Minni opens up about turning real life experiences into songs, finding strength through vulnerability, navigating life as an independent artist, and creating music that carries genuine meaning. We also dive into songs including “Little Girl,” “Good N Bad,” “One Sunrise at a Time,” “Even Kings Die,” “Love That Breathes,” “Say It Again,” and her newest release, “Can’t Wait.” It is a conversation about creativity, resilience, self discovery, and learning to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start living.

DAME (Clean Version): Brian Viglione and Veronica Swift on Rock, Reinvention, and Creative Freedom

Mess.” Veronica opens up about stepping beyond the jazz world and embracing her identity as a rock front woman, while Brian reflects on what his experiences with The Dresden Dolls, Violent Femmes, Nine Inch Nails, and other projects have taught him about collaboration and creativity. It is a funny, thoughtful, and wide ranging conversation about musical freedom, creative evolution, artistic partnership, and what happens when two fearless artists decide they no longer need to fit neatly into anybody else’s box.
