King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard's Ambrose Kinney-Smith's Spark Is Emitt Rhodes

This week I'm joined by Ambrose Kenny-Smith of The Warlocs and King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard to talk about his spark Emitt Rhodes' self-titled second album

Although it never got the recognition it deserved, this album was an enormous influence for artists like Aimee Mann and Mac DeMarco. Rhodes wrote the album, played every instrument and produced it; all from his parents' garage.

The album's backstory is incredible and so is Ambrose's relationship to it.
