Our first episode of OTN after a nine month hiatus had to be a favorite among out podcast guests, Elijah Johnston! EJ has been on the pod a couple of times to have a fun and enlightening chat and this one is no different! 

Elijah is an indie rock singer songwriter and based in Atlanta, GA. Known for his heartfelt lyrics and dynamic blend of pop, rock, and folk influences, Elijah has garnered a dedicated fanbase by baking in memorable melodies and introspective stories into his songs. 

On this episode, we talked about The 1975, the power and artistry of David Lynch, musical hot takes, his approach to recording, and his new single 'Valentines Day' which is a cover by the one and only Bruce Springsteen!
