Sam Nicholson from the Australian indie-rock band Quivers is here to discuss their brilliant Merge Records debut, Oyster Cuts, life in Tasmania and down under, an inadvertent Pavement allusion and recent encounter with Mark Ibold, how Quivers wound up on Merge and Sam’s affection for Calgary’s Chad VanGaalen, surviving cancer as a child and hanging out with Ringo Starr from the Liverpool-based band, the Beatles, covering grief, joy, telephones, technology, and more in his songs, the Wiggles and music inclusivity, when Quivers played Guelph and I wasn’t there, current and future tour dates in North America and beyond, other future plans, and much more.

All Wild Things Are Shy is Richard Laviolette’s final album and was released posthumously one year after he sought MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying) on September 5, 2023. To provide more insight about its creation and Richard’s state of mind in writing and recording these songs while struggling with Huntington’s disease and the sudden onset of accelerated, severe symptoms, I organized a discussion with his partner and collaborator sophia bartholomew, the record’s lead instrumentalist, Rich Burnett, producer Scott Merritt, and artistic advisor and You’ve Changed Records label manager, Steven Lambke. We love Richard and will never forget him.
