Uncover the Spooky Side of Twinhood
Mirror Image Twins: A Unique Connection
Imagine having a twin who is essentially your mirror image. That's the case for our protagonist. She and her twin share countless similarities, from handedness to hair partings and even the order of tooth emergence. It's a phenomenon that may be considered "junk science" by some, but it's a part of their lives they've grown up with.
Her twin is left-handed while she is right-handed. Her hair parted on one side as a kid, and her twin's on the other. And when it came to teeth, one got a specific tooth first, only for the other to get the exact same tooth but on the opposite side. It's a remarkable coincidence that has shaped their lives in unexpected ways.
Music and Songwriting: The Twin Connection
Our musician also has a partner who is a musician. They don't have any strict rules about writing songs about each other, but they understand the importance of their music. In the past, during rough patches, writing about it was a sensitive matter. But as songwriters, their mission is to create great songs, and within reason, they're free to explore any topic.
They both share a passion for music and the creative process. It's a bond that goes beyond just being siblings or partners. It's a connection that fuels their creativity and allows them to express themselves through their music.
The Sandwich Named After Her
Imagine having a sandwich named after you! Our musician has a favorite sandwich from a bodega in New Orleans called Verti Marte. It's on French bread and filled with ham, turkey, cheese, grilled onions, grilled tomatoes, shrimp, and remoulade. It sounds crazy, but it's absolutely delicious. She wishes it could be renamed the Katie.
This sandwich represents a moment of indulgence and pleasure for her. It's a small thing in life that brings her joy and reminds her of a special place.
Celebrity Encounters: A Memorable Experience
In high school, our musician drove to Atlanta to see Jenny Lewis with her friends. They followed her around Little Five Points and had a memorable encounter. Years later, when they met again, there was an unspoken understanding. Jenny Lewis' music has had a profound impact on her life.
These types of experiences add a special touch to one's life and create memories that last a lifetime.
Albums on Heavy Rotation
When it comes to albums on heavy rotation, Brat is at the top of the list. Our musician saw Charli two nights ago in LA and is still rehashing the experience. The remix album is also a favorite, as she recognizes Charli's genius.
Music has a way of staying with us and constantly bringing us joy. These albums are a testament to that.
The Chaotic Stage Incident
Ten years ago, while playing a venue in Zurich, Switzerland, our musician had a terrifying experience. She walked on stage to start the show only to realize her guitar was backstage. In the dark, she rushed to get it and ended up injuring herself badly. Her entire thigh was purple for months afterwards.
Despite the pain, she managed to continue the show and seek medical attention afterwards. It's a reminder that even in the midst of chaos, one must persevere.
Most Used Emoji and Fashion Crimes
The monocle person and the upside down smiley face are her most used emojis. And when it comes to fashion crimes, she loves to take taboo items like Uggs and repurpose them. She's constantly trying to make Uggs look chic, even if it means pairing them with inappropriate things.
She believes in taking risks and making fashion statements. It's about expressing oneself and not being afraid to stand out.
Funeral Wishes: Party or Cry?
When asked if she wants people to cry or party at her funeral, she firmly chooses party. But there's a hint of humor in her response, as she also considers what might happen if ghosts are real and she's haunting her own funeral.
It's a lighthearted take on a serious topic, showing her unique perspective on life and death.
Waxahatchee is currently touring Australia, with stops in Perth on 29 November, Brisbane on 1 December, Sydney on 2 December, Melbourne on 5 December, and Hobart on 8 December. It's an exciting time for her fans and a chance to experience her music live.
