  • The Invisible Labour of Music Making

    The Invisible Labour of Music Making
    Feb 21 2021

    The labour theory of value says the value of a product should be determined by the amount of labour expended on it. If that was true, music would be very, very expensive to buy. But it's almost free these days.

    So how do we reconcile the countless hours of behind-the-scenes work that goes into every little 3-minute song on an album? In this episode, I interview musicians Nick MacLean and Jordi Comstock about the the invisible labour of music making.

    The Music: Margaritas and Magical Unicorns
    Feb 7 2021

    In the first episode of a new Hyacinth Podcast sub-series "The Music," I interview two of my best friends and longtime collaborators - Kim Wempe and Norma MacDonald are both songwriters and emergency room nurses (in the middle of a global pandemic).

    We talk about music, work, and the fine art of balancing real life and artistic practice.

  • The Farewell

    The Farewell
    Jun 14 2020

    In this episode, I wrap up Season 1 with the most beautiful words I could find to leave you with: a story from the prodigy poet, Ocean Vuong, and a gorgeous meditation from the iconic Mary Oliver.

    And while the world aches and calls out for justice, I also leave you with one small story of my own.
