 4: the like energy of whatever the show was. But I

194
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 4: think you can learn a lot by listening and seeing

195
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 4: how it's translating. And I only started doing that because

196
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 4: it freaks me out, so.

197
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 2: I know, I'm a little pounder. It's not the fun part.

198
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 2: It's not the fun part.

199
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: No, Yeah, but I think that's cool that you don't

200
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: want to do that. Most people overthink things and then

201
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: they perfect it until it's soulless, you know. So yeah,

202
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: it's better to not do that. Yeah, yeah, thank you.

203
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: Yeah you play guitar grate too.

204
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 2: What came first? Piano first?

205
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I took lessons for a year when I was twelve.

206
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 2: And then the.

207
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 4: Teacher who was great, but she kept trying to stop

208
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 4: me from moving and because I did this at.

209
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 2: The piano all the time, and I was like this isn't.

210
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 4: Fun And the t T tata math part, I was like,

211
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 4: I'd rather learn it by ear. I did take music theory,

212
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 4: but I failed it twice in school and I was like,

213
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 4: so I came up on that and then but I

214
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 4: just kept playing piano.

215
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: I loved it. I'd find those empty rooms more.

216
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: By ear, colleges, bite ear and just like meandering things

217
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 4: new real purpose behind it. And then I didn't pick

218
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 4: up guitar until I started writing songs.

219
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: Okay, did you find it easier to write on guitar

220
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: because it was like more basic in a way, or

221
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: I don't.

222
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: I wish I want to learn more chords because I

223
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 4: tend to write the same chord formation just because I

224
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 4: don't know what I'm doing on guitar, and I find

225
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 4: it easier on piano, know for some really and yeah,

226
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 4: funny because I like dissonance a lot and I like

227
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 4: just sort of I have to write out all the

228
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 4: letters of every single really chord, okay, to know there's

229
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 4: a lot of arrows and.

230
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 2: You have a whole system that's percent you. Yeah, I

231
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 2: try and share it. She published those. I mean it's

232
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 2: great because if I ever lose them, everybody's like, I

233
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 2: don't know what this is, it's going to help them. So, yeah,

234
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: how about you?

235
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 1: I well, I mean I started on a piano, and

236
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: then I think when I moved to New York, I

237
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: started playing guitar because I didn't have a piano yet.

238
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: And then I started writing songs on guitar. It was

239
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: a simpler more because I learned jazz piano at first,

240
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: and so everything had a seventh chord or like an alteration,

241
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: and I couldn't write. I don't know, I didn't really

242
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: write on it. And then when I started playing guitar

243
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: and it was just playing these simple chords, then melodies

244
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: and lyrics came easier.

245
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, crazy. And then do you play bass as well? No,

246
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 4: I have a drums. I feel like I dabble. Isn't

247
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 4: that fun?

248
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: It's so fun? Do you play drums?

249
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 4: I think it's the hardest instrument to play. Yeah, like

250
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 4: I I cannot. I'm good at tambourine. I had roles

251
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 4: in previous bands on a tambourine, and I've tried playing drums, and.

252
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 2: But once you sit.

253
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 4: Down and try, it really gives you an appreciation for

254
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: an incredible drummer.

255
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 2: Like I used to you know, I'd look back and

256
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 2: be like, why can't you play this?

257
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 4: Or like switch that, And then I was like, please,

258
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 4: never give you a commentary again, like yeah, it's really hard.

259
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 2: It's hard, but it's so fun.

260
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: Well, I mean I only plays very simple back beats

261
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: in the band. Put some boots, yes, Sasha, Yeah.

262
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 4: But.

263
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 2: It's so fun. Yeah yeah, so great.

264
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 8: Yeah.

265
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: Now I want to play more drums. I want to learn.

266
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 2: I think I want to do like a string instrument.

267
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, always to do that.

268
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

269
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: I picked up the fiddle once for about a few months,

270
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: and that was something I really wanted to do, and then

271
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: I had a kid and.

272
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 2: I forgot about it.

273
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 5: I got the kids.

274
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: I think it was while I was pregnant and I

275
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: was just kind of nesty and I was like, I

276
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: want to play the fiddle.

277
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 2: That's amazing. Then I haven't touched it.

278
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 5: Oh wow.

279
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 2: I wonder if you if you did, if there'd be

280
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 2: a reaction. I wonder. Yeah, I don't know, I should

281
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: try that. I don't think.

282
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: I don't think you remember at this point.

283
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 10: You never.

284
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 2: So did you sing from an early age.

