Sarah Tudzin wants to be making music as much as possible.
(She has recently logged studio time withSadie Dupuiss Sad13andPom Pom Squad.)
Now, just over a year later, the sophomore album wehavebeen waiting for is here.
She spoke to Vulture about the influences behind her freewheeling album, from theFree I.Hordeal to Sufjan Stevens.
I thought I would have a little more support for record two.
You know, I wanted them to be bigger than the last record.
I was a total amateur as a front person when we first started touring.
Making the hyperbolic version of that has always been really interesting to me.
Sufjan Stevens
Sufjan Stevens is a master record-builder, in my mind.
He has the [ideal] career, to me.
Can I get somebody to just narrate some weird story thats tangential to the song?
When it all came together, it just worked so well.
Im glad he was down to do it.
But in the meantime, its something that has my hands tied.
I just want to make as many records as possible.
I love to keep cycling through those roles, and to be able to do both is the dream.
I feel lucky every single day that I wake up and work on music.
I never wanna do that again.
Having a label imprint
Im so thrilled to be working with Hopeless on this.
They basically have given me the resources and then the reins to the carriage.
I would like to sign bands that are and are not produced by me.
I dont care anymore.
I [felt], for obvious reasons, blocked.
So it was really hard for me to wrap my brain around putting out music again.
