Guitars loud, heart louder. Bec Lauder joins us to open the hood on her latest The Vessel—an anthemic, grunge‑meets‑classic‑rock debut built on three‑piece chemistry, fearless writing, and a visual world that turns sidewalks into stage lights. From the first sketchbooks and living‑room dances to songs written in five‑minute bursts, she maps how creativity followed her long before the band was born, and why levity matters as much as catharsis when you’re carrying heavy stories on a hook.We dig into the city as muse and foil, where Tease Me pokes fun at the gallery of urban swagger, while tracks like Without You let the guard drop. Bec explains how fashion and choreography don’t decorate the music—they extend it. Give It starts in unwashed street clothes and explodes into a fantasy of costume changes and strut, proving rock can stay raw and still dream big. She shares the long road to the record: early sessions at Clive, shifting lineups, rebuilding with an all‑woman trio, and the gutsy call to turn down a life‑changing deal to keep control. That choice shaped the sound and spirit you hear now: tight, urgent, and fully owned.There’s momentum humming under every moment—release‑party afterglow, a new booking agent, and dates with Cage the Elephant, including a hometown Philly hit. Bec also teases what’s next: daily writing, new rock fire, an experimental hip‑hop/R&B collaboration with Chris Murphy, a pulled‑back feel‑good set, and a Paris shoot with a dancer from the Paris Opera. If you love independent rock, performance‑driven visuals, and artists who build their own worlds, this one’s for you.Send us a textSupport the showlinktr.ee/colleyc
