Abi Reimold talks life since releasing Wriggling on the 25 O’Clock Podcast
Since the January release of her LP Wriggling, Philly’s own Abi Reimold has been getting a lot of attention, including stopping by for one of The Key Studio Sessions in April. More recently, the Havertown native sat down with Dan Drago on the latest episode of his 25 O’Clock Podcast.
The two chatted for over an hour, and the range of their conversation was all over the place. They addressed what music journalism is at the moment, considering Reimold studied journalism at Temple. They talked about Wriggling and the sad state that it conveys, even though Reimold doesn’t see herself as the same person now. Drago shared his thoughts on the record as a listener, saying he hears different voices from Reimold at different points. Reimold discussed what she’s been doing off the stage, like photography and a follow up album, to what she does on it, such as making use of looping pedals.
Reimold performs at the end, capping the podcast with a song that was just as raw as the preceding conversation was personal. To hear the entire episode, head to the 25 O’Clock Podcast website. You can also stream Wriggling (Sad Cactus Records) below via bandcamp.
Abi Reimold will play Bourbon & Branch this Friday, May 27th, when XPN welcomes Queen of Jeans. Also playing will be Vita and the Woolf. Head to the XPN Concert Calendar for tickets and more information.
