Inspired by creator and host Carmel Holt’s own 25 year career in radio, and lifetime devoted to music, SHEROES is a podcast that amplifies womxn’s voices in song and conversation. As the third production under the SHEROES name, following her syndicated public radio show SHEROES Radio, and SHEROES: Mixtape Memoir (Sonos Radio), the SHEROES podcast on Talkhouse acts as kind of creative lab, expanding to include mini-episodes that highlight the intersectional feminist heart of SHERO interviews, live tapings, roundtables and more. Carmel’s approach continues to be guided by a fierce commitment to diversity and inclusivity, showcasing a wide range of guests sharing their experiences spanning genres and generations, with a passion for amplifying new voices while recognizing and celebrating the womxn who paved the way.
On this week’s episode, host Carmel Holt welcomes one of her SHEROES, Kim Krans (creator of The Wild Unknown tarot decks) to the podcast to celebrate and discuss her journey back to music, as she has recently released her first solo album MIRRORMIRROR – her first recorded music in a decade. Kim was part of an indie band in the mid-late 2000’s called Family Band, whose star was on the rise when Kim created her first hand-drawn tarot deck, The Wild Unknown. In this moving conversation, Kim shares how her career unfolded, finding her way back to recording music again, and the importance of sharing your artistic gifts with the world.
