Learning to Read Myself, with Retirement Party

The summer hasn't even started and Retirement Party has kicked off the sounds of the season. Avery Springer of Retirement Party joins to talk about the release of the debut full-length record, "Somewhat Literate," moving to Chicago, forming Retirement Party to turn around an EP, her favorite parts of the Chicago scene and more.
