Twice a month on Talking Tracks, we interview local artists about their latest drops — song by song. It’s a little bit like a curated Spotify playlist, except way more in depth, and it’s all the people who live right in our city. In each episode, you’ll get to listen to the full album or EP right alongside the artist’s inspiration behind the tracks. Now, we’re teamed up with LiveMo and Amit Sounds to bring you special, live set editions of the podcast.
Seattle true-folk band Fun Forest released their debut album, Life’s a Party and You’re Working It, on February 7, 2021. In this live episode of Talking Tracks, Dan and Fun Forest break down the meaning behind and the making of each song on the project — a six-track EP about what it’s like to work in the service industry, the benefits to and dangers of drinking, and the power of traditional folk song.
