On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Charmaine Lee! In 2025, Charmaine is not fucking around. She’s got an incredible new record on the way in a couple months called “Tulpa.” She’s just started a new label, Kou, with her partner Randall Dunn that has a unique and innovative approach to running a label. Oh, and she’s about to go on a 3-month, 90 city tour of the US in which she will play in all 50 states. And yet, she found time to yak with me about Tower of Power, Grouper, Ornette Coleman, Eyvind Kang, Phil Collins, U2, Dilla, and more!
