Episode 165: Leanne Macomber/Dan Chamberlain

On today's show I talk to musician Leanne Macomber of Neon Indian and Ejecta. Growing up in football-loving Texas to parents who skewed more towards the athletic side of things, Leanne wanted to pursue art and music since she was a teenager. But she had to justify its practicality to her parents by being in things like the school jazz band. Since leaving the Lone Star State, she's been able to play music professionally and has toured all around the world in bands like Neon Indian and her duo Ejecta with Ford & Lopatin's Joel Ford. Ejecta's albumDominae was released last year, and it is fantastic.Check out the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, and follow me on Twitter!
