Sam and Lewis of Kaarst are on! Kaarst started as Sam's electronic project and has now formed into a fully fledged live act. We talk about the challenges of interpreting the music for a live show, how music is shaped by live performance, and the learning curve of coming to a new style of music from a background in heavy music.
