Rough Trade Below, the record store and venue tucked inside Rockefeller Center, was the spot for the launch of Pitchfork’s new zine on French pop singer Oklou. The zine is available to purchase at Rough Trade, and it complements the new cover story “Oklou’s Endless Summer.”
After everyone took their seats (or crowded in the back), complementary zines in hand, Head of Editorial Content Mano Sundaresan interviewed Oklou on stage to the crowd of 150 people. Oklou spoke about balancing life on tour with being a new mother, the power of minimalism on her breakout record, choke enough, and her online music influences. She also previewed and discussed music from the imminent deluxe edition, including her acoustic cover of “The fish song,” by hyperpop favorite underscores. The interview was recorded and will be up on Pitchfork’s YouTube channel soon.
After the interview, a long line of fans asked Oklou more questions, and then Oklou held a meet-and-greet, signing zines and records. Check out photos from the event below.
