The Noisy Interview

TThis week, Sara Mae joins Absent Sounds for a track-by-track dive into the deluxe edition of their debut album: The Secret Ingredient Is Even More Meat. Under The Noisy, Sara Mae Henke (they/them) makes music for closing chapters that also loudly opens a door. We talk about the pipeline between poetry and songwriting, from the volta, to queer wordplay and the love-soaked specificity of "Ballerino." Nothing feels haphazardly thrown. Above all else, the record is a beautiful capsule of love that finds new life after someone is "gone." Sara Mae is a poet, a chapbook-maker, and so much more in-between.
