We jump on a call with Maddy Herbert of neo-soul band Velvet Bloom to chat all about their latest release, their upcoming EP, christmas carols, songwriting processes, recording for vinyl, and fundraising for the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, all featuring some adorable adopted kits and pups.

CW: I do another little intro at the start of the actual interview but I just wanted to pop in here and mention a sensitive content warning. In the first few minutes into chatting with Carla, about the 2-3 minute mark, we do briefly talk about mental health (as usual), but we also mention suicide, so just be prepped for that.

Otherwise, welcome to this funky, albeit short, episode with Sydney indie pop artist Carla Wehbe!
