Kyle Bates' musical project-Drowse-is a window into his internal ruminations, a portal into his struggles with his mental health, and, according to Kyle, "a peek into his mind." This year's ambitious and markedly powerful release-Cold Air-showcases the heart, energy, soul, and care that Kyle puts forth in his music.  In this episode, Dan sat down and spoke to Kyle about his two Drowse releases this year, his time spent in Skagaströnd, Iceland during an artist-in-residency program, and his other musical project-Floating Room.
