On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Kalia Vandever! She’s got a fantastic new record, “Another View,” coming out next month Northern Spy. We talk about being drawn to the trombone, working with Mary Halvorson, repetition, dread, inspiration from Carmen Maria Machado's “In the Dream House,” unearthing narratives, and plenty more. Eventually we wind our way into sharing special music-related moments with our parents, Stevie Wonder’s ability to lift us up, Tortoise, Aretha Franklin, Little Simz, Shirley Horn, Mk.gee, and more!
