Briefly

Jena Malone on Flowers for Men, Sci-Fi Folk, and the Duffer Brothers' The Boroughs: Podcast
""It's funny, art as commerce is very much like 'what have you done lately,' but I don't think that's true. I never stopped writing. I had probably like 600 recordings.""
""It's so wildly immersive. You're constantly pulling from your best self and rearranging yourself.""
""I have a deep desire to unearth new myths in the world. The ones I inherited aren't carrying me where I want to go.""
""I didn't realize how much I had been craving narratives that invite the whole family in that don't talk down.""
Jena Malone has released her album Flowers for Men after a decade, describing it as 'sci-fi folk.' The album is influenced by her experiences as a mother and her extensive songwriting. Malone emphasizes that parenthood redirected her creativity rather than stifling it. She seeks to explore new myths through her music, moving away from traditional narratives. Additionally, her upcoming series The Boroughs, created by the Duffer Brothers, aims to present family-friendly narratives that engage without condescension, featuring themes of mystery and mortality.
