Bartees Strange talks with Emily Fox about his album, Horror. He talks about how his parents raised him on scary stories to showcase the fear and issues of being Black in America, what his opera-singing mother taught him about being a Black performer in mostly white spaces, and how he’s feeling more comfortable, more empowered, and more himself than ever through the process of making this record.
