My Favourite Elliott Smith Song

S5 Ep2: Carmen Perry (Remember Sports)


Listen Later

Our second guest of this season is Carmen Perry from the band Remember Sports. 

Remember Sports formed back in 2012, when Carmen and her bandmates were studying at college/university. Since then, they've released five albums, most recently Like a Stone, which came out last year. 

It was as a teenager that Carmen became an Elliott Smith fan. She discovered his music when she was searching indie artists on download sites and immediately connected with it.

In this episode, we discuss her Elliott Smith origin story, how he made the piano cool and, of course, we talk about her favourite song choice too. 

We close out the episode with a cover of Angel in the Snow from the band Sam and Me.
