43. Ok Vancouver Ok

On this episode, guest host Eli Moore returns to speak with Jeff Johnson of the Canadian indie band OK Vancouver OK. The project has been consistently cranking out a stream of primarily self-released albums since 2005, and their efforts are hard to classify in terms of genre, but they are clearly expiremental, socially conscious, and family-friendly. Their latest record as the time of this episode’s release is entitled “Never Perfect,” which you can find on their website.

Jeff discusses the band’s origins as a solo project in Vancouver, BC, the situations that inform his songwriting and recording process, and bringing his children on tour. Their drummer, Laura House, who is Jeff’s wife, also joins in the conversation to talk about the present danger of food deserts. We’ll also hear, in part or in whole, eleven of their songs.
