Square Zeros #8: Marta DeLeon (The Meaning Of Life, The Getter Flash)

Marta DeLeon, the dreamy frontwoman and bassist for The Meaning Of Life, has musical roots that stretch coast to coast. Long before she landed here in Brooklyn, she played cello and, occasionally, melodica in The Getter Flash, a Seattle-based outfit that carved out a spot in the Pacific Northwest indie scene in the early 2000s. In this episode, we get treated with a couple tracks from that project, plus some new stuff from The Meaning Of Life. (Songs: "She Never Screams" by The Meaning Of Life, "Weltschmerz" and "The Days Of Living Velvet" by The Getter Flash," and "Laura V." by The Meaning Of Life.
