In a recently released video interview, Jack Stratton of Vulfpeck sat down with interviewer Allegra Rosenberg for a “State of the Vulf Union” address. The interview starts off with the progress the band has made over the past year or so, including their meteoric rise in popularity over recent months and how that affects their live show. While the pair discusses a number of topics, ranging from the more administrative, behind-the-scenes workings of Vulfpeck to the way the group approaches both live performances, collaborations, and the studio, one of the biggest takeaways from the interview is Stratton’s hints about what to expect from Vulfpeck’s upcoming studio effort due out in the fall.
