I had a blast doing this first interview with the one the only Theo Stevens. I first of all have to give them a massive shoutout because they helped my vision become a reality by creating this podcast’s incredible cover art. We go way way back all the way to middle school and they are such a joy to talk to and get nostalgic with. We delved into their musical upbringing leading up to their realization that they do not want to pursue a performance career despite the arts being a key part of their identity, with the added complexity of how exploring their own gender and sexuality informed that decision and continues to shape their nuanced relationship with performing. We also touch on wanting more new material in pursuing diversity in the arts. Lastly, we broke down how by using non-musical objects to make music, the band Superorganism is inviting non-musicians to join the party. Hope you enjoy!
