  You're listening to Song Exploder,

• 00:01

  where musicians take apart their songs and piece by piece tell the story of how they were made.

• 00:06

  I'm Rishikesh Hirway.

• 00:10

  If you haven't heard the news yet,

• 00:12

  Tao Nguyen from the band Tao and the Get Down Stay Down is taking over for me as the host of this podcast,

• 00:17

  starting in January 2019.

• 00:19

  I'm going to step a little further into the background,

• 00:21

  and she'll be the one interviewing the artists, and you'll hear her voice introducing each episode.

• 00:25

  So I wanted to reissue the episode from April 2016,

• 00:28

  where she was the guest, breaking down one of her own songs.

• 00:31

  You can get to know her better if you missed it the first time around,

• 00:33

  or re-listen to it if you heard it then.

• 00:35

  Tao and I have hung out a few times in person, but when we did the interview for this episode,

• 00:39

  it was over the phone, and it was the first time we'd spoken.

• 00:42

  By the time the hour had passed, it seemed clear to me that she was a kind,

• 00:45

  smart, and sensitive person who was thoughtful about art and process.

• 00:48

  For all those reasons, I'm so excited that soon she'll be hosting Song Exploder in my place.

• 00:53

  Okay, here we go.

• 00:55

  This episode contains explicit language.

• 00:58

  My name is Tao Nguyen of the band Tao and the Get Down, Stay Down.
