  • Distracting background tracks

    Great stories, and I love the idea for this podcast, but there is hardly any moment where there isn't a distracting background track competing with the person talking.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Secretly Weekly - Episode 10
Q: Can you think back to that and just talk about that a little bit, like remembering maybe the moment it became the version that we know?
Dana describes how the slower, original version was rewritten after meeting Sam, riff ideas were tested, and the seven-second riff became the defining element that changed the song's direction, leading to the version fans recognize today.
Secretly Frequencies - Eaves Wilder
Q: What's been your experience with live performance and evolving comfort on stage?
I initially dreaded live performance but grew to love it with a strong band and a clear live vision; I write with live performance in mind and enjoy how crowds shift across venues and countries.
Secretly Frequencies - Eaves Wilder
Q: Did the lockdown period accelerate your career, and would things have happened as quickly without it?
lockdown gave me the space to teach myself production and instrument skills, which otherwise would have taken longer; it's hard to say if it would have happened as fast, but it undeniably turbocharged my development.
Secretly Frequencies - Eaves Wilder
Q: How did your ADHD influence your writing and studio workflow?
Diagnosed late but now understood as a superpower, ADHD drives my need for high-pace, hooky ideas and allows me to hyper-focus when I run or do intense, repetitive tasks; I craft songs that keep my attention and stay genuinely engaging.
Secretly Frequencies - Eaves Wilder
Q: What were your experiences during the recording process and how did you manage the creative leap to such a big production?
I relied on a trusted collaborator in Andy Savers, recorded most parts in the shed, and then re-recorded in his studio to balance control with external input, which helped me push through the vulnerability of the material.
