Devendra Banhart Talks To NPR’s All Things Considered
At the age of 9, Devendra Banhart terrified his family with the first song he wrote, entitled “We’re All Gonna Die.” This is but one of the revelations that the peculiar freak-folk pioneer reveals in a new interview with NPR‘s All Things Considered. The interview aired on October 15, and it can now be streamed online here.
In the interview, Banhart “describes [new LP Ape In Pink Marble] as ‘gentler’ than his previous work, and he says it reflects a change in his attitude toward music.” The album, his first since the CMJ chart topping Mala in 2013, moved up to #9 at CMJ Radio 200 — get it started at your station!
