Q:

just curious if you consider your own music to be sorta modern southern gothic adjacent., the initial reason I personally feel like everything you made really clicked with me was because if felt so at home in the rural, occasionally run down southeastern virginia reality that I grew up around. as I really started pouring over the lyrics I realized there was also intentional allusions to the literary southern gothic canon; Flannery O'Connor etc. so just curious how you feel about being placed in that categorical space

Regardless I love that a band from NC is doing such cool things, thanks for all the music and I cant wait for Bleeds :)

A: Yeah! I feel like thatโ€™s a descriptor I definitely identify with because it implies proximity to those kind of writers like Oโ€™Connor which is soooo flattering hehe

I love reading books that take place near where Iโ€™m from, makes me feel so immersed! I feel like Iโ€™m writing the most with fellow southerners in mind to create that feeling for them of โ€œbeing seenโ€ or whateverโ€ฆ thatโ€™s why itโ€™s so surprising and cool that people outside of the region fuck with the music so much too!
