S18 E2: Lars Wolfshield
Episode 2
Thursday, 26 March, 2026
I recently read a blog post of mine from 2019, not long after I’d quit my job and it was clear that I was riddled with self-doubt, some fear, some excitement at this new liminal space I was going into. And also worrying about what people think. What the actual fuck? I look back and think why?? Most people were excited for me and those that were sniffy, well, I thought I didn’t give a fuck about them. But they still snuck into my brain rent free.The self doubt lasted a good while into doing my new stuff – managing a short-lived band (the short lived part had nothing to do with me, honest!), this podcast, graphic design for the zine. It’s definitely eased up, so much so that I’ve started doing some video work and just recently I’ve redesigned a band’s website. Ultimately, the thrill of doing this kinda stuff was too powerful a draw for the self-doubt to be the winner, although it wasn’t fucking plain sailing.I first met my amazing friend and today’s guest Lars Wolfshield when they were, amongst other things, managing the experimental punk band Pleasure Venom. We’ve become close friends since then and done some amazing trips together here in the UK, Europe and their current city, Austin. When Lars told me that the calling to actually create music instead of managing musicians was getting so strong, I realised there was a fair bit of symmetry to our journeys – reigniting our classical training, having some creative calling, uncertainty, anxieties. Yet, for me, returning to play my cello in front of people seems light years away, whereas Lars has gone full throttle into their new venture called Jet Cemetery with their partner and my good mate TaSz Trebuchet. Jet Cemetery’s debut album The Canary will be out in the world by the time you listen to this episode – in fact it’s out the day after we are recording this, but it’s a wonderful – I’m gonna call it handbook for today’s world lives where we are subjected to almost endless liminality, and one that explores the dystopia of the world today and brings together the light and dark, hope and hopeless, the soothing and the unnerving. Lars’ celestial voice is layered alongside TaSz’s subversively tender beats and synths as well as exquisitely saturated and distressed visuals. If you haven’t checked it out yet, just go for it.https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.
