This episode features Kurt Heasley, frontman and songwriter behind the great indie band from the 90’s and beyond, Lily’s. In my perspective, the ever-shifting sound of the band was a manifestation of Kurt's ever-shifting and deeply creative mind, a mind I find insightful and endearing. Lilys records were undeniably part of the soundtrack in my formative years, and as I went on to be a part of the Philly music scene, the band I was in (Aspera ad Astra) released a split EP with Lilys and played several shows with them as well. Good memories. 

We talk about the mechanics of Lilys, people who worked with Kurt, personal growth in relationships and health, among many other things. You will get to know Kurt from his formative years in school systems that literally couldn't handle his talents, mind, affinities. You’ll also hear about Kurt‘s most recent work creating music for the network television show, Lodge 49. This is one of my favorite conversations on Ambients thus far, and I think you’re gonna love it as well. Welcome to Kurt's vast mind.

Find "In the Presence of Nothing", "A Brief History of Amazing Letdowns", "Eccsame the Photon Band", "Better Can't Make Your Life Better" and more anywhere you buy digital downloads. I recommend the vinyl versions of these albums as well.
