Our guest this episode is a dear friend. Leif Andersen is the guitarist of Vendetta Red and LVNLVN as well as the creator and host of a new podcast called Let's Get High And Read The Bible. In Leif's new exploration into podcasting he leans on his lifelong relationship with faith and his regular practice of reading The Bible. He also gets really high and analyzes and compares verses with co-host Geoff Reading (Loaded/Green Apple Quickstep). I most definitely recommend you check it out, especially starting around episode 8 or 9 on. Look for a new album from LVNLVN in early 2022!

We had just as great a time during this follow-up conversation as our first! I hope you enjoy. We cover a lot about her earliest musical experiences all the way up to the great things and the less great things about being in a band. Be sure to check out Soraia at the link below. You can catch them December 9, 2021 at Kingsland in Brooklyn NY. Thanks for watching! If you're enjoying the Couch Riffs podcast or our cover song performances please support us at PATREON.
