The “When Words Fail Music Speaks Podcast” features a detailed conversation with Laura Lee Schultz, lead singer of the Vancouver-origin band Down the Lees, discussing her musical journey, influences, and experiences. The podcast covers a range of topics from Schultz’s solo projects and band formation to recording an album with Steve Albini, touring, and the therapeutic aspects of playing instruments. Schultz shares insights into her shift towards heavier music after spending time in Belgium, her involvement in a grunge riot girl band, and her exploration of different music genres. The discussion also touches on favorite bands, the concept of slowcore, and the significance of songs that reflect on climate change and personal struggles during the pandemic.
