For our fifth consecutive year there, the Talkhouse Podcast squad rolled out to the fantastic Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago last month to record artists in conversation backstage.
Over the years, this series has featured talks between Brian Wilson & Carly Rae Jepsen, Kamasi Washington & Thundercat, HAIM and Chvrches, and many more.
This week’s show features two young Chicago singer-songwriters who are both blowing up fast: Tasha and Lala Lala’s Lillie West. The two chopped it up on how much they’re learning all the time as their careers explode (including adjusting to having teams working around them); dealing with impostor syndrome; and the perils of making jokes onstage. Their talk also took in Jack White’s technophobia, the pluses and minuses of freeing the nipple onstage, and Marie Kondo-ing your Instagram.
