Jasper Sloan Yip

In our penultimate episode, Jasper explains how the COVID-19 pandemic shaped the recording of Strange Calm, followed by a hastily researched history of the Mellotron. Then, he calls up bandmates Alex and Stephanie to gauge how they feel about the album on which they do not appear. We end with an explanation for why he named a song after a poisonous flower he has neither seen nor smelled, set to an acoustic cover of Daniel Romano's song "Roya".
