In this episode, Tia travels track-by-track with Fred through the album, and the two discuss choosing to be joyful, keeping journals, and whiskey preferences.
Last year, Fred Gibson (under the moniker Fred again..) quietly dropped an electronic album that sampled audio from his actual life, and gave it the fitting title, ‘Actual Life (April 14 - December 17 2020)’. Since then, the artist has gained seismic traction and a global following, including KEXP’s Social Media Manager Tia Ho. In this episode, Tia travels track-by-track with Fred through the album, and the two discuss choosing to be joyful, keeping journals, and whiskey preferences.
