Twenty One Pilots: Tyler Joseph (2013)

Out of all of the interviews I have done over the years this one probably sticks out to me most. It was just after my internship at FaceCulture, we were at Lowlands festival in the Netherlands, and it sounds silly now (remember it was 2013) but we decided out of practicle reasons we'd only interview a single person from each of the bands that day. This is why Josh isn't in the interview. The music of Twenty One Pilots struck me immediately: It was creative, unpredictable, catchy, but it also had substance, which surprised me because you don't often get that combination of qualities. We had this little dark shack backstage and from the moment we started talking it was like I was talking to an old friend, I barely had to think. Tyler is incredibly eloquent and able to express in great detail his thoughts and feelings. Combined with the willingness to be open and genuine this made for a very real, honest conversation, where afterwards it felt almost like stepping out of a haze. It's been incredible to see Tyler and Josh grow out into these musical superstars and over the years I've been lucky enough to talk to them on a bunch of occasions, but this one is still my favorite. By: Robin HignellSupport the showThank you for listening!
