Almost Heaven

Hello friends! Stefan Barraza and Jaelyn Valero from Austin based, indie dance, post-punk, electro-pop duo Almost Heaven are my guests for episode 1543! Their infectious new EP, "Raw Cranium" is out today on all streaming platforms, CD, and vinyl. Go to rawcranium.com for more info. They're celebrating the release of "Raw Cranium" with a show tonight, Friday, Jan. 30 at Brushy Street Commons in Austin. Get tickets HERE. We have a great conversation about how the duo came together last year and made "Raw Cranium" with producer Ernesto Grey, Stefan's time growing up in El Paso and how his curious mind and restlessness lead him to music, Jaelyn's native Austinite upbringing seeing local bands on a regular basis, creating a scene, their zine Locket Magazine, starting their own label, dealing with today's political climate as artists and human beings, and much more. I had a great time getting to know Stefan and Jaelyn. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
