'The last song that I found that I really, really liked is by a band called Love Apple. To me, it’s the perfect soul, sad, vocal kind of destroyed recording.'

KAKACEK: It’s more, like, shocking. Honestly, for some reason, there are a lot of gems to be found in old Westerns, too. There’s a song that I always put on every playlist that I can only find on YouTube. It’s by Jack Arel, it’s called “Something Happen.” I’m not even sure what movie it was in, but he would do soundtracks for Westerns and weird movies but, like, weird funk. It’s in between funk, country, and Pink Floyd or something.

. Anything Ja Rule was involved in. That was what dominated my formative party and romance years. And TLC. “FanMail” was one of my favorite songs.KAKACEK: Actually, a specific song that I did almost cry to in my bedroom before I left for the tour is a cover of “Don’t Think Twice It’s All Right” by John Martyn. He’s an English singer-songwriter. Just devastating. There is “Holocaust” by Big Star, “Famous Blue Raincoat” by Leonard Cohen… those are all ones that will destroy me.

KAKACEK: That’s a good question. Eventually, I would like to be better at playing drums. There’s something about drummers having a certain style that’s lazy and beautiful, and my style is just kind of pathetic. I can get the heel of just my right foot. It’s weird because I’m a lefty and bizarrely ambidextrous. I write with my right hand, but I do everything else with my left hand, but drums—it’s like my brain hasn’t figured it out yet. I’ve learned most string instruments as I could.

KAKACEK: Yeah. But for mine, I’m gonna use the Nina Simone song. Ah, no, she’s too cool for that. She should never be using theme music. Dang, this is a little depressing—of course, it’s classic—it’s my life, I have to choose a really sad song, right? It’s called “More Often Than Not” by Jerry Jeff Walker. It’s a sad song, but there would be heartwarming images over it, so you know that my life is a drama, but there are some things to learn from it.
