#78 Stu Mackenzie (King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard)

HearSej

Seja talks to her guest Stu Mackenzie (King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard) about his upcoming multi-genre residency shows in Brisbane, COVID-19 admin on tour and how difficult it is to remember 75 songs at the same time. Stu tells Seja about how he approaches music like architecture, his addictive personality and how this feeds his compulsion to write, and how his dad would play him Australian Roots/Country to put him to sleep as a kid. They chat about needing parameters while writing, their love of Juno-60s, and the phenomenon of everyone hearing music differently to one another. Stu’s strange show story was illustrated by Alex Smith (@alexosm). All illustrations can be seen on Instagram @hearsejpodcast or on the HearSej Facebook page.
