> Hey Amy! I was wondering if Artifact/The Turn was always intended to be a transition track into BPS? Were there any other songs you considered being the opening track? I also noticed that the demo for that song, specifically some of the lyrics, ended up being radically different…

> I like to play around in my home studio or laptop and just make stuff. I had that very beginning part (artifact) that I had recorded with the laptop mic at 3am in my hotel room on tour. Then I had this cool music bed that Scott Kirkland shared with me (Crystal Method), and messed with it and wrote the vocal backstage. I had those two parts in my little scrap vault, and when we were all in the woods writing in 2019, I pulled them out and tried gluing them together to BPS which we started up there and totally knew I wanted that as the intro. I was not intending to use the actual Artifact recording but its cool that its just the pure thing...

> Hi Amy! Excited to hopefully talk to you :) Can you talk us through the process of creating a setlist for a tour? Especially now with so many songs! How is the decision making? Is there a particular EV song from the past that you look back and think “we should’ve made a music…

> Making the setlist keeps getting tougher because there are so many songs now. Its hard to cut things out! I get with the band and we all throw out our favs that we want to play, then start narrowing it down (painful!) and building it in 2 ways- making it flow in a way that keeps the energy up, moving and interesting, and also spreading out the hardest ones for me so I can keep my voice going. This will be our longest set ever!

> Hi Amy! What was your favorite character in Majora's Mask? (It's my fave Zelda of all time so I had to know haha!) Do you still design clothing? Your Alice dress comes to mind-- so so cool!! Also...Would you wanna pick a name for my crappy car? Hahaha it looks like a big orange…

> (do I still design clothes) Yes I do. I work a lot with my friend Masaaki Sato in NY and we always come up with ideas together and go to the fabric store and get all creative. He's finishing up some cool new things for this tour.
