Jammerzine Exclusive: An Interview with Dar.Ra

Dar.Ra is a musician/artist with many talents. That is totally evident on his new EP titled ‘Dirty Lil Secrets‘. The diversity is clearly evident in the 4 tracks, and that’s just four tracks. What attracted Dar. Ra, to me, was the intricate detail within his tracks and how he weaves his influences and creativity of his songwriting with the techniques of his musicianship.

Today we talk to Dar about these things as well as his beginnings, his time spent on major labels, the differences between being part of a band and going solo as well as the future and where he is steering it. Enjoy!
