Kyla Marlena is here to discuss Hold Time, her ambivalent feelings about growing up in Edmonton, what got her into music and art-making as a kid, studying cello and how the indie-rock string section explosion from earlier this century could be traced back to Nirvana, quiet/loud, heaven/hell, and other dualities that fascinate her, pondering time and existentialism, why her new record is framed by the ages “21” and “26,” bringing members of her Toronto community together to collaborate on this record, a nod to the Sega Dreamcast, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.
