Lindsay Olsen aka Salami Rose Joe Louis is a genre traveller multi-instrumentalist female producer and a signee to Flying Lotus‘s Brainfeeder label. She recently sat down with KALX DJ, Frontal Lobe, to discuss her latest album, Lorings, and upcoming performance at the 42nd annual San Francisco Jazz Festival on June 13th at SF Jazz in the Festival Tent at 2:30pm.
Tune in on Wednesday, June 11th at 4pm to hear their conversation.
Delightfully raw and heartfelt, Lorings is a collection of songs that find SRJL displaying her vulnerability through a playful and sonically explorative lens. “I was hoping to bypass the distillation process of overthinking outside perception,” she says. “Each song feels like a significant section of my personality has been carved out and put on a platter for public consumption, which is a devastating thought [haha].”
This record she made almost entirely autonomously on her trusty Roland MV8800 workstation. For a couple of songs, SRJL invited a handful of exceptionally talented friends to collaborate: guitarist/producer Flanafi (with whom Olsen partnered for the collaborative album ‘Sarah’ in 2024); Omari Jazz (Black Decelerant); Luke Titus and Sergio Machado Plim.
