Brian Aubert, frontman of the beloved alt-rock band Silversun Pickups, joins Howie for a conversation that spans the physical and the metaphysical. From crafting songs that come to him fully formed in his head to the disorientation of a poorly timed playlist mid-run, Brian shares how movement — whether on stage, in the studio, or on the streets of LA — plays a pivotal role in his creative life.
We talk about tour life, the influence of his sister’s love for running, meditation before shows, David Lynch, ancestral motion, and why finding the right pace — in running, music, or even just adulthood — is everything.
This is a raw and honest look at what it means to keep showing up, even when the payoff isn’t immediate. A reminder that sometimes the point isn’t to feel good — it’s just to feel something.
