Low Tide | A Post-Performance Podcast

In this episode of Low Tide, we sit down with  @AnthonyArya  to talk about growing up in the Bay Area music scene, busking on the street as a teenager, and what it was like going from local blues bars to The Voice at just 15 years old. We dive into the pressure of performing on national television, learning how to command a stage early, and why years of nonstop live shows shaped him into such a po...

In this episode of Low Tide , we sit down with Mackenzie Johnson for a conversation about growing up online, the evolution of internet music culture, and the strange vulnerability of learning how to be seen. We talk through the early YouTube cover era of artists, and how the shift from longform YouTube to shortform social media has fundamentally changed the way artists create, share, and survive o...

In this episode of Low Tide, we sit down with Rose Stoller after her Seawall Session to talk about leaving New York City, building community upstate, learning how to breathe again, and the creative freedom of making music on her own terms. We dive into her multidisciplinary background in theater and jazz, and her decision to stop giving away her money and creative energy to producers out of self-d...

Emma’s music often starts alone on the floor with a guitar in a strange tuning, and somehow ends up in rooms full of people who all feel like the songs were written about their own lives. In this episode of Low Tide, we talk about building a fake bedroom set to film an album across one sleepless night, what it feels like when your diary slowly becomes a live show that thousands of people are watch...

In this episode of Low Tide, we sit down with Boys Go To Jupiter for a conversation that’s as chaotic, funny, and heartfelt as their music, diving into their origin story from a now-legendary Hinge date to becoming a fully realized band, how early belief and collaboration shaped their trajectory, and what their songwriting process actually looks like behind the scenes. We unpack the creative visio...

He shares how recording an album in a cabin with dozens of friends shaped his sound, and how a “chill” potluck turned into a chaotic music video shoot. We also get into his DIY...

Darryl grew up in a small town in upstate New York where most of his musical education happened in cars, driving around listening to CDs and imagining different lives. In this episode of Low Tide, we talk about road trips, meeting your heroes, the discipline required to make art your life, and the strange emptiness that can show up right after you finish something you cared about for a long time....

Susie and I talk about growing up surrounded by art, leaving New York, finding herself in Chicago, and what happens after the structure of school disappears and you’re left to define “home” and “self” on your own. We talk about what happens when songs stop being therapy and start becoming something looser and more playful, and about learning to let songs tell stories instead of guarding them too c...

As you get older, you can either build anchors that tie you to a specific version of life or learn how to move freely toward new ones. Abby and I reflect on this as we talk about the slow, often invisible process of learning to trust yourself outside of performance or validation, and the space between who you are onstage and who you are when no one is watching. We talk about growing up singing in...

Low Tide is a post-performance conversation series, and episode one features a sitdown with SAINT KID, also known as Kii Kinsella. This conversation came from a very real place. For context: I found Kii’s music organically and spent months listening to it on repeat before we ever met. That shared history shaped the conversation in a way we didn’t plan for. We talk about going home and realizing yo...
