Ex-bandmates (but not ex-friends) Elianne and Stephanie sat down with a bottle of vinho verde one Friday afternoon, talked a little past, a lot of present, and a little future, as artists and as people. To be a woman in the industry is tough enough, but Elianne’s point of view as a Latina woman in the industry is one that should be noted, and also praised.

Aside from the things which make them different, Stephanie and her guest bond over pre-show prep, sister drama, and enduring potty-mouth humor.
