Host Evie Stokes sits down with Carl Newman of The New Pornographers to talk about the music that’s moving him. The two chat about life on the road and having Michael Beach’s music recommended to him by a collaborator. Newman shares Beach’s connections to the Melbourne psych music scene and why his song “Poison Dart” grabbed him so much.

The song comes from Beach’s latest album, Big Black Plume, out now via Goner Records.