285
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 4: A little bit in like different choirs, like school choirs.

286
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: In high school? There was a thing called the swing choir.

287
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 4: Where you like dance and do those kind of things.

288
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 2: Familiar with you.

289
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 1: Did you do what I wasn't in the one In

290
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: my high school they had a show choir. Yeah, but

291
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: I was in like the jazz singers, which was less dancy.

292
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

293
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 4: I love to dance, but I'm not a great dancer,

294
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 4: but I love doing it, and so this was fun.

295
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 4: And then I did music theater stuff and did you

296
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 4: do plays and things like that?

297
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: I maybe in junior high junior high. Yeah, I went

298
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: to an arts high school. So once I got there,

299
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: it was very focused on jazz, yes, because it was

300
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: more special specialty.

301
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 4: And then you started playing the late night clubs early, right, How.

302
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 2: Old were you?

303
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: I mean I was in college in Denton, Texas and

304
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: for two years and I really just played restaurants and

305
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: I was in a band that had a few gigs

306
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: where I sang and I was the front person, which

307
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: was very awkward for me because I was not I

308
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: was not a great front person.

309
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 2: I'm still not.

310
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 1: It's hard, yeah, because I'm used to being behind an instrument,

311
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: so I never had to learn that.

312
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 2: Skill of like working the crowd or moving.

313
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 4: It's such an other area of showmanship that it's not

314
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 4: necessary a natural thing.

315
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 2: Unless it is totally natural.

316
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and I I think I've also seen so

317
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: many people do it where I'm like cringing a little,

318
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,239
Speaker 1: So I don't ever want to do that.

319
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to be unnatural.

320
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 4: And it's almost like you have to start it out

321
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 4: of the gates. It's like you can't adopt sort of

322
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 4: a showmanship style. Yeah, if people start knowing you see,

323
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 4: I think your voice is so velvety and layered that

324
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 4: that's the commanding attention, I think it would be.

325
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: Well, but I do know what you mean because I

326
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: remember at some point I got realated to Tom Waits,

327
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: and my drummer at the time, Andrew Borger, used to

328
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: play with him, and he was talking about how he

329
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: has all these things that he does on stage that

330
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: you know, there's like dust on his coat, he's like

331
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: stage dust, and like really also he plans it all,

332
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: he's just not and he's like, yeah, there's something theatrical

333
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: about it.

334
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: And then I started wanting to do something like that.

335
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: And then yeah, it felt weird to just start doing

336
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: something very effect like different, even though it doesn't seem

337
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: affected if you start out doing it. I mean, like

338
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: I wanted to wear wigs and yeah, you know, wear different.

339
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:23,439
Speaker 4: I know me too, Like I love that idea. I

340
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 4: saw Tom Waits and he had he did he had

341
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 4: the piano was on a platform. It was a wooden

342
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 4: platform covered and saw ust, so that when he would

343
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 4: smash his boot for the first time he'd hear it

344
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 4: was like a drum kick drum under it and the

345
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 4: sawdust would come up and so cool.

346
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 2: I thought that was it was beautiful.

347
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like, I don't know, it's it's tricky

348
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 4: little stage production things that add a little element could

349
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 4: be something, or we could just like come out in spacesuits.

350
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 4: I think I would see that show, but I think.

351
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: I would feel too too self conscious about that.

352
00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

353
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it now.

354
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know like David Boy, you know, he always

355
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: changed it up, but he was always.

356
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 2: Doing something so different. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah.

357
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: Do you ever stand up and sing without playing an

358
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: instrument at your shows?

359
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 4: Yeah?

360
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 2: Every now and then.

361
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 4: I have a song called Elephants, and I was doing

362
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 4: that a cappella a little bit, and that was fun

363
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 4: because that's how I wrote it.

364
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: So it had a thing that was kind of magical.

365
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 4: And and then depending on where it is, I'll do

366
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 4: some I'll do a lot of touring in Asia, and

367
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 4: there's a different audience energy with my songs in Asia

368
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 4: for me, where we can stretch it a little bit

369
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 4: so that I will take the mic off and run

370
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 4: around and be a very sort of fun different front.

371
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: So you're like, there's total which was hot, fun pop

372
00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: icon in Agent.

373
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 4: I mean, wouldn't that be nice? No, it's not quite that,

374
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 4: but it is like more. It feels like otherworldly in

375
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 4: that way. I think because they discovered my early records

376
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 4: later after I had a good sort of run as

377
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 4: my solo career in the States, and so I felt

378
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 4: like it was newer for them in a way and

379
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 4: I could try a little more out.

