San Fran Soundscape: Ari Vais Musical Odyssey from the Bay Area to Beyond
What if we told you that your next road trip soundtrack could be heavily influenced by the beauty of San Francisco and the Bay Area? We sat down with singer-songwriter Ari Vais to discuss how living in these incredible locations has inspired his music and led to the creation of his captivating song "My Many Obsessions." Ari shares how his upbringing in both the Soviet Union and Cambridge, Massachusetts have shaped his musical influences, ranging from the Beatles to hair metal, and how discovering the Velvet Underground and REM opened his eyes to the freedom of artistic expression.
During our conversation, Ari delves into the process of songwriting and the work it takes to develop one's unique voice. He also shares his experiences playing in different countries and how the reactions of audiences in the UK and Canada differ from those in metropolitan areas. Plus, you'll get a glimpse into some of Ari's favorite venues, including the Mercury Lounge in Manhattan and Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco.
We also discuss the importance of humor and free speech in entertainment, reflecting on how cancel culture can negatively affect the creative process. Ari shares his thoughts on stand-up comedy and the joy we find in laughing at the absurdities of life. Finally, we chat about his new album, recent single "Sand and Glue," and an upcoming compilation of songs from the 90s. Don't miss this engaging and insightful conversation with Ari Vais, and let his music inspire your next adventure.
