10/19/2018
“You can’t think about what other people think because then you’re getting in to the level of self analysis where you’re like ‘Why do people like me?’ and I think that it’s not good to be that fundamentally insecure in the creative process.” Over the last 15 years Sam Duckworth has been making music under his own name, as Recreations and as Get Cape.

We talk about that, mental health and touring and the bands...
