Episode 150: In The Box

For our milestone 150th episode, Beats, Brews, and Points of View traveled to Pittsburgh for the 5th Annual Barrel & Flow Festival, where E-Man Bates and Neil Richter were on-site as official media and Na Bonsai lit up the stage with a performance. We sit down with Bonsai to discuss their highly anticipated new album, arriving September 13th, and explore the creative journey behind it. A key theme of our conversation centers on how genre labels and racial perceptions often confine artists, and why embracing freedom beyond categories is essential for authentic expression. This episode features Bonsai’s single “In the Middle” to open and closes with “Invisible”, bookending a thoughtful discussion on artistry without limits.
