newer songs we’re tinkering with from the new record. Imagine playing the same pool of 10 or 11 songs from your first record for like three or four years. You don’t get tired of it ever when you’re playing in front of people, but it is really exciting to be able to start to experiment with new stuff. Alice: Who are your musical idols? Jesse: All the studio players from up in Muscle Shoals, like David Hood and Jimmy Jackson, all those dudes are so musical and so humble and so nice – all just great musicians and songwriters up there. And they’re really great role models, not only as musicians but as people. My first sort of real love for a band was The Beatles and John Lennon was my favorite, but these days now that I’m an adult I try to draw inspiration from wherever I can. Alice: What is the last album you listened to? Did you like it? Jesse: This is a weird one by Khruanebin. It’s mostly instrumental and the band is very influenced by this sort of obscure strain of Thai folk music from the ‘70s. The record is not really Western-sounding. It’s kind of jazzy funk laid back but it has Eastern twinges to some of the melodies. That’s a record I’ve been really into because it’s a little out of the box but it still sounds and feels very nice. It’s very chill and listenable. Alice: What’s it like when you get together with the band in the studio? Jesse: Sometimes you have a really good idea of what’s going to happen but the structure of the song is already there so you’re kind of trying to find how you want to present it aesthetically. It can get pretty specific like turning around one mic for an hour. It’s a lot more loose and expansive sometimes. There’ll just be an idea or we’ll be sitting around in the studio and someone will just jump in. It’s a combination of both. Our band is very collaborative. For ours there’s a little more experimentation and approach. We’re in there total for like 23/24 days this time, for 12 or 13 songs. Alice: What do you hope people will experience when listening to the new album? Jesse: I think just that we’re still the band people have grown to really enjoy. We’re still at heart an R&B band, but we’ve matured a little bit and grown both as a band and as musicians and are able to provide a more multifaceted listening experience. If I had to pick one word to describe the first record I’d say it’s a very visceral record. I’d like to think that this one we’ve made a record that’s still visceral but combined with more cerebral elements. Alice: What’s the future look like? Jesse: It feels like there’s a lot of big things coming up. We’ve created a new show around the new record and added some of the newer songs in. So we’re super excited to debut the new show. We mostly just hope that people enjoy the record and enough people buy it. So we can make another one. St. Paul & The Broken Bones’ album Sea of Noise is available now on iTunes.
