26 SEP 2019 · In this edition of In Sight Out, a series of podcasts from Pitchfork that explores new perspectives on music, art, and culture, Pitchfork editor-in-chief Puja Patel speaks with Haim.
The Los Angeles sisters Danielle, Este, and Alana Haim have been playing music as long as they could hold instruments; as children, they played in a cover band called Rockinhaim with their parents. They formed Haim in 2012, and turned heads with their single “Forever” shortly thereafter. Their debut, Days Are Gone, arrived in 2013, a catchy, effervescent blend of pop-rock, R&B, and soft rock. They returned in 2017 with their sophomore effort, Something to Tell You, and most recently released the new single “Summer Girl,” which they debuted at their performance at Pitchfork Music Festival.

29 AUG 2019 · In this edition of In Sight Out, a series of podcasts from Pitchfork that explore new perspectives on arts and culture, music writer Leor Galil speaks with Whitney.
After Chicago glam-rock outfit Smith Westerns broke up at the end of 2014, guitarist Max Kakacek and drummer Julien Ehrlich broke off to experiment with a different musical approach. They synthesized sweet Chicago soul melodies, plaintive country songwriting, and gentle ’70s folk: Ehrlich took on lead vocals behind the kit, and his comforting falsetto coo solidified the sound they began to make under the name Whitney. Their 2016 debut, Light Upon the Lake, made them indie-rock darlings, and catapulted them to unassuming stars in their hometown.
Before Whitney performed at the 2019 Pitchfork Music Festival, Kakacek and Ehrlich sat down with Leor Galil at the Chicago Athletic Association to talk about their band’s history and their forthcoming second album, Forever Turned Around.

15 MAR 2019 · In many people’s minds, the thought of an art museum conjures a space that’s focused on the visual.

5 MAR 2019 · William Basinski is a minimalist ambient composer, best known for his work using analog tape loops. Over the decades, his work has drawn inspiration from everything from September 11th to the sound of black holes colliding.
For this episode of Sound & Space, we get front row seats to a rehearsal for the orchestral arrangement of Basinski's seminal work "The Disintegration Loops" with the Chicago Philharmonic. William and Pitchfork Radio's Elia Einhorn also discuss how physical spaces inform musical presentation and just what “art scientists” actually do.
