Broadcasts :: Chris Cohen

Welcome back to Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions. This week we are pleased to welcome guest host Zara Hedderman and singer/songwriter Chris Cohen for a generous, in-depth and honest conversation. Cohen’s new album is called Painting a room. On his fourth solo album—you may know his work with Deerhoof, The Curtains, Cryptacize, Ariel Pink, Cass Mccombs, Weyes Blood, and others—Cohen collaborates with musical heavyweights like Jeff Parker and Josh Johnson, bringing a touch of ’70s lightheartedness to Cohen’s remarkable compositions.

In this wide-ranging chat, they discuss the new album, years of working in record stores, Transcendental Meditation, The Grateful Dead, and much more. It’s an open and tender conversation full of funny moments and deep insights.
