Quarantuned Ep. 12: Monica Arrington (aka Nerdkween) on Kimono My House, juggling three different musical outlets, how the past year has been for her, the importance of hard conversations, & more.
Episode 12
Tuesday, 30 March, 2021
Welcome to Quarantuned With the Good Graces! Quarantuned is an interview podcast that focuses on staying creative, present, and connected during these unsettled and isolating times. In episode 12 of “Quarantuned,” I’m talking with Monica Arrington, a wonderful singer-songwriter and composer from Atlanta who performs under the name Nerdkween. We had a very honest, deep, and varied conversation that felt very important for me to have. We touched on Kimono My House and the recent birthday bash in which she performed three times over the course of the weekend; the defining qualities of her primary musical outlet, Nerdkween, and how it's different from her other projects Blackfox and The Hills and the Holler; how the past year has been for her, considering not only Covid but also all the events surrounding the murder of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter, etc., and why it's important to be open to having difficult conversations but it's also equally if not more important to realize, as a white person, that trust is not a given. It needs to be earned. I am very grateful for Monica's patience, insight, and friendship. You can learn more about Monica / Nerdkween through her various musical outlets: Nerdkween - https://nerdkween.bandcamp.com/ The Hills and the Holler - https://www.facebook.com/thehillsandtheholler Blackfox - http://www.blackfoxmusic.net/ Music in this episode: Intro and outro: "Porchlight" by the Good Graces, from the album "Set Your Sights" Featured track: "...a year of the Dragon" by Nerdkween
