Sufjan Stevens & Mythos Interviews

Idiosyncratic folk-rocker Sufjan Stevens shuts up and plays his synthesizers. His songs are great, but he also has an electronic instrumental side. He’s just released a five volume set of deeply ambient compositions called Convocations. It’s partly a response to deaths in the family and the pandemic. We convene with Sufjan Stevens on Echoes.
