Legal Ghost | Humanity, Sex, Death & Why We Make Art with Gareth Liddiard

Lo Carmen & singer songwriter/musician Gareth Liddiard (Tropical Fuck Storm, The Drones, Springtime, solo and other projects) get loose and go deep on making music out of sex and death, people who change your life with music, how songs know things, how existence is a wild thing, dreams, loss, species-centric love, horrible jobs, humanity, immortality and why we make art. Warning: a lot of swearing in this one, and subjects that may be upsetting. Follow Gaz & TFS on Instagram to learn more Excerpts from sound recordings used with permission.
