I don’t rap about money and bitches.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He rolls his eyes at his past self: “It’s like, ‘OK, come on, bro.’ But now it’s just like, I like being honest. And I think people appreciate that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Cope’s live shows, he’s not afraid to bring that same earnestness to the stage. His demeanor between songs tends to be jovial and charismatic; he articulates angry lyrics with a near-yelling intensity, then suddenly pivots into soft-spoken reflection. The display of raw emotion leaves people enthralled and slightly off balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cope doesn’t overthink it. “I usually read comics before I perform,” he says. “I will literally be reading up until one minute before I go on stage sometimes, and I just go up and I’m like, ‘All right, let’s do it.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe style=\"border-radius:12px\" src=\"https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/24Gjglko2NP3ra4hlIZXeC?utm_source=generator\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cope entered hip-hop as somewhat of an outsider, but his eclectic influences have proven to be a strength. As a high school student in Hayward, he played guitar and listened to Green Day, Weezer and Sum 41. It was during this era that he connected with his classmate Marquito, who grew up playing mariachi music and now floats comfortably between jazz, hip-hop, R&B and even reggaeton. Today, the friends, who both rock long hair and beat-up sneakers, vibe on a shared genre-agnostic frequency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like we just complement each other energetically inside and outside of music,” Marquito says. “We hang out, we talk shit, we laugh.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13955077\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13955077\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/240327-CASEY-COPE-KSM-16-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Casey Cope and Marquito at Studio Q in Berkeley on Mar. 27, 2024. \u003ccite>(Kathryn Styer Martínez/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>During our interview at Studio Q, the DIY West Berkeley recording space spearheaded by their collaborator Big Soda, Cope and Marquito recount the \u003ci>Qamp III\u003c/i> sessions, which had configurations of rappers, singers, beatmakers and instrumentalists (including a tuba player) split up among the studio’s three rooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Free-flowing collabs led to unexpected output, including Stoni and Qing Qi rapping shit-talking bars over a skittering jazz instrumental, instead of the hyphy-adjacent slaps they typically go for.

Rittybo’s rich vocals shine on \u003ci>Qamp III\u003c/i>’s single, “You Already Know,” which has a g-funk bass line that brings to mind glossy Cutlasses and pool tables in old-school dive bars.

And some may not know that you recorded some of your first album \u003ci>The Way It Is\u003c/i> in Sausalito back in the ’80s. What stands out to you when you look back at that time, recording out here?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Bruce Hornsby:\u003c/b> The group Journey was working next to us, and so somehow we got it into our heads to start phone pranking Journey. So I did that and called in to speak to [Journey lead guitarist] Neal Schon. I was a young man trying to get an audition for the group, that I referred to as “The Journeys.” “Hi, I’m trying to get an audition with The Journeys, is this Neal Schons?” I was using the pseudonym Melvin “Mooney” Minkins after a guy I went to high school with. So this just went on and on. So much so that in the credits for Journey’s record \u003ci>Raised on Radio\u003c/i>, there’s a special thanks to Melvin Minkins, and that’s why. I was phone pranking their manager, Herbie Herbert. They found out about it, and then they liked it. They got such a kick out of it, they had me phone pranking other people, friends of theirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I used to phone prank [Jerry] Garcia for that matter, in the later years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Speaking of Jerry Garcia and Bay Area memories, you toured with The Grateful Dead in the early ’90s, playing keyboards for over 100 shows. What are some of your favorite memories playing with them?