David Longstreth (Dirty Projectors)
This week, we're joined by artist and composer, David Longstreth of Dirty Projectors. Known for his genre-defying work and singular creative vision, David sits down with Jeremy to talk about scoring the new A24 film The Legend of Ochi and the process behind his latest album, Song of the Earth—a sweeping collection of orchestral songs that blurs the line between the classical and the contemporary. The two dive into the rhythms of fatherhood, the unexpected joy of sharing a stage with Bernie Sanders, and the simple pleasures of swimming and meditating. It's a wide-ranging, thoughtful conversation with one of music’s most curious minds.*Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying and selling your next luxury watch
