I kick off the podcast with Wicked Lite Bites—lighthearted, community stories and happenings from each New England state. Then, I sit down with Zoë Knight, Boston-based singer, songwriter, pianist, and music educator to talk about her latest project with her band Mythical Beasts: Love Cycle. This five-part, 19-minute psychedelic art rock journey explores the deeply human shift from hyper-independence to finding strength in community.

Zoë shares what inspired the album, how the band crafted its sound, and why Love Cycle is both deeply personal and universally resonant. We talk about vulnerability, the myth of self-reliance, and how music can be a lifeline for connection, especially when we feel most alone.

Whether you're into indie music, concept albums, creative process deep-dives, or just love hearing artists talk about what drives them, this one’s for you. Come join the conversation.
