During a recent visit to The Current studio, the band performed a set of songs (to be published on this website on Wednesday, Oct. 23), after which lead vocalist Wes Leavins sat down for a conversation with Jill Riley.

In a fun and candid conversation, Leavins talks about his Texas roots and what drew him to Chicago, where Brigitte Calls Me Baby are based. Leavins also sheds light on the origins of the band’s name, and how they came to work with producer extraordinaire Dave Cobb. Watch and listen to the interview above.
