    Episode 6: Kitty

    Episode 6: Kitty

    Kitty Ray, known professionally as Kitty, became an overnight sensation in 2012, when her incredibly catchy “OK Cupid” went viral and ended up on Rolling Stone’s top 20 songs of the year list. Kitty got a manager and went on tour with Danny Brown. Then the hard part started: bouts of Imposter Syndrome, toxic relationships with more experienced musicians and the ever-present effects of Body Dysmorphia and Anorexia.

    Episode 4: Norman Brannon & Steve Pedulla

    Episode 4: Norman Brannon & Steve Pedulla

    Norman Brannon and Steve Pedulla have both played in iconic and influential guitar based bands over the last 30 years (Brannon with Texas is the Reason, Pedulla with Thursday).
    They’ve both turned to more academic pursuits (Brannon with writing and teaching, Pedulla behind the lens on News Broadcasts and Feature Length Films). But these two men have one more thing in common: they’ve both toured extensively as gay men, not yet “out” to the public or even the members of their own bands. This episode dives deep into the efficacy of band therapy, the stresses of touring while “in the closet,” and what it means to have healthy secrets.
