Episode 245: Lollapalooza Series Part 4 featuring Cults and Chance Emerson

For this final episode from Lollapalooza, and to bring the festival series of in-person interviews to a close, I sat down on the last day with Brian Oblivion and Madeline Follin of Cults, and also had an amazing conversation with Chance Emerson. Cults’ music is both surreal and ethereal, but also grounded in down-to-earth songwriting to is striking in its simplicity and authenticity. Brian and Maddie have been at this since they were college students and now 15 years later, they’ve release their fifth full length album, To The Ghosts. They’re embarking on giant US tour and their excitement is palpable and their love for what they do is truly infectious.  Chance Emerson is an LA-based neo-folk artist who grew up in Hong Kong and went to school at Brown University, where he met his bandmates and formed his band in 2019. Chance is smart, dedicated, and truly devoted to his songwriting craft, and possesses a self-belief that is super admirable. His most recent release is entitled “Gingko.”These are amazing conversations!!  For more information on Roadcase: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  [email protected] theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
