Chandra's interview with Chris-a-riffic is now archived! This was a lot of fun. Catch us live at the Fox Cabaret on Wednesday!

divest yourself from streaming,
pay directly for the music you love,
resist any urge to hierarchize the merit of others,
treat all projects as excuses to hang out with friends,
and most important, Do Not Talk Shit.

Produced and interview with Stephen malkmus so that was pretty rad. cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
