Today Andy is joined by TLF a.k.a Christoph 'Hadl' Hassel. Hadl appeared on the show back in 2020 as half of Siamese Youth, but today he’s flying solo to talk about the origins of the TLF project, 80s music, playing pianos, and collaborating with one of his childhood music influences Chris Huelsbeck. Hadl also chats about top-lining for other artists, Right Said Fred, classical music, and Rondò Veneziano. There’s even a brief cameo from Happy the dog!