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, there are so many. Touring through Europe. Just the origin — the first gigs I did with them, I basically came in off the street and started winging it with them with, no rehearsal, at Madison Square Garden. That was crazy. And I used to play in my older brother’s Grateful Dead cover band in Charlottesville, Virginia. The name of the band was Bobby Hi-Test and the Octane Kids. And my brother is Bobby Hornsby. So imagine all those people who used to hang around with us, going to these great alcohol and hippie frat parties at University of Virginia playing Dead covers. Imagine them 16 years later, coming to Madison Square Garden to watch me start playing with that band. It was just an incomparable experience. Truly transcendent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTu5BmFFt00\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Let’s talk about what brings you to the Bay Area this time around – your new album \u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i>, with the ensemble yMusic. What sparked this album? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the fall of 2019, they called me up and asked me if I would do a little five-song tour with them. Then Rob [Moose of yMusic] asked if I’d be interested in writing a song with him that we could play as our encore every night. So I said, “Sure, send me a track.” They sent me this track and I wrote a song called “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l--wZYW0Au0\">Deep Sea Vents\u003c/a>.” \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We had a great time playing that at our five concerts. And after the last one we said, “hey, let’s keep doing this, let’s keep writing.” \u003c/span>Then a week later, the COVID shutdown occurred. In the fall, we reconvened on the phone. They would send me a track every two months or so. And we just kept on going. I was reading \u003ci>Moby Dick\u003c/i> at the time. And all of a sudden they sent me this track that sounded like the book. So I decided to channel Herman Melville and write this song “The Wild Whaling Life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vu5cF3YhFg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And they sent me another song — their working title was “Duck Hunt.” It starts off with these sort of quacking sounding clarinets and trumpet. I thought, “Well, okay, I’m going to write about the platypus.” Sort of taking my cue from John Lennon’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ws5klxbI87I\">I Am the Walrus\u003c/a>.” So I wrote the song “\u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/IQIorHlOLC0?feature=shared\">Platypus Wow\u003c/a>” over their track. These three songs together signaled very clearly that this record really should have a running theme. And so I decided every song that I write from here on out will be ocean-related or aquatic-related.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’re known for taking your music in all kinds of directions. I scanned some of the YouTube comments for your \u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i> album tracks and one fan mentioned loving your music because you’re true to yourself and not a style. Does that resonate? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, now you’re being very kind to read the nice comments because there are always naysayers — people who would like me to make the same record stylistically for my entire life. I’m a bit of a restless soul. I’m an old music school nerd and I love so many different types of music. And I’ve just ended up being reached out to by so many people from so many disparate areas of musical life. So consequently, I’ve made bluegrass records \u003ca href=\"https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kklijAlIjpugeonmOdV-MPNXh9aQXYn3Y\">with Ricky Skaggs\u003c/a>. I’ve made jazz records \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnY2NOGdNfg\">with Jack DeJohnette and Christian McBride\u003c/a>, just on and on. And [\u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i>] is just another version of all that. Another area to mine and to explore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqXDZgxdhyQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m always looking for new inspiration. Thirty-nine years into this crazy career, the page is pretty filled in and I don’t like to repeat myself. So I’m interested in the new. I’m interested in the modern. Mind you, I say that, but I also tend to always write a couple of songs that come from the folk world. And that folk world was being mined early on in my music — \u003ci>The Way It Is\u003c/i> record, \u003ci>Scenes from the Southside\u003c/i> record — and I’ve kept on doing that. So hopefully there’s always something for the old-time listener who really isn’t interested in much else than that. But yes, that’s been my life, and it’s been extremely fulfilling. But you were very kind to not cite some of the nasty ones because I always get them.

