What do Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso, Paul Gauguin (and so many other artists) have in common? They all reached the apex of their creative output while living outside their countries of birth.
An email from a listener, who also happens to be a member of indie band Trash Can Dream, inspired this week’s episode. Emma Grace Stephenson is one of two Aussie expats who make up the band that is now based in New York City. Her email sparked a discussion on how travel, and specifically living abroad, can inspire art and creativity, and why we think that is.
We close the show with their song, Out on the Sea, that touches on this topic. Find the band here.
