Manifesting Someone To Watch Over You with Cassandra Jenkins

Zak meets up with one of his favorite songwriters, [Cassandra Jenkins] (https://cassandrajenkins.com) , before her show in Amsterdam. They talk about her pre-show ritual, inspired by her friend, [Erika Spring] (https://erikaspring.bandcamp.com/album/erika-spring) . It's something we can all try next time we're in need of some knowing companionship. It's called...The Cosmic Guest List. "Like the night sky itself, My Light, My Destroyer is always expanding. [Cassandra Jenkins'] (https://cassandrajenkins.com/) third full-length, out July 12 via Dead Oceans, cracks open the promise of reaching the edge of the new with a wider sonic palette than ever before– encompassing guitar-driven indie rock, new age, sophistipop, and jazz. At the center of it all is Jenkins' curiosity towards the quarks and quasars that make up her universe, as she blends field recordings with poetic lyricism that is at turns allusive, humorous, devastating and confessional– an alchemical gesture that further deepens the richness of My Light, My Destroyer's 13 songs." -cassandrajenkins.com/ Help Zak continue making this show by becoming a Best Advice Show Patron @ [https://www.patreon.com/bestadviceshow] (https://www.patreon.com/bestadviceshow) --- Call Zak on the advice show hotline @ 844-935-BEST---Share this episode on [IG @BestAdviceShow] (https://www.instagram.com/bestadviceshow/) ...
