A former member of the cult-favorite boy band In Stereo, the singer-songwriter Chris Lanzon shares his effectively decade-long journey of making his first full-length solo album while finding the best part.

The in-depth sit down discusses the process of making a record that finds itself rebelling against the hyper-polished aesthetics of an increasingly AI-led world by embracing the imperfection, empathy, and connection of human-created music.
