Hi Mr. Stratton. In my mind, you're a visionary in the way you have married innovative management and marketing techniques with music so deeply rooted and informed by traditions of the past. It's a modern approach to dealing with a sort of nostalgia, that's very celebratory and ironic. The whole thing feels very Jewish. Yuge fan!
I'm wondering if when you formulated this concept of Vulfpeck, or a rhythm-section-as-band, you already had the sonic textures and visual aesthetic (which are pretty consistent) in mind. Which came first? The idea to start a band in general, or the idea for the band's "vulf-ness"? Did you have a mental image of the Vulf aesthetic prior to getting together with the rest of the guys?
