![]() On “Beauty Marks”, you talk about wanting to be a little girl, starving and sick, beauty and pain. Yeah, all of us grew up on that, so lets just create new that. Ruby had a camcorder and my friend Jo Barajas filmed us in the back of her boyfriends old car. And I feel like the song is kind of ambiguous in terms of what kind of love its about. So much of the experience of love is girls talking about it with each other.Įxactly. I wanted the video to be about girl best friends. I have a feeling in two years everyone will be ripping it all off.įor the song “Winona”, the video is perfect. Its sort of Fiona Apple, Nina SImone, i don't know just something I never see at live shows. She makes songs that pierce right through you. She’s an amazing pianist and makes this music thats really intense. I love Taraneh, Thoom, my friend Nussy Andrews who played a show with us in Ridgewood. Who are some people you really like in New York right now? All of a sudden all these girls have come in and its making it exciting to go to shows again. ![]() Its time for the return of the band… Guys are always doing it but its boring and no ones paying attention. New York really needed instruments again. ![]() There’s an interesting kind of Nu grunge. And I’ve been inspired but just like friends lately. Which I feel like you can’t hear sonically, but lyrically… Also Sonic Youth, always. Recently I’ve been listening to a lot of The Sundays, Emilíana Torrini. What are your biggest musical references? But the music still sounds sort of lonely. But when we think of the OG grunge scene we get imagery from when these people had all come together, started bands, and were having a moment in the Pacific Northwest or whatever. I think a lot of people who grow up outside of cities have a very isolated experience. Which is not super grunge, and not very inner city. Growing up in Florida, I think about having a small town aesthetic, running through the woods-vibe. Actually on my unreleased, new stuff they are from the same place, but when I’m thinking of visual references they’re a lot more movie based and things I see and from the internet. I personally feel like your vibe is Jamie Bochart meets Courtney Love.Īre your look and sound references the same? You mention how intertwined visuals and sound are for you. Well you always hold that up in the future, like look how raw I used to be. But thats some peoples favorite work from me, the first album. I cobbled my band together and I already had an album written so we put together this really awfully produced album, that I feel now is unlistenable. Its always my goal to put stuff out… like I found one of my friends who’s a producer and she said she’d love to produce something for someone else. When I write a song the whole time I’m thinking what the video would look like or what a cover would look like. Is it difficult to release music or be ready to play it publicly? How do you get to the point where you’re ready to take it there?
