[N] After you arrived here in Copenhagen, you had to buy something important.
What was it?
Oh, a drum stand for the snare drum.
So now you're prepared for the show?
Prepared, yep, ready to go.
And looking forward?
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
It's a bigger festival than I thought it was, but it's exciting.
What's the [Eb] difference to play a small audience, a small venue, or like a big stage as here?
[C] To play the small venue, it's more intimate and [E] I kind of like that better.
It's more like you're a [N] part of the crowd.
And then at a big festival, you kind of feel distanced from the people, but it's fun in its own way.
You get to play bigger stages and you get to play on these big sound systems that you maybe wouldn't otherwise.
Suddenly you're sharing the stage with very large bands.
That's kind of fun.
Do you have another goal?
No, I think at a festival, it's weird because when you have your own club show, it's kind of like your evening.
It's like your night that you're curating and you're doing, you know, it's kind of like it's all about you and your band.
Whereas at a festival, it's about many people and many different bands.
So, it's kind of like you're
I one time heard an interviewer, Will Oldham, compare a festival to a buffet.
And it's kind of like being at a buffet, which can be a good or bad thing.
But it's like there's a bunch of different options and people kind of come, watch a little bit of you and then leave to go watch something else.
Whereas at your own show, everyone's there, you know, just for you that night.
At this buffet right here, what are you adding?
What's your flavor?
Some American flavor.
Some American ingredients.
Is Kevin Marley now a band or is it still you?
It's still me.
Because the recording is
I always try to make the recording different than the live version.
But this is the closest it's ever been to the recording in the live version.
It's been this new album, but I'm, you know, my next record will be completely different with different people.
You seem quite cool and quite chill always.
But in the last five years, you started like four records.
And I'm guessing in your head, there has to be like totally crazy stuff going on all the time.
[G] And you feel the need to put it out.
Is that correct or am I totally [Am] wrong?
Yeah, there's a lot of
I have a lot of different thoughts going on and a creative impulse.
And I like to just create things and always be [N] working on something.
So I think it comes from there.
If I'm not working on something, I feel I get stirred crazy.
And then I really feel crazy.
It's almost like working on something keeps me from feeling crazy.
You went quite political and talked about the latest presidential election.
Has that anger, I don't know if it's anger, but this feeling that came up [D] after this election already
Does it swipe away or [A] is this something [Eb] that you feel you still need to talk about?
[Gb]
[Db] Yeah, I feel like people still need to talk about it.
Though I think most people [Ab] have become desensitized to it in a way, myself [N] included.
Living in America has gotten pretty funny or living anywhere in the world [C] has gotten pretty surreal.
You look at the news and see what the [E] headlines are and it's usually pretty bad.
But it's almost kind of
it's comical.
It's [Bb] gotten very comical.
It's kind of like a joke [D] now.
And loving those around you is political in its own right.
[E] So [D] I've been political in that way.
Do you believe [N] in something that is bigger than maybe the moment?
Well, I think that the now is the big thing.
[D] I think that it's not believing in something bigger than the moment, it's believing in the moment.
On this [Ab] record, what is the thing that you want [N] the people to hear?
With this record I want
[Ab] I don't know.
I kind of made this record
It's a hard question to answer, but I want people to
[Eb] I want to just
I want to give [B] people energy.
I think it's my main thing with this record.
I want people to feel energized when they listen to it.
Where does this need of more energy [Bb] come from?
It was just kind of scratching an itch that I wanted to scratch.
Just a part of my music fascination that I wanted to touch on.
Sort of more rock and roll.
[E] My live band is more rock and roll, so I wanted to depict that as well.
And just kind of [B] capture this time and moment of where my band is at and where I'm at.
[Eb] What will your music sound like [Ab] in the future?
Probably very
Probably not rock and roll.
Probably spoken word.
Probably go the complete other way.
[D] No guitars.
What was it?
Oh, a drum stand for the snare drum.
So now you're prepared for the show?
Prepared, yep, ready to go.
And looking forward?
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
