Violet Mayugba (Destroy Boys)

Our guest today is Violet Mayugba.

Violet is the guitarist and a founding member of the band, Destroy Boys. The group formed back in 2015 in Sacramento, California and have gone on to release three studio albums, with one more on the way - in fact, they had just finished recording it the day before this interview was recorded.

Violet is a huge Elliott Smith fan. She talks about her favourite song pick and the personal way she relates to it very openly and honestly, and we loved speaking to her.

And after the interview with Violet, we catch up with musician Dylan Rodrigue. Dylan and fellow musician Marcus Buser recently hosted an Elliott Smith tribute show in Los Angeles. It featured former podcast guests Johanna Samuels, Aaron Embry and Shannon Lay, and we discuss how the show went as well as Dylan's favourite song ES song.

Hope you enjoy it!
