173. CASSANDRA JENKINS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HER ENTIRE CAREER & RATES HER OWN RECORDS (PART 1: PLAY TILL YOU WIN)

Cassandra’s newest LP My Light, My Destroyer is challenging and accessible in equal measure, containing infinite universes of sound and creative possibility. Discograffiti sat down with her for an uninterrupted 5-hour interview about her entire recorded output. Things got deep.     Here’s just some of the many things Cassandra and I touch on in this podcast:    Her super-cool, unusual childhood that portended an inevitable future career in music; The resourceful way in which she got the money together to fund the making of her first LP, Play Till You Win; And a plethora of details surrounding the ill-fated Purple Mountains tour in which Cassandra had been hired to participate.    Listen: https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠   I support a wife and a five-year-old son with tips and Discograffiti’s Patreon as my sole sources of income.    If you’re a Cassandra Jenkins superfan like me, you’ll want THE DIRECTOR’S CUT of this episode.
