    Vagabon singer-songwriter Laetitia Tamko speaks with Kyle Meredith about how her self-titled, sophomore LP wound up with a very different sound. Tamko explains how a lack of community amidst a disappearing Brooklyn DIY scene left her with an opportunity for a chosen isolation. She discusses working with bathroom choirs, writing in French, and the expectations from being a multi-cultural artist. Tamko also gives the story behind a song originally written for Tegan and Sara, and her newest single: a grunge-driven song for the soundtrack to The Turning.

    Kyle Meredith With… is an interview series in which WFPK’s Kyle Meredith speaks to a wide breadth of musicians.
