Noah (The Pretty Flowers)

SPB: What do you listen to in the van?   

Noah: We started doing a band-approved music playlist on Spotify this year called Sounds from a Sony Sports Walkman and this SPB question made us realize we need to update it for Feb. January's playlist should give your readers a good idea of our varied musical tastes--along with some Pretty Flowers album tracks--and can be found here. For long stretches in the van, it's less music-oriented: Sean and I are both ride-or-die Howard Stern Show fans, so any time we have a captive audience to try to convert to the show, we take advantage of it. Jake listens to a lot of Pod Save America podcast, which we all like. Sam has been on a Game of Thrones audiobook kick lately, which is tolerated by some.
