NYC singer-songwriter and jazz performer Nick Cesares joins Literally Heinous to talk about how mentorship from Phil Collins (yes, Tarzan Phil Collins) and reality TV have shaped his journey as a musician.
We talk about the songwriting and production process, reminisce about the show where we first met, and swap stories about life in NYC. I make my case for why I have every right to judge new transplants—even though I’m one myself—and we debate whether complaining to public offices makes you a Karen.
His latest single “Lavish” is out now and you can catch him live on 3/27 performing with City Love in Brooklyn
