On today's episode, I talk to musician Carey Mercer. Originally
from Okanagan, British Columbia, Carey formed the band Frog Eyes in
the early 2000s out of the ashes of his former band Blue Pine. From
2003 until 2018, they wrote and released almost a dozen albums and
EPs on labels like Absolutely Kosher and Dead Oceans. And in that
time, Carey also released a number of solo albums, as well as
with the supergroup Swan Lake featuring Destroyer's Dan Bejar and
Wolf Parade's Spencer Krug. In 2018, Frog Eyes disbanded, but four
years later they are back with a new album The Bees, which is out
on Paper Bag Records, and as usual, it's fantastic!
