Artist Interviews Perfect Pussy
Before their show at Township, some of the guys from Perfect Pussy stepped outside to hang out with CHIRP's Cher Vincent. They talked about naming songs after numbers, how to make a recording sound like you're playing in a tunnel, and almost getting Mom to be in the interview. Perfect Pussy play the Pitchfork Music Festival 2014. Happy Mother's Day!
