We’re back with an all-new Click Vortex, featuring record store owner, local business advocate, and shoegaze drummer Kimber Lanning. With her underground-centric shop Stinkweeds and Local First Arizona, she’s dedicated to telling under-discussed stories. Joining Sam and Jason in the 850 Lincoln loft studio, she discusses record store life, her beloved indie rock venue Modified Arts, and her crucial ’90s band Half String and some legendary shows they opened for–including a run-in with infamous Gallagher bros and their and Oasis. Plus, she weighs in on Sam and Jason’s clicks, including Ben Folds Five, Suede, Elastica, dream pop vs. shoegaze, AR Kane, Tim and Jeff Buckley, This Mortal Coil, and lots more.
