ANDIE (ANDIE and the Bandits) joins us to talk about the record that first made her believe she could be a songwriter, Corinne Bailey Rae’s 2006 self-titled album. We talk about growing up with the CD on a pink Walkman, the impact of vocal harmonies, and how songs like “Till It Happens to You” still hit just as hard today. ANDIE reflects on her journey as a queer and polyamorous artist navigating heartbreak, live performance, and the reality of recording with a DIY team. A nostalgic and honest conversation about influence, emotion, and turning personal stories into something beautiful.
