Neon Sunset: Lizzy Goodman
Author Lizzy Goodman joins Annaliese to speak about her scintillating alt-rock oral history Meet Me In The Bathroom, “the last romantic age of rock’n’roll" and the accompanying documentary. The pair look back at early-00s NYC, and discuss what it was about that moment and that city that kick-started a worldwide indie rock revival. Goodman reflects on her time working in a restaurant with The Strokes' Nick Valensi and how his band almost single-handedly became the catalyst for the rebirth of NYC's music scene, from which so many artists - including Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and LCD Soundsystem - were born.
