Alex and Karen chat with musician Amanda Sum all about the experience of making her debut album New Age Attitudes, from it’s initial conception all the way to creating a music video that was eventually nominated for a Juno and won the SXSW Music Video Jury Award. They talk about the different messages she tries to convey in her work; the importance of representation; and why you should always be asking yourself “why does this matter?”. Amanda also opens up about the loss of a dear friend and collaborator, and the ways that she’s used creativity to process the complex emotions of grief.
