About this episode
Keith sits down with Jared Cortland to discuss growing up in Santa Rosa California, discovering the local scene, early music influences, the early days of Brother Bear who eventually became State Faults, all of the work that goes into developing a new band and some on-stage mess up stories. We also discuss State Fault's hiatus due to personal and creative exhaustion and the subsequent formation of Slow Bloom, the return of State Faults partially inspired by an article written by Dan Ozzi, their return LP "Clairvoyant", the band's new momentum being sidelined by the pandemic, the writing and recording of their 2024 LP "Children of the Moon" which began during lockdown in 2020, the themes behind the record, the band's creative process and more.
