Ep. #1064: Aquakultre

Lance Sampson from Aquakultre returns to discuss his new album 1783, the time I saw him request and receive chicken wings while performing on-stage and why his friends and family often engage in their own version of Hot Ones, how his research about the history of African Nova Scotia or Black Nova Scotia led him to write songs, why he engaged in this research initially and what he learned about his home province, his fascination with historical fractures and community-building, police and cultural erasure, archival recordings and eeriness, working with producer Erin Costelo and the sound of this record, a family singalong and the motion picture Jaws, what’s next for 1783, other future plans, and much more.
