Ep. 127: Ky Vöss | Artist Interview
Ky Vöss is a producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. This week she joins the podcast to tell her story and talk about overcoming some insane obstacles in life to get to the point of making a career out of being an independent artist. Her song Masochism was my Spotify 2021 top song, so it was truly an honor to have her on this week!
