Amanda Palmer presents an intimate conversation with Rachel Jayson, recorded September 10, 2019 in Woodstock, NY.
Rachel Jayson is musician, educator and fashion designer. She is the violist in two bands: Jaggery and Walter Sickert & the ARmy of BRoken TOys. She also teaches music and conducts two award-winning orchestras at Lexington High School outside of Boston. Rachel has also designed footwear for John Fluevog Shoes and makes her own clothing.
In this episode we talk about what it means to be Dapper Q, being a proxy for African Americans to her mostly white students, teaching children to use music as a tool, finding music that is as angry as you are, overcoming postpartum anxiety, and Rachel’s notoriously independent mentor.
