EPISODE 48: ORLA GARTLAND WANTS TO KISS UR FACE FOREVER

Back with a new episode for the first time in a YEAR. Oops.

In this one I’m chatting to someone who I’m personally a huge fan of, while also being my first episode back in a LONG time, and my first international guest (as older listeners of this podcast and platform has previously been solely focussed on Australian music and artists). Safe to say I’m excited for this one.

On what is possibly the longest distance zoom call I’ve ever done, I’m here with Orla Gartland!

“You might consider At Least I’m Free something like a second debut album for WAAX — a creative and emotional rebirth that’s resulted in some of the band’s finest, punchiest songs ever” and that’s exactly what this ep is all about. Songwriting, hardships, mental health, industry struggles, and coming out the other side. Enjoy.
