In this episode, Black Guy Fawkes talks about the response to new album Intrusive Lullabies, the labels of singer-songwriter versus punk versus folk versus protest songs, working through writers block, intimacy and connection, the importance of sequencing the songs and how they flow into each other, messaging for a certain audience. and the potential for turning off certain listeners. Plus, the fallout from getting dropped from a tour, the importance of mental health and a support system, the impact of social media and the dangers of sharing too much, and separating the art from the artist.