380
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 2: That's so fun.

381
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys go over there a lot, right.

382
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 4: We do all over Yeah, a lot. And I've gone

383
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 4: to Korea many times. South Korea, China We've been going

384
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 4: to I've been there about like seven or eight times, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore.

385
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, just different realms. It's very fun. That is fun. Yeah,

386
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 2: do you ever go international anymore?

387
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: I do, but I haven't been anywhere like that in

388
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: a very very long time.

389
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

390
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: I go to Japan a lot, like every few years. Yeah,

391
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: but I yeah, I'm kind of overdue for the rest.

392
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

393
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: After I had kids, I feel like I had to

394
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,160
Speaker 1: sort of limit everything.

395
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 2: Sure, you know.

396
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well you're a workhorse in terms of so many projects.

397
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 2: That's the other thing is like p used to tell me,

398

00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 4: and she's sitting in over here.

403
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 2: I'm like, man, I'm like.

404
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 4: It's really I read this book, the Patti Smith Just

405
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 4: Kids Book. Yeah, I kicked my ass in terms of

406
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 4: like a sorry, I don't know if I'm allowed to

407
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 4: say that. Yeah, leave that kicked my kicked my booty

408
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 4: into what it can mean to do some form of

409
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 4: art every day and live an artistic life style on

410
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 4: a consistent basis of and for no other than just

411
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 4: doing it, like writing a poem and doing a painting,

412
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 4: writing a song, whatever it is. And you strike me

413
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 4: as somebody sort of akin to that, just consistently creating

414
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 4: and showcasing what you find.

415
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 2: And it's beautiful. Thanks.

416
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,720

Speaker 2: I rearrange furniture. I mean that's like, that's like you

418
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 2: need an outlet. I love the kind of thing.

419
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, sort of making making spaces excuse me. And I

420
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 4: always think there's a there's a an avenue for collapsible

421
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 4: stage decore that needs to happen, like things for that

422
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 4: can squish and.

423
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 2: Fit but looks but looks cool. It looks like a

424
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 2: big vision and I.

425
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: Would rent it if you make it. I'm always looking

426
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,719
Speaker 1: for something to put on the stage.

427
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 5: Me too.

428
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. Well, Barbara Streisen does that. Oh my gosh,

429
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 2: she has a trailer. It was amazing. That makes it

430
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 2: feel like her living room. That's nice. Yeah, so you

431
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 2: do like a blow up version, I think totally.

432
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 4: I mean I'm really seeing this whole alien spacesuit couch

433
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 4: living room.

434
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 6: I don't know if this is I think.

435
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 11: But I think I think they could.

436
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 2: He just hasn't been done yet, which is me. Yeah,

437
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 2: we'll see.

438
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not good at sitting still, I've realized, But

439
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: at the same time I want to. Yeah, you know,

440
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: so sometimes I feel like I've done this since the beginning,

441
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: when when I get off a big long tour and

442
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: I don't have anything to do. The sidebands have been

443
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: really great for that because it's a way to play

444
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 1: music without having to think about the next big thing. Sure,

445
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: but also like I'll take a pottery class right now,

446
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: I'm taking a painting class.

447
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 2: It's so good. It's my favorite thing to.

448
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: Do, all kind of painting, oil all. Yeah, it's just fun.

449
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: It's great having a hobby that's not music. Yeah, and

450
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: it's hard to do it. Yeah, to remember that it's

451
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: nice to do, you know, it's hard to remember to

452
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: do it.

453
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, to take it's good to have your your creative

454
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 4: channel in something that has no we really are like

455
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,480

00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 2: And yeah, I love that.

457
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 1: But this podcast is so fun for me because it's

458
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: it's creative, but it's.

Speaker 2: Also kind of loose, which is how I am. Yeah.

460
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 2: I hate to practice, me too.

Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

475
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 5: If you let us do whatever we want.

476
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 2: I like that idea.

477
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, it would be fun.

478
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.

479
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 1: Obviously, will you play piano for me?

480
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

481
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 1: Okay to sweet I don't think I played your piano

482
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 1: when I was at your house. It's dark Hawaii, but

483
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: it's heavy, which I like. Yeah, I like a dark piano.

484
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: This one's kind of dark. Yeah, beautiful. So this is

485
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: a song from your new album. This is the first

486
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 1: song on that. Yeah, it's backwards deep, the deep one.

487
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 2: It's got some depth to Yeah.

