“what’s your train track?”
Devon Again joins to share her Train Tracks, the story behind her EP 'In Order', and why the point was never the outcome but the hurting and loving and losing and finding along the way.
In this conversation, Devon shares the three songs that define where she is right now, from Hovvdy's Lake June, to HARDY's A ROCK, to her own Never Goes Away. She talks about calling her music "boy music" to give herself permission to be more honest, discovering that songwriting could work like a math equation, why she writes slowly and alone, and what it means to go on tour with Olivia Rodrigo while trying not to care about the numbers. Plus a bonus fourth track: cherry cola, her favourite song she's ever made.
