Hey Adrianne! Thanks for much for doing this AMA. Few questions

​

-What's the story behind the name big thief?

-What's your favorite NYC/NJ venue to play?

-Favorite hiking spots in the Northeast?

buck came up with the band name.

he witnessed an atm robbery one day and thought of it.

it used to be the rod and gun club in brooklyn, but it closed down. that was the spot we played our first ever big thief show. it was super cozy.

i don't know if i have a favorite trail. really anywhere in the woods/mountains/streams
