EP 80: Laura Lee (Khruangbin) Apr 14, 2020

Show notes

Andy gets reprimanded by his manager for getting *too* into video editing. On the Interview Hour, we welcome Laura Lee, bassist for Khruangbin and textbook definition of Cool. Laura talks staying present on stage, the makeshift summer camp she's made for herself, and the chilly barn that Khruangbin utilizes. Shawn, the Quarantine Bard, soothes us with a song for the era. Dolav yells about sports and then joins Andy to close the show out. Stay inside & reach out if you need a sympathetic ear. This is EP 80.
