Meet Our Makers

03. Jonathan Meiburg

In this episode, I get to meet Shearwater frontman, Jonathan Meiburg. In this free-flowing and open chat, which Jonathan was nice enough to join me for between recording sessions, we discuss the projects he's been occupying his time with in quarantine, whether that be working on a new Shearwater record, finishing a record for his other band Loma, or putting the last touches on his long-in-the-works book, which he describes as being a natural history epic. We also talk about creativity in this time of quarantine, and what the future of the touring life might look like. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for listening.

02. Thor Harris

In this episode, I get to meet kindhearted drummer extraordinaire, Thor Harris. Thor is best known for drumming with bands like Shearwater and Swans, but he has had a long, esteemed career, playing with many of our favorite musicians. We have a nice chat about music, art, family, kindness, politics, the current pandemic sweeping the globe, and more. I hope you enjoy.

01. Adam Wiltzie

In this inaugural episode of Meet Our Makers, I speak with composer and Stars of the Lid co-founder Adam Wiltzie, whose current band, A Winged Victory for the Sullen, just put out their third album last fall. We have a chat about music, the various projects he's been involved in, film scoring, as well as the current pandemic and the state of his life in Belgium, where he's lived since the 90s. I hope you enjoy.
