This week, Features contributor Alyssa Edes speaks with Jen Dot of the newly reunited and Chicago-based beastii. They discuss their newest LP, Follower, Jen's book Hit Girls: Women of Punk in the USA, 1975-1983 that covers the women who started Punk music, and her unlikely sources of inspiration for songwriting, like lyrics she wrote as a seven year old.
"This is actually the first album I've conceptualized since I wrote the book, and since I was immersed in those artists' work. I'm being my authentic self, but I'm also carrying a torch." - Jen Dot of beastii
Produced by Alyssa Edes.
