Episode Synopsis "Emma Lee Toyoda (ep. 8)"

If the history of Seattle is grunge, Emma Lee Toyoda is giving that history a twist. Calling their music "soft punk," they take on the genre with a sensitivity rooted in their own experiences. And while they might describe themselves as soft, softness isn't something they see as diluting the strength of their message, which is clear: They are who they are, and they're not taking any bullshit. We talked about their experiences performing in their teen years and carving out a home for non-binary artists in Seattle.
