Fox Haynes, former frontman of Sweet Spine, joins us to talk about his transition into solo work and the release of his latest track “Mattress.” The song opens with an indie rock feel reminiscent of Atlas Genius before shifting into a more synth heavy direction, layered, dynamic, and subtly experimental with nods to LANY. It’s a fresh take that taps into the energy of late 2000s nostalgia through a modern lens.

We also talk touring with Sawyer Hill, long drives through winter roads, and the quiet in between moments like 3am bus rides and making the most of limited gear. Whether it’s recording vocals through a webcam mic or finding creative workarounds, Fox shares how constraints can become part of the process, not a setback.

A conversation about change, process, and pushing forward with whatever tools you’ve got.
