Description

In this episode, I hang out with Laney Esper. Laney is a singer, songwriter, guitar muser, writer, and jumper-a-rounder. She likes to connect her songs to the simpler things in nature like roly-polys and being a farm cat. Her childlike sense of curiosity keeps her awareness open, not judging things as she observes them. We talk about the joys of recess and riding bikes with your friends. The instant nostalgia in the small things. She shares the importance of having the audacity to execute on your ideas and to go up to someone you don't know and make a connection. It's an open arms policy here in Nashville and opportunities can be created. Learning the importance of supporting others, but also knowing when to rest. Influences like Alex G, Pinegrove, Wilco, Jonathan Richman, The Kinks, Black Country, New Road, and Wednesday. Book influences like Cannery Row by John Steinbeck and The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating by Elisabeth Tova Bailey. Enjoy!
