Q: The Podcast From Cbc Radio

Rachel Bobbitt is a Nova Scotian singer-songwriter who currently lives in Toronto, makes music in Los Angeles, and tours all around with bands like Men I Trust and Blonde Redhead — but her debut album is a homecoming of sorts. It’s called "Swimming Towards the Sand” and it takes a sweeping and introspective look at the emotional landscape of the place where she grew up. Rachel joins guest host Talia Schlanger to talk about the album and her journey as a vocalist. Plus, she sets up a song off her new record.
