Yoni Wolf on the new album from his indie/alt hip-hop band WHY?: "There’s a real soberness to the mix process - though I mix when I’m stoned a lot of the time"

Why?.

Experimental hip hop trio Clouddead is now a long distant memory for former vocalist Yoni Wolf. When the band split after its final album, Ten (2004), Wolf immediately went solo, fronting the alternative indie rock band WHY? alongside brother and production partner Josiah Wolf and multi-instrumentalists Doug McDiarmid and Matt Meldon. 

20 years later and WHY? have just released their eighth album, with Wolf picking at the scabs of a devastating relationship breakup in search of fertile creative ground. Known for his idiosyncratic approach to songwriting and blunt emotional openness, The Well I Fell Into, ironically, finds WHY? at their most poignant, intentional and commercially aware.
