- I Know I’m Funny haha is released this month on Secretly Canadian.

What music are you currently grooving to?

I’m listening to Mei Ehara a lot right now, like a lot a lot. I love her music, the instrument­ation and her melodies are so fun to me and I see myself in her sometimes. She’s definitely on repeat most of the time.

What, if push comes to shove, is your all-time favourite album? Hannah Cohen, Welcome Home, I have listened to this album so much that I get sensory nostalgia from it. Certain songs make me smell certain things from where I was or what

I was doing at the first time when I was listening to it.

What was the first record you ever bought? And where did you buy it?

Asleep At The Wheel, 10. All I remember is buying it with my family somewhere, maybe a spring break or something, when I was a kid. They were always one of my parents’ favourite bands so I guess it just got passed on to me.

Which musician, other than yourself, have you ever wanted to be? Patti Smith probably. Her mind is so beautiful and I like how she just sits and reads or writes at random places like she isn’t Patti Smith or something. That’s what I’m trying to be like.

What do you sing in the shower? My boyfriend’s songs because it’s the only time that I can do it without him hearing…

What is your favourite Saturday night record?

Soft Sounds From Another Planet by Japanese Breakfast. It’s definitely a go-to for me and always puts me in a good mood.

And your Sunday morning record? Blake Mills, Mutable Set. There’s not a song on this record that’s getting skipped. It’s my favourite album to listen to, like to really listen to… it’s so comforting and I find myself focusing on something different about the song every listen.
