Elroy, whose debut LP comes out this Friday, speaks to Alex Green of Stereo Embers

PODCAST INTERVIEW

Elroy recently chatted with Alex Green of the Stereo Embers Podcast about his debut album (out this Friday via Grand Phony), touring with his Dad's band Crowded House and with his friends Wild Nothing and Connan Mockasin, plus much more! Green says the record "is a shimmering collection of sonorous indie pop that manages to be both spare and textured at the same time. Finn is a master of musical light division and his work is brimming with low-fi folk, thoughtful psychedelia, pure poetry, and a lot of heart."

Really appreciate you, Central Track. Thanks for giving love to the new Chris J. Norwood song "Good Guy With A Gun" today. Acknowledging the tune’s heavy theme, Chris says, "We’ve been given fruitless answers about how to stop a bad guy with a gun, but little in the way of how to stop a good guy with a gun… I don’t have any solutions to offer, but my hope is to encourage dialogue."
