For this installment of the Top Bunks and Aisle Seats podcast, Ampersand’s Ashley Eady interviewed Sim Jackson. Sim is the lead singer and guitarist for the Los Angeles-based band, The Vivids. Despite the band’s colorful name, The Vivids isn’t exactly what you would listen to at a sunny day at the beach. Their music is dreamily dark and artfully truthful. Listen to Sim and Ashley talk about his music and the challenges of living in Los Angeles.
