Stereo Embers The Podcast 0420: Melanie Radford (Built To Spill, Blood Lemon)

"High Tide" Comprised of three classically-trained musicians and friends from Boise, Idaho, Blood Lemon is an energetic power trio that was formed in 2018. Their new EP Petit Deaths finds the band sounding as confident as ever. Recorded in Joshua Tree, the mysteries of the desert proved to be an inspiring environment and as a result, Petit Deaths races away with feral grooves, undulating rhythms and pure sonic muscle. The basslines of Melanie Radford, (who also plays in Built To Spill) soar with sonorous menace and the five numbers on Petit Deaths tackle romance, politics and despair. The whipping power of this EP make it the perfect way to start the new year: with sheer force. Radford chats about being in two bands, an influential teacher and how to take a note. www.bloodlemonmusic.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.bombshellradio.com www.alexgreenbooks.com Stereo Embers Instagram: @emberspodcast Bluesky: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com
