Art can be a grueling, sometimes ugly business. It sucks you dry, and can leave you broken and hollow. I know, because I’ve been there, and yet I’m here to give it everything I have. Sometimes a single touch is all it takes to push something over the top. It’s all part of a long & painful process of digging deep. I go places, both inside my head and outside. In the end, after searching & searching as so many in these savage professions do - I find it.

These are the stories of artists we respect and admire.

This is the Zen Perry Project.

Edward Barakauskas of TEEN MORTGAGE & TIRED ALL THE TIME

This week on the Zen Perry Project we welcome Edward Barakauskas, drummer of the Washington D.C. based bands TEEN MORTGAGE & TIRED ALL THE TIME. Besides talking the Teen Mortgage tour kicking off with a sold-out show at Union Pool in Brooklyn this Friday, Ed talks everything from how they squeezed 17 tracks onto the recently released self-titled vinyl to dropping pro-tips for taking cozy sh*ts on the road.
