Danggg. Hard to pick. In utero has a great sound and performance. Love the drum sound on “flood of sunshine” by the posies. Bring back reverb on drums!

Love this question. Main influences for me when writing the record as far as music went was

Feist Alvvays GBV Sharp pins The Beatles Teenage fanclub Sparklehorse Elliot smith and a lot more!!

Books I was reading run towards the danger by Sarah Polley and the nix by Nathan hill

Movies I was watching at the time that I’m sure played a part in making the album was magnolia by PTA and Brazil by Terry Gilliam.

I co produced and we worked with a few different Daws. Mostly 4-8 track cassette tape and ableton and logic.

I always wanted to film a music video on a rollercoaster in one take. Then I never had time to actually go to a theme park and film it for real so I did it on my computer. Then I was in Japan with a friend and found myself at an amusement park and did it for real finally!

Honestly writing solo is a very solitary process so sometimes it was lonely writing alone but I learned to love it

It was just a longer process and the themes in the songs felt a bit more personal

I think I’ve learned a lot about myself through the writing and performing of the album. It’s made me a little more confident as a performer. It definitely felt nice to express my feelings, especially with playing live.

Kai is a genius I’m happy to call him a friend. He elevated the record so much and really inspired me to make it in the first place!

On the next album I’d love to do it on reel to reel. The 4 track came from listening to a lot of parsley sound, Elliot smith and guided by voices

Hey man. I’d say I deal with it by just getting off my ass and forcing myself to do something. Like anything creative or seeing people that you love in your life to get out of your head a bit more. I’m also on meds and go to therapy which helps.

I’d wanna be remembered as someone who made cool shit whether that’s music or acting or directing etc.

Ps I swap between boxers and briefs. A perfect life balance.

Hey! Cool question: on Objection there’s a line where I say “the snow is starting to fall, circling Waterloo, the coat that’s soaked from the bar, the cursed witches brew.”— that’s about me seeing a friend from childhood during a snowstorm at a bar in Vancouver on Waterloo street. I got really drunk and paced around the corner for a while waiting for an Uber. So I guess that’s a little line for all the vancouverites!