This is a ‘Beyoncé’ album.” And so I feel like with you – you have a trend as well of being able to say, you know, this isn’t a “this or that” album, this is a Bruce Hornsby album. And where I go, is where I go.\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, okay. So I guess we’re kindred spirits, Beyoncé and I [laughter]. I’ll take it, because, of course, she’s absolutely fantastic.

Those clear, cascading notes on “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOeKidp-iWo\">The Way It Is\u003c/a>,” off the 1986 album of the same name, became a launching pad for a storied career that has traversed genres and had him working with a wide range of collaborations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those collaborations include some Bay Area ties — like playing with The Grateful Dead in the early ’90s, putting his piano on iconic tracks like Bonnie Raitt’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW9Cu6GYqxo\">I Can’t Make You Love Me\u003c/a>,” and being sampled by Tupac for one of the rapper’s biggest songs, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXvBjCO19QY\">Changes\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hornsby’s latest project is a new water-themed album, \u003ca href=\"https://www.brucehornsby.com/deep-sea-vents\">\u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i>\u003c/a>, in collaboration with the sextet \u003ca href=\"https://www.ymusicensemble.com/\">yMusic\u003c/a>.

And some may not know that you recorded some of your first album \u003ci>The Way It Is\u003c/i> in Sausalito back in the ’80s. What stands out to you when you look back at that time, recording out here?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Bruce Hornsby:\u003c/b> The group Journey was working next to us, and so somehow we got it into our heads to start phone pranking Journey. So I did that and called in to speak to [Journey lead guitarist] Neal Schon. I was a young man trying to get an audition for the group, that I referred to as “The Journeys.” “Hi, I’m trying to get an audition with The Journeys, is this Neal Schons?” I was using the pseudonym Melvin “Mooney” Minkins after a guy I went to high school with. So this just went on and on. So much so that in the credits for Journey’s record \u003ci>Raised on Radio\u003c/i>, there’s a special thanks to Melvin Minkins, and that’s why. I was phone pranking their manager, Herbie Herbert. They found out about it, and then they liked it. They got such a kick out of it, they had me phone pranking other people, friends of theirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I used to phone prank [Jerry] Garcia for that matter, in the later years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Speaking of Jerry Garcia and Bay Area memories, you toured with The Grateful Dead in the early ’90s, playing keyboards for over 100 shows. What are some of your favorite memories playing with them?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, there are so many. Touring through Europe. Just the origin — the first gigs I did with them, I basically came in off the street and started winging it with them with, no rehearsal, at Madison Square Garden. That was crazy. And I used to play in my older brother’s Grateful Dead cover band in Charlottesville, Virginia. The name of the band was Bobby Hi-Test and the Octane Kids. And my brother is Bobby Hornsby. So imagine all those people who used to hang around with us, going to these great alcohol and hippie frat parties at University of Virginia playing Dead covers. Imagine them 16 years later, coming to Madison Square Garden to watch me start playing with that band. It was just an incomparable experience. Truly transcendent.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/LTu5BmFFt00'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/LTu5BmFFt00'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cb>Let’s talk about what brings you to the Bay Area this time around – your new album \u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i>, with the ensemble yMusic. What sparked this album? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the fall of 2019, they called me up and asked me if I would do a little five-song tour with them. Then Rob [Moose of yMusic] asked if I’d be interested in writing a song with him that we could play as our encore every night. So I said, “Sure, send me a track.” They sent me this track and I wrote a song called “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l--wZYW0Au0\">Deep Sea Vents\u003c/a>.” \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We had a great time playing that at our five concerts. And after the last one we said, “hey, let’s keep doing this, let’s keep writing.” \u003c/span>Then a week later, the COVID shutdown occurred. In the fall, we reconvened on the phone. They would send me a track every two months or so. And we just kept on going. I was reading \u003ci>Moby Dick\u003c/i> at the time. And all of a sudden they sent me this track that sounded like the book. So I decided to channel Herman Melville and write this song “The Wild Whaling Life.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/4vu5cF3YhFg'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/4vu5cF3YhFg'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>And they sent me another song — their working title was “Duck Hunt.” It starts off with these sort of quacking sounding clarinets and trumpet. I thought, “Well, okay, I’m going to write about the platypus.” Sort of taking my cue from John Lennon’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ws5klxbI87I\">I Am the Walrus\u003c/a>.” So I wrote the song “\u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/IQIorHlOLC0?feature=shared\">Platypus Wow\u003c/a>” over their track. These three songs together signaled very clearly that this record really should have a running theme. And so I decided every song that I write from here on out will be ocean-related or aquatic-related.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’re known for taking your music in all kinds of directions. I scanned some of the YouTube comments for your \u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i> album tracks and one fan mentioned loving your music because you’re true to yourself and not a style. Does that resonate? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, now you’re being very kind to read the nice comments because there are always naysayers — people who would like me to make the same record stylistically for my entire life. I’m a bit of a restless soul. I’m an old music school nerd and I love so many different types of music. And I’ve just ended up being reached out to by so many people from so many disparate areas of musical life. So consequently, I’ve made bluegrass records \u003ca href=\"https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kklijAlIjpugeonmOdV-MPNXh9aQXYn3Y\">with Ricky Skaggs\u003c/a>. I’ve made jazz records \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnY2NOGdNfg\">with Jack DeJohnette and Christian McBride\u003c/a>, just on and on. And [\u003ci>Deep Sea Vents\u003c/i>] is just another version of all that. Another area to mine and to explore.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/hqXDZgxdhyQ'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/hqXDZgxdhyQ'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>I’m always looking for new inspiration. Thirty-nine years into this crazy career, the page is pretty filled in and I don’t like to repeat myself. So I’m interested in the new. I’m interested in the modern. Mind you, I say that, but I also tend to always write a couple of songs that come from the folk world. And that folk world was being mined early on in my music — \u003ci>The Way It Is\u003c/i> record, \u003ci>Scenes from the Southside\u003c/i> record — and I’ve kept on doing that. So hopefully there’s always something for the old-time listener who really isn’t interested in much else than that. But yes, that’s been my life, and it’s been extremely fulfilling.

You are going to get some indigenous perspective and sounds rooted in that experience.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That spiritual essence will be in full effect when the two bilingual artists synergize on Valencia Street later this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/a.chal/?hl=en\">A.CHAL\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/thecoldmedina/\">Cold Medina\u003c/a> will be performing at The Chapel (777 Valencia St., SF) on Thurs.

