Mixtape: Sunset
Simply a photo of a church near our family's house at sunset. My neighborhood is quiet and unassuming, yet really knows when to turn on the charm. I hope y'all are well. Keeping this short as I've been editing a 5,000-word oral history on the last Sonic Youth show for NPR Music. I trusted Grayson Currin — someone who reports, writes and files from trails across America — to dig in sideways to this delicate story; we really turned out something significant about a band we (and many others) really miss. —Lars Gotrich
