this is fun and awkward in exactly the way I'd hoped. I love it
Thanks Kevin! That's exactly what I strive for- fun and awkward
I bought Struts and Shocks the week I moved to Allston... It is a fantastic album.
Damn this is the type of vid I really hoped for :)
I'm so glad to hear that, Das! :)
Thank you. Great video.
I was in my early 20s that first EP came out and used to see them in Boston constantly. I’m sure I’m in the audience of some of these. I remember a really weird show soon after Seanna left and they were having an argument on stage. It was super confusing and uncomfortable.
Their music meant so much to me. Especially “Upstairs” from What to do about them.
Yeah, I think I was at that same gig...long ago. I don't think the band recovered its equilibrium until Rob (😥) and Deborah joined.
crazy that im a super fan of this band since i discovered them on spotify.
Awesome! Seana is one of my most favorite people on the planet. I'm very proud and grateful to have worked with her on a lot of her most recent recording projects. I can't overstate how talented she is and how great of a person she is. Great interview. Well-deserved.
Great interview, I've been into the swirlies going back to some of their first shows. It was super fun watching them grow as a band. Thanks for this. I think I'll go listen to "House of Pancakes" now (it's one of my favorite songs as well)
Thank you ID. Unknown! Man, it would be great to see them live one day! I might go listen to House of Pancakes now myself!
Great interview; liked and subscribed!
I always loved 'Two Girls Kissing' and 'Sunn', the latter being a real standout for me. I also recall having 'Scherzo Allegro' as a ringtone at one point! This channel is fantastic, thanks for all the great content.
Thanks for that ringtone inspiration! :D
She didn't do the vocals on that album
@@keegancrocker4587 Yeah, on _"They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days ..."_ album the singer is Christina Files.
To me Seana and Christina were always equally great with the _Swirlies._
welcome back!! great video!
Thank you Daniel! I appreciate your support 💮
brilliant, that's what I was looking for!!
also I would like to know more about Damon and his journey as a guitarist and a person.
thank you so much!
Saw them just tonight in East Hempstead in MASS. She’s just as cute to see, the sound guy needed to turn her vocals up but they sounded the same
9:34 I wish you would have also asked Seana about her thoughts on the term "chimp rock."
yeah I wish I would have too
seana is such a nice person i met her at the space ballroom show-- great video!!
amazing ❤
Thank you etherealalala
.Swirlies, a fun band to see live, saw them twice, once at the Uptown Bar in Minneapolis, and at Coffman Union on the U of MN campus. I first heard about them on 770 Radio K in the twin cities.. college radio! the term shoegaze comes from players looking at their feet, to use their various effects pedals correctly... the late 80's and 90's, was such a great time in music.. Hundreds of great albums came out..
BTAB remains one of my favorite shoegaze albums - I played the hell out of it in the mid 90s and still return to it. Swirlies really had a unique sound; I think they broadened the sound of shoegaze as much as any of the more famous bands did.
I love Swirlies. It's weird for me, years ago I was in hospital and the only cassette I had was What To Do About Them. I listened to it so much and even now... I'm don't like it too much, it brings back dark memories. I love listening to Yes Girls and Seana's song Collide. Beautiful, amazing music, I'm one light flashing ❤
That Syrup USA album is amazing.
so cool
Get show ! Gotta check out her other jams.
Agreed! It's great music.
Seana *did* briefly re-unite with the Swirlies for a 2 week tour in 2015. I saw the band's show in Boston. Judging that gig, I don't think Seana and the rest of the band played well together anymore and it looked like it was really hard for Seana. They're all really great people; they just no longer seemed to mesh.
could you try to interview raymond brake next? those guys are great as well.
i didn’t even know syrup usa had more songs than rosy, why bc it’s not up on spotify 😭
Hopefully she'll add the songs to Spotify!
Syrup USA currently not on Spotify
weird, what happened to my comment? deleted because I said "I love this"?
maybe a glitch
Not sure what happened there. I don't think I've ever deleted any comments before, so it must have been a glitch. I'm glad you loved the video!
