What’s the weirdest place you have slept on tour?

TH: I’ve slept in tents, in the woods, on a couch in an unheated room in Boston in the winter, in a Prius, at the bottom of the sea.

JS: I slept on a mattress on the floor in a rat-infested basement once, and a rat crawled across my foot when I got up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night.

Weirdest show you have played?

We’ve played a few shows that were very well funded and intricately produced but for some reason had literally no attendees. Those were haunted events. Very faux Fyre Fest.

Celebrity moments–any celebs come to a show? Give us the hot goss!

JS: When I was little, Pamela Anderson was in the audience at my ballet recital.

TH: I played a festival in Tennessee with Mykki Blanco, and while we were introducing ourselves, my fake tooth fell out as I was responding to her. I just pretended like it was fine, meanwhile the tooth was literally rolling around in my mouth.

What’s the best hidden gem you’ve discovered on tour?

JS: Whenever I travel, I want to hit up a good thrift store and a cute cafe. Pretty much every thrift store I’ve been to outside of a major city is golden.

TH: When I was touring Puerto Rico, we had some friends working with El Departamento De La Comida. For brown girls with dietary restrictions, it was really cool to experience what they were doing with organic vegan food. Seeing El Yunque was one of the most magical, stunning experiences. I never wanted to leave that spot.

What’s a tour memory that was scary or bad in the moment, but you can laugh about now?

JS: Like a classic California girl, I booked an entire East Coast tour via greyhound during the dead of winter. I was so cold waiting for these buses in the snow, and I felt so foolish.

TH: Driving through Mississippi, we had never been, the directions suddenly took us off the freeway through a rural area with lots of churches and crosses everywhere. We were terrified, like holding each other scared, until we realized it was a mostly black community and we were so so sooo relieved. *collective exhale*

I feel like most bands have a weird inside joke - what’s one that you or your band have together?

We have too many inside jokes to count. We run on them. One of our seminal jokes is maintaining the mystery of which of us is currently posting our instagram stories. Everyone always thinks they know who is posting what, but we’ll never tell!