488
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 4: We did have a debate about is that the right

489
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 4: title or the right song choice to do as a

490
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 4: first Yeah, first song, and then it just made and

491
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 4: actually ended up making sense with the flow of the record.

492
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 2: It's hard to sequence a record, really hard. Yeah.

493
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, I can't.

494
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 5: Be no use, Steve. If I can't be good for myself,

495
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 5: I can make it better for any body else with

496
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 5: sides gone, turn off.

497
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 12: Outy, nothing's gone to change until I do.

498
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 5: I can't be no use, steal. If I can make

499
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 5: the summer, I can make it better than can.

500
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 9: Face the soul.

501
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 10: It would be so easy to say easy unless what

502
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 10: I feel.

503
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 13: I don't know, the want a little back end, regret

504
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,440

Speaker 7: house back.

507
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 5: There's not a place that I can be so far

508
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 5: from with them.

509
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 14: I'm scared, and yet I'm not. I'm no way you

512
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 10: I'm just afraid slipping backwards.

513
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 5: Back. There's not a place that I can be. Oh,

514
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 5: I am so litening and you're not in front of me.

00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,520

00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 5: Fact this not please that I can be.

521
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 6: That songs so sad.

522
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: Had you written a lot of these songs, had you

523
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: had them kicking around for a long time, or how

524
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: did it all come about for this record?

525
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 4: Like in twenty nineteen, I finished a lot of touring,

526
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 4: a couple rounds of asia US, and then I had

527
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 4: a batch of them, and I had taken twenty twenty

528
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 4: off and saved up all this money to go make

529
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 4: a record in twenty twenty, and then twenty twenty hit

530
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 4: and it was everything changed for everybody. And during that

531
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 4: time I actually wrote a few more songs. I realized

532
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 4: I wrote almost every song on the same key, so

533
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 4: and it just became a mean doing something. And so

534
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 4: I actually went in and started trying to demo them,

535
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 4: five of them as like a short film or a

536
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 4: short in my head, like just something that bled one

537
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 4: into the other. And I started playing with transitions, and.

538
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 2: Then as time went on, I built sort of more

539
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 2: songs around it.

540
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 4: And that's where the figuring out the order and the

541
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 4: you know, time change from the perspective I had when

542
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 4: I first started writing the record versus when after going

543
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 4: through that change, some of it infiltrated, of course, and then.

544
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 2: And then we started recording in twenty twenty three and four. Okay,

545
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 2: something like that, Yeah, I'm doing little bits and pieces.

546
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 4: But then I had spent all the money that I

547
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 4: had saved to make the record, so I had to

548
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 4: go out and tour again, gotcha to sort of fillip

549
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 4: count and then we went pretty hard. Well, I guess

550
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 4: twenty three is when we really started digging in and then.

551
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, people don't realize that you have to

552
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: spend money to yeah, pay musicians and three times.

553
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:16,720
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

554
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: So many people just do stuff at home on their computers.

555
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: But it's so nice to work with people and collaborate.

556
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 4: It's so beautiful. Yeah, yeah, it's it's funny. It's a

557
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 4: the model is changing. I think it has to change

558
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 4: for different levels of artists. And yeah, financially, I just

559
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 4: finished a run and it's you know, it's it's like, wow,

560
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 4: I spent a lot of money on sort of to

561
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 4: go out and do it. I'm like, I wonder I

562
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 4: had discussion just doing it at the level that I'm at.

563
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 4: It's sort of like it's it's I have a lot

564
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,320
Speaker 4: of friends sort of where I'm at, and people have

565
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 4: to cancel tours because it's just the cost to do it.

566
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard of that happening so much years.

567
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 4: Too, I think so so it's it's always nice to

568
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 4: figure out new avenues of creativity, and even something like this,

569
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 4: which is contained in its own space and a certain respect,

570
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 4: is like so beautifully inspiring and wonderful.

571
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah it's fine. It's it's in the hole though,

572
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

573
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 2: It costs money to do it.

574
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 11: It does.

575
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 1: It's fine for now, but yeah, I don't know. I

576
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: know it'll ever get out of the hole.

577
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 2: I know, you know, it's definitely like a I think

578
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: things will change.

579
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 4: I do have high high hopes for sort of the

580
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 4: evening out of what is you know, important and crucial

581
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 4: and stirs your heart and compensation that makes it so you.

582
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 2: Can keep going at it, I hope.

583
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 4: So.

584
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I think people love to see live music,

585
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: but at the same time, people don't want to leave

586
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: their houses.

587
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 2: I know me too.

588
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,760
Speaker 5: I know it takes a lot to get to choke.

