Attention Engineer is back, and I’m delighted to be launching the second series with a very special conversation with Corin Tucker, recorded on 18th September 2020. Hooray!

[Content warning: some friendly swears.]

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • the importance of art in helping us make sense of the massive world events we’re all living through
  • finding your own power through your voice
  • the magic of collaboration – writing songs with REM’s Peter Buck
  • why you should always watch your support bands
  • the importance of finding your purpose – are you really helping your community?
  • connection as a marker of true success
  • the effect of COVID-19 on Sleater-Kinney’s tour plans
