Alexis chats with Melbourne multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and DJ from Naarm/Melbourne, the incredible Woody Samson. From the wild joys of live performance to writing an EP live on stage, Woody chats with Alexis about balancing gigs with rest, working through trauma, and the magic of letting curiosity lead the way. Woody brings trumpet, guitar, synths, percussion and serious energy to every stage, and this convo is just as vibrant.