The event officially debuted that same year at Dolores Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As someone born and raised in San Jose’s East Side and downtown neighborhoods, Cardamon realized the hometown she loved didn’t have any equivalent. “Girl, you could do it,” Cardamon recalls Equipto telling her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s how San Jose Day, formerly known as 408 Day, was born, with its first iteration held downtown in 2017. It gained traction and continued annually until 2020, when the event was shut down by the pandemic. It made its return in 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j793qAWhjqA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the event is back and bigger than ever. Feeling reinvigorated, Cardamon believes San Jose is primed for a cultural renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll be honest, I don’t have a big interest in going to San Francisco and Oakland,” Cardamon says. “San Jose has so much going on. It’s very creative, and our culture has blossomed and grown in a way where people are collaborative and respectful of each other’s lanes. We survive in one of the toughest cities to make a living, and we hustle for each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 6th Annual San Jose Day will include live music, food vendors, Aztec and folklórico dancers, educational awareness groups, gallery artists and more. Among them, Cardamon is especially proud of the \u003ca href=\"https://siliconvalleydownsyndromenetwork.wildapricot.org/\">Silicon Valley Down Syndrome Network\u003c/a>, which is hosting a Japanese Taiko performance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m excited about that; I’ve never seen a festival host a special needs group of youth doing a performance,” says Cardamon. “And everyone’s getting paid. That’s special to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13954723\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1600px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13954723\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize.jpg\" alt=\"a musical performer is on stage in front of a large audience in San Jose\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize.jpg 1600w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/03/SJD2023_FullSet-340_websize-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A San Jose performer captivates the crowd during San Jose Day in 2023. \u003ccite>(Alex Knowbody)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Cardamon is a San Jose ride-or-die advocate. Having experienced housing insecurity during the 2008 recession in the city as a youth, she’s intimately familiar with the region’s struggles and the often inaccessible pathways for artists to thrive. That’s especially true in Silicon Valley, where tech innovation frequently eclipses the work of art innovators — both economically and culturally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Cardamon herself, the event has roamed around San Jose’s diverse communities. It’s been held in the Gordon Biersch lot in downtown San Jose as well as the famed Mexican Heritage Plaza on Alum Rock Avenue. On April 6, \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/empire7studios/?hl=en\">Empire Seven Studios\u003c/a> in Japantown — \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13952476/san-jose-japantown-photo-night-cukui\">which has a bubbling creative scene\u003c/a> — hosts this year’s edition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having brought in more than 7,500 attendees last year, Cardamon feels a surging momentum in her city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9cSIPpBz9Q\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The energy was vividly euphoric and positive, so much love,” says Cardamon of last year’s festivities. “It was a pivotal moment for our event to know, and people were like ‘Oh shit, we’ve never heard of it before.’ We had over 98 artists involved. That made me realize I could do this. I want to give more of myself to this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cardamon is in the process of finalizing her 501(c)(3) status as a nonprofit, and has also developed an arts and culture board to review applications for participating artists, vendors and community members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though not quite yet at the level of recognition as 415 Day or 510 Day, San Jose Day — in the hub of the Bay Area’s most populous county — is bound to keep growing. And as it does, Cardamon will be at the center, waving her San Jose flag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003ca href=\"https://www.sanjoseday.org/sjd2024\">San Jose Day\u003c/a> takes place on Saturday, April 6, from noon–6 p.m., at 525 N. 7th St., San Jose.

Feeling reinvigorated, Cardamon believes San Jose is primed for a cultural renaissance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll be honest, I don’t have a big interest in going to San Francisco and Oakland,” Cardamon says. “San Jose has so much going on. It’s very creative, and our culture has blossomed and grown in a way where people are collaborative and respectful of each other’s lanes. We survive in one of the toughest cities to make a living, and we hustle for each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 6th Annual San Jose Day will include live music, food vendors, Aztec and folklórico dancers, educational awareness groups, gallery artists and more. Among them, Cardamon is especially proud of the \u003ca href=\"https://siliconvalleydownsyndromenetwork.wildapricot.org/\">Silicon Valley Down Syndrome Network\u003c/a>, which is hosting a Japanese Taiko performance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m excited about that; I’ve never seen a festival host a special needs group of youth doing a performance,” says Cardamon. “And everyone’s getting paid.

Having experienced housing insecurity during the 2008 recession in the city as a youth, she’s intimately familiar with the region’s struggles and the often inaccessible pathways for artists to thrive. That’s especially true in Silicon Valley, where tech innovation frequently eclipses the work of art innovators — both economically and culturally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Cardamon herself, the event has roamed around San Jose’s diverse communities. It’s been held in the Gordon Biersch lot in downtown San Jose as well as the famed Mexican Heritage Plaza on Alum Rock Avenue.

That made me realize I could do this. I want to give more of myself to this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cardamon is in the process of finalizing her 501(c)(3) status as a nonprofit, and has also developed an arts and culture board to review applications for participating artists, vendors and community members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though not quite yet at the level of recognition as 415 Day or 510 Day, San Jose Day — in the hub of the Bay Area’s most populous county — is bound to keep growing.

