An interview series with the best musical artists of the 21st century.

  1. Tarta Relena: Woodhouse Interviews

    Tarta Relena: Woodhouse Interviews

    The voice is an instrument. The voice is the narrative. Flipping between at least four different languages, and darting across each others’ vocal ranges, Catalan duo Tarta Relena offer a confounding, exhilarating version of vocal-focused music. Drawing from Gregorian chant, autotune forays, and Drum & Bass, their newest album És pregunta, could’ve been a total mess, but Helena Ros Redon and Marta Torrella i Martínez’s strident voices serve as an awe-inspiring, unshakeable foundation. We talked to them below.

    Trust Fund: Woodhouse Interviews

    We open by discussing an Irish goodbye vs a French exit. The phraseology is different but the outcome is the same; “Leaving the Party Early.” The first song on Trust Fund’s excellent Has it Been A While? and a perfect introduction to the introspection, paradoxes, and uncertainty all coming from a core human experience: terrified of being known, and knowing that’s the only way to be loved. Trust Fund ringleader Ellis Jones’ dexterous guitar work follows him through philosophical discussions entwined with urban decay and never ending construction. It’s easy enough to agree with Nietzsche when your city is covered in scaffolding, the local housing authority swearing it’ll be done soon. But just as many revelations come in small personal moments like a holiday shattered by grief (“In the Air”) or the contradiction duet of “The Mirror.” Has it Been A While? is Trust Fund’s first album in 6 years, and its beauty and natural curiosity feel miraculous. We talked to Jones below.

    Ahmed, With Love. Woodhouse Interview

    Wrestler, rapper, world champion, pharmacist. Ahmed, With Love. might have the strangest resume of any MC alive. The Dublin-based rapper has joined a growing throng of Irish artist embracing a colorful, playful wave of hip-hop, influenced by ‘90s rap greats, but also a smattering mix of Brazilian beats, electronic silliness, and rave euphoria. We talked to him below.

  4. Sanje: Woodhouse Interviews

    Sanje: Woodhouse Interviews

    Can you have a pleasant haunting? Sanje thinks so. “You can be Casper!” he says with a laugh. The lead single from his stunning debut, De Repente Otra Vez, is “Buen Fantasma,” the story of a long lost soul following those it once loved. But Sanje doesn’t envision any Paranormal Activity shenanigans, instead, this phantom wants to dance, hug, and watch over those it was connected to. It’s a lovely thought, paired with a slamming Cumbia beat and a triumphant trombone-lead hook. Plucking influences from the warmest, most analog days of progressive-rock, Salsa flirtations, and pure pop pleasures, Sanje has crafted an impossibly self-assured debut. We talked to him below.

    Lifter: Woodhouse Interviews

    It’s autumn, and everything has changed. Band members come and go, songs mutate, the seasons shift. There’s an acceptance, both in title and general mood, for Clasping Hands with the Moribund, another entry into the U.K.’s recent salvo of excellent folk-rock. And as these prog-infused songs suggest, acceptance through art is one of the few ways to survive meteoric changes. We talked to Lifter below.

    Scott Orr: Woodhouse Interviews

    Albums are not usually conversations. Or if they are, they’re pretty one way. Not so for Scott Orr’s Miracle Body, a deeply comforting slice of jazz, new age, and sophisti-pop that melds together into one of 2024’s most welcoming records. With his fluttering falsetto Orr ushers us in, sits us down, and offers tea and conversation. We talked to him below.

  7. Chris Acker: Woodhouse Interviews

    Chris Acker: Woodhouse Interviews

    Dumbasses, gimmick peddlers, conmen coned by their own bosses dot Famous Lunch. Chris Acker isn’t depressed, he’s just disappointed. And his sighing country tunes, tasteful pedal steel and all, just need a nap. From the surprisingly pretty letdown “Shit Surprise,” to the deeply confused self-reflection “Don't You Know (Who I Think I Am),” Acker uses a rouges gallery as a mirror, a warped perspective that’s occasionally clarifying, often baffling. We talked to him below.

  8. Sangre de Muerdago: Woodhouse Interview

    Sangre de Muerdago: Woodhouse Interview

    Singing at the edge of the world. Staring into the cold Atlantic, watching the waves crash all around, and seeing only the pale blue of the horizon must be sublime. And sublime in its original meaning, something that invokes awe with a touch of terror. There are few moments that remind humans of their smallness like staring into the void of the sea. Sangre de Muerdago aims to grasp that feeling with every release. Using a fusion of traditional instruments and folk-stories from their native Galicia, the band replicates the feeling of sailors from a past time, looking out into the infinite expanse, humbled. Sangre de Muerdago’s newest, A Ilusão da Quietude, is a momentous effort, something that appears like an archeological artifact, fully formed from a world we barely know. We talked to Pablo from the group below.