589
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of stopped inviting people to shows if

590
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,359
Speaker 1: I don't expect anyone to want to leave their house. Yeah,

591
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: like friends and stuff. Sure, Yeah, yeah, it's so hard.

592
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: It's really hard people get out of battled in. It's true,

593
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: and it's a whole evening. It's not just like the

594
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 1: comes to the show.

595
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 4: I have to struggle. I mean, we have so many

596
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 4: great venues in Woodstock, and I have to really like, Okay.

597
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 2: It's going to be a ten minute draw.

598
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 5: Even that far.

599
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 2: I know, it's kind of nuts.

600
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, they to psych yourself up for I do such

601
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 1: a funny age.

602
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 6: Maybe that's just our age.

603
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 5: I don't know.

604
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 2: I think there's a little bit of an age thing

605
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:45,879
Speaker 2: there too.

606
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 4: I mean, most of my audience now is probably in

607
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 4: bed by night, and like that's a healthy Like they

608
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 4: if I play an early show, they're like, thank god,

609
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 4: that's civilized.

610
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 6: I'm like, I agree, yeah, I know.

611
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, can I open for somebody? Yeah, late sound show,

612
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: go to bed. I know, I think that would be

613
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: my ideal gig.

614
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 4: I'm telling you, there's so many ideas happening right now.

615
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 4: Afternoon shows with alien costumes and sofas for everybody, sofas

616
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 4: for the musicians and class.

617
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 6: For the four pm show. Actually that might even be

618
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 6: too late.

619
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 1: One pm show one, I.

620
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 4: Like one if as soon as it starts getting dark,

621
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm try again tomorrow. I know.

622
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 2: It's so funny, crazy, Yeah, conversations. It's awesome.

623
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, I had other things I wanted to ask

624
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: you what they Oh, so, when you do tour Asia,

625
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 1: since it's a little bit of a different vibe, is

626
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 1: your audience younger?

627
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what it spans.

628
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 4: You know, I never even thought about it. It's it's

629
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 4: a pretty wide range. Yeah, it's a pretty wide range.

630
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 4: I would there probably is a bigger younger contingent just

631
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 4: because there might be signing the music younger.

632
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 2: So fun, it's so fun.

633
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:10,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's it's really it's intriguing to ask somebody younger,

634
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 4: how did you find this? You know, and I don't

635
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 4: even know what the channels. It's like a lot of

636
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 4: YouTube people are like your social media TikTok's the whole

637
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 4: all the things.

638
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 2: I think that's how they find a lot of things. Yeah,

639
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 2: those young people. Yeah, it's just.

640
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 1: That's why if you do figure out the way to

641
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 1: get yourself out there in that way, it's good.

642
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 4: I wonder if we're moving into a time where we

643
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 4: all become curators and they'll come to you for you know,

644
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 4: you're introducing so many artists into your world and so there,

645
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 4: and you do so many different things or same like

646
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 4: if I'm doing you know, if I feed the squirrels

647
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 4: whatever I do, if somebody said interested in that, Like,

648
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 4: but you're curating a world that I think that people

649
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 4: appreciate because there I just don't know if there's the

650
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 4: algorithms are really tricky.

651
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 2: So I think, just be you and do what you

652
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 2: do and showcase your world. And I think that's all

653
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 2: you can do.

654
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that used to be the advice people would

655
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: give when we were younger too and starting out playing music.

656
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 5: You just do you do.

657
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the same kind of yeah theory, I guess.

658
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, yeah.

659
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 1: But I think the younger generation is so having grown

660
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 1: up with it. I read this thing about how everyone

661
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: at the Grammys a couple of years ago, the young people,

662
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: they were all so good because they've grown up on camera.

663
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 2: It's like a whole other thing right at performing that thing. Oh,

664
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 2: I don't even think about that.

665
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 4: I know.

666
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: I didn't either until I read this somewhere and I was.

667
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 2: Like, oh, yeah, you're right, that's wild. I mean, I

668
00:39:55,520 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 2: guess in a way, the young young button was like

669
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 2: the Taos.

670
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: They're just there's just no when it's how to turn

671
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: it on in a good way. Yeah, yeah, and it's

672
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 1: natural and like, you know, I'm like.

673
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 2: That is so I don't know how to do that.

674
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 4: But I heard there was a study where kids who

675
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 4: were using like the with the VR sets or the

676
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 4: gaming or that the tricky part was that the colors

677
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 4: are so vibrant and the sounds are so vibrant that

678
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 4: when you take it off and it's like you're looking

679
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 4: at sort of daily life, the excitement factor isn't there.

