His backstory as an actor, the breadcrumbs and rabbit holes of music, film, and art to explore that he references… also just such a respectable outlook on the craft of an artistic persona and the thought process / intentionality behind every little thing he does. Chefs kiss.

I am finishing up his (relatively) new biography -- it's tragic as expected but his entire body of work (esp "Pink Moon" which is the one everyone knows, but who cares) is extraordinary. It'll lead you down the road of discovering Davy Graham, John Renbourne, Bert Jansch, Karen Dalton, Judee Sill, Anne Briggs, etc.

a few days ago, i sat down and wrote out a specific morning routine for myself, in which the first thing i do is read an interview from The Creative Independent with a morning cup of coffee. they release a new interview every weekday, interviewing authors and artists from all over, who share their methods and creative process. i've found if i don't connect to the person they're interviewing, i can easily find one to read from their expansive collection.
today's interview was with Kevin Barnes, who heads the band of Montreal. i found everything they said to be really insightful, and there was a lot to take away from their creative process. if you have the time, i really suggest you give it a read!
before reading the interview, the only song of theirs that i knew was Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games. if you're looking for something new to listen to, you should totally give it a try!
