While some fans might know Gregory Jacobsen best for his funny cat paintings, this is only one small sliver of Gregory's art (visual and musical).
Avant-rock group Lovely Little Girls (the band Gregory has fronted for more than 20 years) is often a vehicle for some of the darker aspects of the vocalist and lyricist's psyche — and it's the band that we're largely focussed on today.
We discuss Lovely Little Girls' latest record Effusive Supreme (out last year on SKiN GRAFT Records) and how the band and Gregory's writing has evolved over the years.
There's time for delving into the stories behind some of the band's most colourful songs from past releases, songwriting, performing on stage, visuals and tales from the recording studio.
Gregory also tells the story of how he met and worked with Tommy Meehan (Squid Pisser), who talks about Gregory in episode 24 of the podcast — so here were are coming full circle.