Of course, we devoured it as soon as it dropped. Hours after its release, here are some first impressions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycwtqqhV6UE\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>This Ain’t Country\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>So yeah, \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/C4s6Zr7rlwA/\">Beyoncé didn’t lie\u003c/a>: this ain’t a country album. Beyoncé is better at \u003cem>telegraphing\u003c/em> country music than encapsulating it, anyway. On “Texas Hold ‘Em,” the signifiers are off. A country song wouldn’t need to specify you’re headed to a dive bar, since every bar in a country song is a dive bar, and you certainly wouldn’t need to say you “always thought” it was “nice.” That’s the girl in \u003cem>Ghost World\u003c/em> who thinks the local diner is “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxlccAn4UjI\">sooo… you know… \u003cem>funky\u003c/em>!\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charlie Parker, the jazz saxophonist, was once asked why he liked listening to country radio; “The stories,” he replied, “listen to the stories.” Are there story songs on \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em>? Not many. Are there country songs, even? Not many. But what’s there is something even bigger and broader: Americana and indie-ish songs, a rap song, an opera aria, a whole lotta other stuff like Jersey Club and Son House and the Beach Boys, all in a big, ambitious swirling mix, greater than the sum of its parts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, Beyoncé already wrote a great country song years ago. It has a car, a box of old stuff, and a cheating boyfriend. It’s called “Irreplaceable.”—\u003cem>Gabe Meline\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxNMvZ5BhSU\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How They Made Me: Houston Texas, Baby\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In reality, Beyoncé never stopped being country — from the autobiographical \u003cem>Lemonade\u003c/em> track “Daddy Lessons,” which she performed at the 2016 Country Music Awards with the Chicks, to the Southern ancestry of “Formation,” her Creole roots have always been essential to her musical identity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Spaghettii” establishes this idea at the center of the album. The track opens with a clip of \u003ca href=\"https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/linda-martel-color-me-country/\">Linda Martell\u003c/a>, who many credit as the first commercially successful Black female artist in country music. “Genres are a funny little concept,” she says. “In theory, they have a simple definition that’s easy to understand, but in practice, well, some may feel confined.” Beyoncé then raps over a Brazilian funk sample: “They call me the captain, the catwalk assassin / When they know it’s slappin’, then here come the yappin’,” referring to her haute couture getups and this album’s inevitable discourse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martell returns to introduce “Ya Ya”: “This particular tune stretches across a range of genres, and that’s what makes it a unique listening experience.” That may be the best description of \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em> – a journey that Beyoncé takes the listener on, beyond the realm of pop, R&B and country.\u003cem>—Ugur Dursun\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GVDWWi3i-E\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Sometimes tha Side Chick Ain’t Even a Chick, \u003ca href=\"https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GHSa0ZbbUAAxs3Q?format=jpg&name=small\">It’s the Gorgeous and Proud Nation of Ireland\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Ireland is having a hot streak: Cillian Murphy won an Oscar, the people’s princess Ayo Edebiri and normal person Paul Mescal \u003ca href=\"https://www.eonline.com/news/1397582/why-this-photo-of-paul-mescal-and-ayo-edebiri-has-the-internet-buzzing\">maybe or maybe not announced a relationship\u003c/a> and/or \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/emily-henry-ayo-edebiri-paul-mescal-rumor-beach-read-casting-1235951258/\">a movie\u003c/a> on St. Patrick’s Day, Hozier released a new song, and now Beyonce’s “Riiverdance.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/sweatpantspapi/status/1773577746020495687\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyways. The reason why I was so taken by \u003cem>Renaissance\u003c/em> – and why listening to \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em> is such a journey – is because I’m listening to years and years of music references, collaborations, genres and history woven together in something so sharp, thoughtful and rich. I just can’t wait to read essays about every production choice and homage in this album – every detail, every lyric about the life of a country singer, every little clack of her nails. I love learning! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aaah, these sweeping, choir-sounding cinematic qualities of the album, like “Ameriican Requiem!” Damn, it’s such a cool, excellent piece of work. (It’s why I’m just going to ignore “Jolene” real hard (sorry sorry sorry sorry.))\u003cem>—Nisa Khan\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4xrblI8Tvw\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Beyoncé as Guardian and ‘Protector’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>I wasn’t sure what to expect after the foot-stomping radio single “Texas Hold ’Em,” but wow — the harmonies. From opening track “Ameriican Requiem” and throughout \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em>, Beyoncé envelops us in wispy layers of her vocals, which feel as expansive as looking up at a night sky somewhere down a winding back road. Much like how I was dazzled by the stripped-down opening of her Renaissance tour, I love when Beyoncé reminds us that, beyond her maximalist showmanship, she’s built this empire because she can really \u003ci>sing\u003c/i>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even at 27 tracks, \u003ci>Cowboy Carter\u003c/i> doesn’t feel bloated. Amid the wide range of styles, and the nods to both mainstream country icons and unsung heroes, a new theme reveals itself: Beyoncé tapping into her strength as a defender and guardian of the vulnerable. She embodies that beautifully on “Protector,” a delicately strummed ballad dedicated to her children. On “Daughter,” she shows the aggressive side of that same energy: “If you cross me, I’m just like my father / I am colder than titanic waters.” In past work, Beyoncé has often embodied an archetypal femininity of being gazed upon and wanted. It’s cool seeing her in the driver’s seat here, shotgun in her lap.\u003cem>—Nastia Voynovskaya\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9qjKyMk9iI\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Fresno Family Station Wagon\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyoncé and I go way back to when I had no bills. Whenever my Christian parents went shopping, I’d sit in the family station wagon and turn the radio dial past Central Valley country stations to B95, Fresno’s hip-hop hits powerhouse. \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em> comes full circle for me. So many Black and brown Americans live in rural areas inundated by white country radio hits, and \u003cem>maybe\u003c/em> a single hip-hop station. Beyoncé links the two in this album. The dreamy wails of “Ameriican Requiem,” the backseat road trip feel of “Bodyguard,” the operatic tones of “Daughter,” the reclaiming of “Jolene” — I walked San Francisco’s meandering avenues, listening last night and feeling like I was back in my parent’s rusted silver car, flipping through the stations. What lingers is the spaghetti Beyoncé’s thrown at the wall: a fun genre-bending concept where she isn’t afraid to show her scars.—\u003cem>Ezra David Romero\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Beyoncé is better at \u003cem>telegraphing\u003c/em> country music than encapsulating it, anyway. On “Texas Hold ‘Em,” the signifiers are off. A country song wouldn’t need to specify you’re headed to a dive bar, since every bar in a country song is a dive bar, and you certainly wouldn’t need to say you “always thought” it was “nice.” That’s the girl in \u003cem>Ghost World\u003c/em> who thinks the local diner is “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxlccAn4UjI\">sooo… you know… \u003cem>funky\u003c/em>!\u003c/a>”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charlie Parker, the jazz saxophonist, was once asked why he liked listening to country radio; “The stories,” he replied, “listen to the stories.” Are there story songs on \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em>?

