I first heard Yeasayer a few years ago during the closing credits of an episode of Entourage. It was their song “Sunrise,” and it made me an instant fan. Three years and two albums later, I had the opportunity to interview one of their band members Anand Wilder. We talked about their new album Fragrant World, which is excellent, and also played a game of word association, where I asked him about Jay-Z, molly, crab cakes, and more. Check both links below, and listen to “Fingers Never Bleed,” the first track off Fragrant World (and one of my faves from the album), which is out today.
