I first heard of Kiana on Gimlet Media’s podcast, Sampler, and have since been following her work. From the deep southern cuts in her mixes on Soundcloud to her writing pieces and music reviews on NPR, Music writer and DJ, Kiana Fitzgerald at the age of twenty-six is doing a little of it all.

Still very much in life’s transitional phase, as am I, listen as Kiana and I talk about new beginnings, the absurdity of this week and the beauty and fear that’s intertwined with embracing the process.