But what’s there is something even bigger and broader: Americana and indie-ish songs, a rap song, an opera aria, a whole lotta other stuff like Jersey Club and Son House and the Beach Boys, all in a big, ambitious swirling mix, greater than the sum of its parts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, Beyoncé already wrote a great country song years ago.

The reason why I was so taken by \u003cem>Renaissance\u003c/em> – and why listening to \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em> is such a journey – is because I’m listening to years and years of music references, collaborations, genres and history woven together in something so sharp, thoughtful and rich. I just can’t wait to read essays about every production choice and homage in this album – every detail, every lyric about the life of a country singer, every little clack of her nails. I love learning! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aaah, these sweeping, choir-sounding cinematic qualities of the album, like “Ameriican Requiem!” Damn, it’s such a cool, excellent piece of work.

From opening track “Ameriican Requiem” and throughout \u003cem>Cowboy Carter\u003c/em>, Beyoncé envelops us in wispy layers of her vocals, which feel as expansive as looking up at a night sky somewhere down a winding back road. Much like how I was dazzled by the stripped-down opening of her Renaissance tour, I love when Beyoncé reminds us that, beyond her maximalist showmanship, she’s built this empire because she can really \u003ci>sing\u003c/i>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even at 27 tracks, \u003ci>Cowboy Carter\u003c/i> doesn’t feel bloated. Amid the wide range of styles, and the nods to both mainstream country icons and unsung heroes, a new theme reveals itself: Beyoncé tapping into her strength as a defender and guardian of the vulnerable. She embodies that beautifully on “Protector,” a delicately strummed ballad dedicated to her children. On “Daughter,” she shows the aggressive side of that same energy: “If you cross me, I’m just like my father / I am colder than titanic waters.” In past work, Beyoncé has often embodied an archetypal femininity of being gazed upon and wanted. It’s cool seeing her in the driver’s seat here, shotgun in her lap.\u003cem>—Nastia Voynovskaya\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/E9qjKyMk9iI'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/E9qjKyMk9iI'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ch2>The Fresno Family Station Wagon\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

So many Black and brown Americans live in rural areas inundated by white country radio hits, and \u003cem>maybe\u003c/em> a single hip-hop station. Beyoncé links the two in this album. The dreamy wails of “Ameriican Requiem,” the backseat road trip feel of “Bodyguard,” the operatic tones of “Daughter,” the reclaiming of “Jolene” — I walked San Francisco’s meandering avenues, listening last night and feeling like I was back in my parent’s rusted silver car, flipping through the stations.

