Listen "249: Theo Katzman"
Episode Synopsis
Multi instrumentalist singer-songwriter Theo Katzman (known for his work with the funk band Vulfpeck) bought a van from a teenager in California and drove across the country, settling in the woods of Michigan where he set up a studio, started a label, and got down to the business of writing a new record. Along the way, he discovered the Wim Hof breathing and ice bathing techniques and came out with a transformed idea of "the self" and his own motivations, and decided that he wanted to make records with as few technological interventions as possible. The result of this journey is his latest record Be The Wheel which he released recently on his 10 Good Songs label. Here he talks about the process of making that record, as well as thoughts on artificial intelligence, psilocybin, social media, touring, and honesty in songwriting.
