You can also listen to this episode on your streaming platform of choice via Wavve.
Episode 154 of Look At My Records features an interview with Brooklyn musician Drew Citron! For this episode, Deanna Dilandro joins Tom as co-host for an extensive chat with Drew on the heels of the release of her debut solo effort, Free Now. Over the last decade and change, Drew has remained a constant force in the New York City music scene, fronting the critically acclaimed Beverly, playing bass in the post-punk quartet Public Practice, and as a touring member of both The Pains of Being Pure At Heart and Frankie Rose & The Outs. On Free Now, Citron begins a new chapter in her musical story, as she turns the page on Beverly and plots a new course forward by experimenting with a more intimate, folk-pop inspired sound. During our interview, we chatted about her formative musical experiences in both her hometown of San Francisco and her adopted home of New York City, what it was like writing Free Now on the Northern Coast of California, how she adapted to life under quarantine, and a whole lot more. This episode features records from Sam Evian, Micheal Rault, Marshall Crenshaw, Beverly, The Mantles, and more!
Free Now is available on limited edition vinyl via Park The Van. You can purchase a copy on Bandcamp. You can also stream the record on your platform of choice. Keep up with Drew by following her on Instagram and liking her on Facebook!
