Ep. 56 - Sophia Nadia aka Cold Beaches
Do you enjoy on-demand cat meowing, angry amps catching on fire, and dead-ringer Jersey accents? Duuuuuuh. In this barn-burning episode with singer, songwriter, guitarist, and all-around excellent human Sophia Nadia from Cold Beaches, we’ve got you covered fam. Our newest bud talks us through her history in music, acting as a cross-country band leader, seeking inspiration and songwriting during the global pandemic, and cloning yourself to make the ultimate band. It wouldn’t be Gearbuds without the nerdery so we also made sure to talk about her gorgeous Gibson SG and cranky Peavey amp, as well as The Doors, Chicago punk, Universal Audio updates, the Moog Subharmonicon, Balthazar Amps demos, and the Quebe Sisters. Preorder the new record Drifter on Bandcamp on Tuesday May 19, dropping summer 2020. Play your instrument, and drink some water.
