5 Q&A With Shedonist
What was the creative process like for this particular "Ask Me Why?"
“Ask Me Why” was recorded in lead singer Jasmin Toubi's home in Nashville TN. It was really fun being able to record at home in a space where creativity feels safe and we had the freedom to experiment with different microphones and placements.
What did you enjoy most about making "Ask Me Why?"
The vocals were my favorite part to record, we did everything in my roommate's closet!
How does "Ask Me Why" fit into your overall artistic vision and what can listeners expect from you in the future?
This is definitely one of the slower, more brooding and moody songs of ours. It builds into heavier guitars as it progresses, but I loved being able to do some more sultry vocals.
How did your band members initially come together?
We came together in Los Angeles after our first drummer quit and I was wandering around shows asking if anyone knew any drummers!
What do you enjoy most about performing live and connecting with your audience?
Every performance is unique in that it can never be replicated. Everyone in the audience is part of a moment in time and experiencing it together, which makes it feel really special.
