After the Deluge

Emily Kitchin is a social media manager, ex music journalist, and self-described Conor Oberst superfan. We talk about a blog post she wrote called, “If Their Favorite Bright Eyes Song is ___ Then ___.” Plus songs without choruses, holding space for normies, loving I’m Wide Awake It’s Morning, Kevin Devine, Rocky Votolato, “cool” music, etc. Read Emily’s blog post here: https://www.collectinginterest.com/bright-eyes

A SAMPLING:

• “Landlocked Blues” — HAS DADDY ISSUES AND SOME SERIOUS EMOTIONAL TRAUMA FROM PAST RELATIONSHIPS.
• “Bowl Of Oranges” — REALLY INTO SPREADING POSITIVITY. VEGAN. THEY BOTTLE THEIR EMOTIONS. FOLLOWS CUTE ANIMAL ACCOUNTS.
• “Let’s Not Shit Ourselves” — DOWN TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT BUT ALSO LIKES TO HANG OUT WITH THEIR MOM. MARRY THEM.
• “Take It Easy (Love Nothing)” — ACTIVE TINDER USER. KNOWS WHAT THEY WANT IN LIFE. LOVES TIM KASHER.
• “Loose Leaves” — HMU, WE ARE SOULMATES
• “Shell Games” — MATURE FOR THEIR AGE. STEERING WHEEL DRUMMER. STEREOTYPICAL INDIE BRO BUT AN OVERALL GOOD PERSON.
• “Nothing Gets Crossed Out” — DEPRESSED AS ALL HELL. THEY REWARD THEMSELVES WITH LITTLE VICTORIES. EATS A LOT OF BREAD AND WISHES THEY COULD FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT.
