Jeen O’Brien is utterly brilliant, she’s also extremely prolific, releasing five records since 2015. She has also helped create tunes for a slew of great Canadian artists including Serena Ryder, Hawksley Workman, and Great Big Sea, and has had her music featured in everything from Google commercials to Degrassi.
This was an incredibly honest conversation about her mental health battles and musical career that has spanned over 20 years.

These three from Norway just blow my mind, I simply cannot get enough of them. They create such intense and rich soundscapes that pull you in like a hug from a loved one that seems like it’s never going to end, and you’re OK with that, you love hugs with this loved one. I simply adore Spielbergs.
