Summary

John Carroll Kirby is a musician from Los Angeles. His new record, Blowout, is out today on Stones Throw. We chat about how it's getting harder and harder to get a life, Barbie and Grimace can't occupy this much space in our lives, some Kardashian housekeeping, emerging designer Pinkus, a report from the streets of SF, how much he spent on a (medium) smart water at LAX, we get him set up with an Amex, the Rhodes vs. Nord wars, why he does well in Japan, the exact amount of drinks to have before hitting the stage, going to the Beyonce show in London, when live performances don't need the full band, getting pickpocketed in Rome, the LA river itself catches a stray, him and his gf getting denied at Berghain, the three of us agree to attend the Stagecoach Festival next year, and we close on some sync talk. instagram.com/johncarrollkirby twitter.com/donetodeath twitter.com/themjeans Learn more about your ad choices.