680
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 2: Your dopamine gets yeah, which was I had never thought

681
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 2: about that. That's interesting too, that's freaky.

682
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,839
Speaker 1: That is freaky. I mean, I know the dopamine thing

683
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: with phones and touchscreen. Yeah, it's really bad. So I

684
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: started the television the other day and I was like,

685
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,280
Speaker 1: this is just a giant phone turned horizontally.

686
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 2: I'm like, why is this just occurring to me?

687
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 4: Now?

688
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,840
Speaker 2: It's some time sucking me in. It is, but somehow

689
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 2: it doesn't feel as bad.

690
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, But when I was a kid, I remember being

691
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 1: home from school, maybe watching eight hours of TV and

692
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 1: feeling like crap and knowing.

693
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 7: That that did it.

694
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 2: But it's still not the same.

695
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 5: You knew that.

696
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not as bad. It's not as bad.

697
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 6: Now, I'm like, yeah, please watch eight Hours.

698
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean not really, but I am. I know

699
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 2: over a screen it's wild, it's so wild. Yeah. Yeah, no,

700
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 2: I just sound like an old lady. I know me too, Like, no,

701
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 2: we're good, we're young.

702
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 11: Edit all that out, like cool, I think we're super cool.

703
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:34,760
Speaker 2: You were really cool.

704
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: So this new album are you going to do? Sarah's

705
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: was saying that you're doing like a string quartet version.

706
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 5: Or some of them. Yeah.

707
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 2: I did this living room in the house and.

708
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 4: We got this incredible string quartet and who I found

709
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 4: because they do a lot of.

710
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 2: Playing with Natalie Merchant cool. I saw them play, I

711
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 2: was like, who are these They're amazing. Do they have

712
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 2: a name, like a band name. They don't have their

713
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 2: own name, but.

714
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,240
Speaker 4: And there's three cores and then I think they're searching

715
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 4: for their fourth. But we got really lucky because they're

716
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 4: summer split in the city, summer in Upstate. We had

717
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 4: never met, I had never played with a string quartet.

718
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 4: I had never played without headphones, and so we had

719
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 4: like twenty people over and filmed this two day shoot

720
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 4: of seven I think six or seven songs and arranged

721
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,359
Speaker 4: them and just sort of flew by the seat of our.

722
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:53,280
Speaker 2: Pants and it was amazing.

723
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 4: We had everything under the sun happened where you know,

724
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 4: there was a copperhead in the yard, and I thought

725
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:59,919
Speaker 4: we'd film all these scenes in the yard.

726
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 5: And I know, I know.

727
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,720
Speaker 2: We he's the same guy, Cobra Kai. We got his number.

728
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 4: He came over with the equivalent of like a wardrobe

729
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 4: pincher or whatever looking for I'm like, is that really

730
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 4: going to protect you?

731
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:15,240
Speaker 2: Looking for this snake?

732
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 4: And you know that shifted where we're filming, and and

733
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 4: but yeah, we got some beautiful versions of the songs

734
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 4: and it was it was a magical two days that

735
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 4: I think we captured. So I'm gonna go through and

736
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 4: start sort of listening back to versions and and we'll put.

737
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,879
Speaker 2: The video piece of it together and release it early

738
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 2: next year. This sounds really beautiful. Yeah, just the sound

739
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 2: of strings in the room and your voice gorgeous. No headphones.

740
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 2: It was the no headphones was really interesting. Even with this,

741
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, like, what's that going to be.

742
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,840
Speaker 2: It's kind of wonderful. It's pretty nice. Yeah, if he

743
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 2: can do it, yeah, it's just like, yeah, I was

744
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 2: gonna say rubbing.

745
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:10,760
Speaker 1: Friction rubbing, but it sounded wrong. Then I got confused. Anyway,

746
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

747
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 2: What you mean?

748
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:15,320
Speaker 5: Thank you?

749
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 4: I do. It's like intertwining, like atoms of texture exactly.

750
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 5: We should write books.

751
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 1: I can't think of words anymore.

752
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:29,760
Speaker 5: Again. I'm so old.

753
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm starting to worry about my memory.

754
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 2: I have a terrible memory.

755
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's awful.

756
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,720
Speaker 2: Have you done that thing where you walk into a room.

757
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,359
Speaker 5: And you're like, I know, I know I'm in here.

758
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 2: Some songs about it?

759
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm literally I have a song about it called

760
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: Staring at the Wall. And it's like I literally go

761
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,399
Speaker 1: to every room and then I I leave the room.