"content": "\u003cp>Lizzie Killian is an overnight success two decades in the making thanks to her new project, Teens in Trouble.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The band’s debut full-length album, \u003ca href=\"https://teensintrouble.bandcamp.com/album/whats-mine-2\">\u003cem>What’s Mine \u003c/em>\u003c/a>(out March 29 via \u003ca href=\"https://asianmanrecords.com/\">Asian Man Records\u003c/a>), graduates this Bay Area original from the background to the lead. With contemplative slacker protests in sonically punchy packages, Killian’s songwriting excels with melodic tracks that linger. From the anthemic opening single, “You Don’t Want to Mess with Me,” to the record’s finale, “I’m Not Perfect,” there’s a musical maturity that complements her own journey laid bare on the record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/EAtv3MtHmis?si=V2sxH5M-rmKC8xff\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The weird thing is I’ve just been trying to use this project as a way to dig into my authentic self or whatever, hokey stuff like that, and really trying to tune into what feels good for me,” Killian says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The approach seems to be working: Teens in Trouble recently came off a tour run supporting veteran rockers RX Bandits. “Ever since I’ve been doing that, these opportunities have been presenting themselves,” Killian reflects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Raised in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset district in a Filipino immigrant household, Killian got her first taste of D.I.Y. when she saved enough money to buy her first electric guitar. She spent her teen years waiting outside 21-and-up venues to play with the band she joined, the Filipina-led \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nunYEBLbrPQ\">Sputterdoll\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being a Filipina woman myself, it made me realize there was more than the white guy-fronted bands that I had been listening to, that we can rock just as hard,” she says. [aside postid='arts_13954914']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sputterdoll played Warped Tour’s Shiragirls stage in 2005. They played The Pound — a great rock club out of horror movie central casting on Pier 96 — with Plain White T’s before Plain White T’s churned out a national hit. Of course, rocking DNA Lounge is part of her local lore. Unfortunately, pursuing music caused her to clash with her parents. She eventually worked three jobs to support herself, all while trying to keep her music dreams alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once Killian became a certified musical veteran, she noticed her contemporaries in the Bay Area’s music scene mostly moved on or moved out. Teens in Trouble was born from a need to be independent and active, but she was twisting in the wind, and the project immediately stalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My brain was so focused on work, that I didn’t know how to write songs anymore. At least, that’s what it felt like,” she says. “There was a point in 2017 where I was like, ‘Maybe that’s it for me. I guess I’m done with music or something.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3779175158/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Killian loves to bet on herself, though, and music is her gamble of choice. So in 2022, she doubled-down, asserting herself as a songwriter and performer, launching Teens in Trouble in earnest. Killian’s D.I.Y.-ethos meshes well with the label that signed her. San Jose’s Asian Man Records is Mike Park’s long-running operation out of his mom’s South Bay garage. That support energized Lizzie to assemble musicians to fully realize Teens in Trouble under her guidance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/9NvLKmCjK30?si=Z5GzC2pYBMEjJ85i\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite moving to Raleigh, North Carolina right before the pandemic, Killian’s Bay Area network has been key to her momentum for \u003cem>What’s Mine\u003c/em>, recorded at District Recording in San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A slew of music videos with her best friend, director and cinematographer Aja Pop (another San Francisco Filipina), have amplified Teens in Trouble’s presence in the Bay and beyond. The visuals for the singles on \u003cem>What’s Mine\u003c/em> — “You Don’t Want to Mess with Me,” “Playlist” and “It’s Up To Me” — all feature Aja Pop’s quirky and dreamy creative signature, inspired by French filmmaker’s Michel Gondry’s work with The White Stripes, and bolster Teens in Trouble’s proper arrival.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was not at all surprised that [Lizzie] figured it out, and got her act together — so to speak — to make this project happen,” says Pop. “I encourage all my friends to get their act together literally and figuratively because once you got that, that’s a sign of self-love.” [aside postid='arts_13954771']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Randy Moore, a San Jose-based bassist and producer, became part of Teens in Trouble through working with Asian Man Records. In a strangers-must-be-friends scenario, Killian entrusted Moore to produce her music — his first time producing an entire album for someone other than himself. A shared love of early Weezer’s vulnerability informed their common goals. Killian’s only directive? If the song didn’t make her move, it had to be reworked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of the topics Lizzie talks about are vulnerable subjects, but instead of doing a somber overall record, guitars are big, guitars are heavy — we still like to rock out, but we still like to talk about our feelings,” Moore says. “That was the mantra going into it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rounding out the lineup are lead guitarist Mike Huguenor of San Jose, whose old band Shinobu was often found on bills with Sputterdoll, and drummer Henry Chadwick from Santa Cruz, now based in Portland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Killian, it all happened so fast — assembling a reliable team, getting onto a label, playing shows regularly again and now a full-length album. So it goes for an overnight success decades in the making.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been kind of a wild ride. In some regards, it feels like it went from zero to 100,” Killian says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/Ly3z1QG5EjM?si=cMm5Gb4FJgmJtkFx\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aja Pop adds: ”We’re Filipino-American girls living out our creative fantasies, not only in the Bay Area, but coast to coast, in places you wouldn’t expect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Lizzie’s relationship with her parents?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We get along great now. They love Teens in Trouble,” she says. “Every time I visit, my mom’s always watching the same four videos that are on YouTube right now. I’m like, ‘Mom, we have other songs too, I swear.’” [aside postid='arts_13954854']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With \u003cem>What’s Mine\u003c/em>, Killian is making music that would feel at home blasting out of an Outer Sunset garage, from a surf van at Ocean Beach or out of someone’s headphones on the N Judah train on another foggy day of hating work. It’s a cohesive, well-sequenced listen that invites an immediate replay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s kinda funny about putting music out, especially in this time where everything is so visible for people. People are watching my growth as a musician or artist through these releases,” Killian reflects, “which is both scary, but also I’m proud of the music I’m putting out and my progress.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Teens in Trouble celebrates ‘What’s Mine’ with a \u003ca href=\"https://teensintrouble.bandcamp.com/merch/whats-mine-listening-party\">virtual listening party\u003c/a> on Bandcamp on Friday, March 29, at 9.a.m.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

