Kate Tempest discusses The Book of Traps and Lessons: "Its this sense of the tension between the smallness of a life & the hugeness of the context in which that life exists."

Kate Tempest

Kate Tempest gives Kyle Meredith a ring to dive into her Rick Rubin produced album, The Book of Traps and Lessons. We hear about finding the right sounds to accompany her poetry, tying personal stories into a big picture of a lost Europe amidst Brexit, the way the character at a better version of themselves by the album's end, and what it's like to perform a piece like this on the Glastonbury stage.

Listen to the interview above and then check out the videos below.

Kyle is the WFPK Music Director. Email Kyle at kmeredith@lpm.org