762
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 1: I do something, but not the thing I meant to go.

763
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 2: Date. It's the phone for me. I think it's just

764
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,320
Speaker 2: like sucked on my attention.

765
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 4: Yeah.

766
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fast. Everything's fast. It's one minute to the next,

767
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,879
Speaker 2: minute to the next. That's why music is so nice.

768
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: I think it's like my only time to really just

769
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: be in the moment. Yeah, it's really hard to be

770
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 1: in the moment nowadays.

771
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 4: And yeah, and it's more important than ever, right, Yeah, Like,

772
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 4: are you in the metaphysical interest world at all?

773
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 2: Of what does that mean? Like consciousness.

774
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,240
Speaker 6: Please explain more.

775
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 4: Oh guy, just like the importance of things that fascinated me.

776
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 4: I went on deep dives in twenty twenty. These the

777
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 4: idea that we're all energy waves. Everything matter is like

778
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 4: an actual just moving energy, and that we're interacting and

779
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 4: our consciousness is sort of intertwined and.

780
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 2: We're collective, and these ideas of frequency and.

781
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 7: I like that.

782
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 2: Oh, it's amazing. You need to tell me more. I

00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 5: You know what?

789
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 4: For me? It? I think when you can maintain sort

790
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 4: of a frequency of gratitude, of love, of sharing, like

791
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 4: the highest that you can go, like on your best day,

792
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:25,279
Speaker 4: and then you start seeing the reactions of what you

793
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 4: can encounter every day, and how it reiterates the idea

794
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 4: that maybe we are co creating more than we think

795
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 4: we are, And especially when the world gets nuts and

796
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 4: there's so much zing on a consistent basis, this idea

797
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 4: of centering your own energy and grounding it and stillness

798
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 4: and breath work, and which I do because I chain smoke,

799
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 4: I mean I have to. I'm not saying I know

800
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 4: what I'm doing, but like there's a lot of like, yeah,

801
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 4: a lot to be gained in terms of like integrating

802
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 4: that so that what you're zinging out to the rest

803
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,879
Speaker 4: of the world is more balanced, more peaceful, and then

804
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 4: that starts to shift things. It's just shifts my world

805
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 4: on a daily basis, and it's not easy. But the

806
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 4: more you investigate it, the more interesting it becomes.

807
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 2: I like it. I'll send you some stuff, send me

808
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 2: some stuff. Do you have a practice you do every day?

809
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 2: I journal I do a lot of journaling. Do you

810
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 2: always do it in the morning or do you I'm

811
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 2: a morning person the first thing.

812
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, not every day, but I'll even like, you know,

813
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 4: sitting with the animals, the various animal yard animals that come.

814
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 2: That does a lot for me.

815
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:46,359
Speaker 4: And it's nice that clears something because I wake up

816
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 4: with it to do list like almost me too ready

817
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 4: to go.

818
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I have to stab myself from sending emails

819
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: too early or text bust.

820
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 6: I know, I'm just ready to go.

821
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 2: Do you know who does that? Which I really appreciate. King,

822
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 2: She's an early morning tester and I love that.

823
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, because you are.

824
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 4: Like and like Joan Osborne does it like there's a

825
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 4: couple of buddies who I'm like, they're up doing it,

826
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 4: Like I know that I could call any of them

827
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,399
Speaker 4: and we could have a whole like I've already had

828
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 4: three cups of coffee conversation because you're on it.

829
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 2: But yeah, I go the other direction.

830
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:26,719
Speaker 4: I don't even look at emails like great, I'm it's

831
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 4: a yeah, I'm just starting to get back into it.

832
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 2: I feel like emails kind of nobody looks at him anymore.

833
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 2: I wonder.

834
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think for business you have to sometimes

835
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,440
Speaker 1: some people. Yeah, I don't think young people look at emails.

836
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 5: I don't know that they.

837
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 2: I don't think they do. But I don't even know

838
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 2: if they look at texts, Like there's probably I.

839
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: Don't know, but I will say I used to be

840
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 1: wordy as a text. Yeah, but now I can't even

841
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:55,279
Speaker 1: read a paragraph.

842
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,919
Speaker 6: I can't focus on what somebody's saying.

843
00:48:58,520 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 2: Do you do the voice memo?

844
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:00,120
Speaker 9: Do it?

845
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:01,800
Speaker 1: I don't, And I hate I don't like it.

846
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 5: You don't.

847
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: I don't like it when I get one because then

848
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: I have to stop and listen to it, and it's

849
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 1: like I always read the translation instead.