With contemplative slacker protests in sonically punchy packages, Killian’s songwriting excels with melodic tracks that linger. From the anthemic opening single, “You Don’t Want to Mess with Me,” to the record’s finale, “I’m Not Perfect,” there’s a musical maturity that complements her own journey laid bare on the record.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/EAtv3MtHmis'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/EAtv3MtHmis'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“The weird thing is I’ve just been trying to use this project as a way to dig into my authentic self or whatever, hokey stuff like that, and really trying to tune into what feels good for me,” Killian says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The approach seems to be working: Teens in Trouble recently came off a tour run supporting veteran rockers RX Bandits. “Ever since I’ve been doing that, these opportunities have been presenting themselves,” Killian reflects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They played The Pound — a great rock club out of horror movie central casting on Pier 96 — with Plain White T’s before Plain White T’s churned out a national hit. Of course, rocking DNA Lounge is part of her local lore. Unfortunately, pursuing music caused her to clash with her parents. She eventually worked three jobs to support herself, all while trying to keep her music dreams alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once Killian became a certified musical veteran, she noticed her contemporaries in the Bay Area’s music scene mostly moved on or moved out. Teens in Trouble was born from a need to be independent and active, but she was twisting in the wind, and the project immediately stalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My brain was so focused on work, that I didn’t know how to write songs anymore. At least, that’s what it felt like,” she says. “There was a point in 2017 where I was like, ‘Maybe that’s it for me. I guess I’m done with music or something.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3779175158/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Killian loves to bet on herself, though, and music is her gamble of choice. So in 2022, she doubled-down, asserting herself as a songwriter and performer, launching Teens in Trouble in earnest. Killian’s D.I.Y.-ethos meshes well with the label that signed her. San Jose’s Asian Man Records is Mike Park’s long-running operation out of his mom’s South Bay garage. That support energized Lizzie to assemble musicians to fully realize Teens in Trouble under her guidance.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/9NvLKmCjK30'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/9NvLKmCjK30'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Despite moving to Raleigh, North Carolina right before the pandemic, Killian’s Bay Area network has been key to her momentum for \u003cem>What’s Mine\u003c/em>, recorded at District Recording in San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A slew of music videos with her best friend, director and cinematographer Aja Pop (another San Francisco Filipina), have amplified Teens in Trouble’s presence in the Bay and beyond. The visuals for the singles on \u003cem>What’s Mine\u003c/em> — “You Don’t Want to Mess with Me,” “Playlist” and “It’s Up To Me” — all feature Aja Pop’s quirky and dreamy creative signature, inspired by French filmmaker’s Michel Gondry’s work with The White Stripes, and bolster Teens in Trouble’s proper arrival.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was not at all surprised that [Lizzie] figured it out, and got her act together — so to speak — to make this project happen,” says Pop. “I encourage all my friends to get their act together literally and figuratively because once you got that, that’s a sign of self-love.” \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In a strangers-must-be-friends scenario, Killian entrusted Moore to produce her music — his first time producing an entire album for someone other than himself. A shared love of early Weezer’s vulnerability informed their common goals. Killian’s only directive? If the song didn’t make her move, it had to be reworked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of the topics Lizzie talks about are vulnerable subjects, but instead of doing a somber overall record, guitars are big, guitars are heavy — we still like to rock out, but we still like to talk about our feelings,” Moore says. “That was the mantra going into it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rounding out the lineup are lead guitarist Mike Huguenor of San Jose, whose old band Shinobu was often found on bills with Sputterdoll, and drummer Henry Chadwick from Santa Cruz, now based in Portland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Killian, it all happened so fast — assembling a reliable team, getting onto a label, playing shows regularly again and now a full-length album. So it goes for an overnight success decades in the making.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been kind of a wild ride.
