Can we talk our sh*t? The supremely talented musician Vagabon joins Devon on the pod this week to reveal which songs she thinks “have drugs in them,” lay out her ideal music festival lineup, and get to the root of why musicians are ultimately cooler than comedians.

Laetitia Tamko better known by her stage name Vagabon, is a Cameroonian-American self-taught multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and music producer based in New York City. Following her intimate 2017 debut “Infinite Worlds,” the New York artist favored expansive and evocative electronic textures in her breakthrough 2019 self-titled follow-up. The story her latest LP, “Sorry I Haven’t Called,” started in grief after her best friend died in 2021.This devastating and unexpected loss unmoored Tamko, but also gave her a newfound clarity. Across the 12 vibrant tracks she wrote and produced primarily in Germany, she channels dance music euphoria and effervescent pop through her own confident sensibilities. “Sorry I Haven’t Called” is a warm and resilient album born of both communal dance floor revelations and the clarifying peace from solitude, an emotional rebirth as well as an artistic one.
