    Kee Avil - Songs of Our Lives #146

    On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Kee Avil! I really love the novel approach she took to writing, recording, and releasing her new album, “Vapor,” and was excited to talk to her about it and learn about its pros and cons. We get through all of that before diving into This Heat, PJ Harvey, Juana Molina, Mac Miller, Dolly Parton, Fugazi, and more! Note: We had some technical difficulties and lost the conversation about lyrics, but Kee’s pick was “Death to Everyone” by Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, which is an objectively excellent pick!