850
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,240
Speaker 4: You don't even know how to make the trans translation.

851
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 4: But yeah, that's one of my things. Taking time out,

852
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:17,919
Speaker 4: I'm going to learn all these things about like foul

853
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 4: folders and computers and not to back up the computer.

854
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 2: And it's such a list of.

855
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 1: Like I know that the voice text thing is good

856
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 1: in a way, but I just I think I'm too

857
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 1: wrapped up in doing stuff.

858
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have a heart, you have a full plate.

859
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 2: I do, but I don't.

860
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not that I do, it's that I Yeah,

861
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: sometimes I just get wound up, you know, I understand.

862
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, as I drink more coffee, I think you drink

863
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 2: more coffee. Well this is so fun.

864
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:47,879
Speaker 1: Are you going back out on tour?

865
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 8: Uh?

866
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 5: Not yet.

867
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna Yeah.

868
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 4: I think the string quartet EP whatever that will become

869
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 4: is the main priority.

870
00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 2: Do you think you'll tour with the strings? You know,

871
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 2: I do a few special things.

872
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 4: I just came off a run that had violin and

873
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,280
Speaker 4: cello and Michael Chavis, who plays a little bit of everything,

874
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 4: and that arrangement was really nice. We played rooms that

875
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 4: already had real acoustic pianos in them and and that

876
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 4: had a thing to it, and I really love that.

877
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 4: So if there's a way to kind of continue.

878
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 2: That, I would do that. Yeah, I would love to

879
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 2: do that. Yeah, that would be nice. Yeah, so you

880
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,200
Speaker 2: tour the small band usually it just depends. Yeah, do

881
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 2: you have a tour solo?

882
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: I have?

883
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 2: I have, and I love it because you Okay, yeah,

884
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 2: I've never.

885
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 11: Done it really no, really.

886
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 1: No, I think I just it feels too hard or

887
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:53,760
Speaker 1: also boring, maybe like I'm afraid I'll get bored by myself.

888
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: I bet I get that. I get the internal thing

889
00:50:58,760 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 2: of like, but.

890
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:00,720
Speaker 1: You're not alone in your interact.

891
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 2: You are, so I forget that. Oh and people would

892
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 2: love it.

893
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 4: They would be just they would eat it up like

894
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 4: it's it's scary, right, the idea is scary, Yeah.

895
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 1: But it's intimate and in a way that is beautiful totally.

896
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:17,920
Speaker 1: When you do, when you've done it, you do some

897
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 1: piano and some guitar.

898
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 2: Piano and guitar. I think that would be nice.

899
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 6: Yeah.

900
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,360
Speaker 1: I think thinking about doing like an hour and a

901
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 1: half just on piano feels limiting.

902
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 2: It's a lot. Yeah, I think I missed the backbeat

903
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 2: of something and there.

904
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:32,240
Speaker 4: You know, there's I would use like a stomp pedal

905
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 4: or a couple of looped things so that I could

906
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:36,840
Speaker 4: you could trigger some things.

907
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 2: And I actually also did a like a projector movie.

908
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 4: Because there was something about having like a visual in

909
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:45,720
Speaker 4: tanem If you're doing.

910
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 2: Solo, that helped me my show. But I think people

911
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 2: would love it. I love that.

912
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then you you can't be like the connection

913
00:51:56,760 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 4: of another musician that you're like, yeah, I just like it.

914
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're so good at it. I feel like if

915
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 2: I was going to do a solo thing, I would

916
00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 2: have to practice it. Yeah, I don't I know the

917
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 2: thing I don't want to do.

918
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 11: Well.

919
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 2: I know, well, you could do exclusive like preview shows

920
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 2: or I'm just practicing.

921
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,680

956
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,040

967
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,200
Speaker 2: not so much. But I'd like to. But then that

968
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 2: would involve practicing and learning.

969
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,759
Speaker 5: Exactly, which is why for this next one. Yeah.

970
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:39,239

971
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 4: but and I love trying them if I have a

972
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 4: band or something, for sure.

973
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,759

00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:01,399
Speaker 4: Well.

980
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 1: I asked if you wanted to try a cover, and

981
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:06,600

Speaker 4: Yeah, Kevin Salem and I just went in and did

987
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 4: two versions. I think the movie actually has sort of

988
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 4: a more up tempo traditional version, and that was the

989
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 4: one that they used in the film, and then we

990
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 4: had one that was like really like hey yeah, and

991
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 4: that version I think maybe was on the soundtrack as well,
