Description
Michael Clifford of 5 Seconds o fSummer catches up with Kyle Meredith to dig into Side Quest, his solo album born out of becoming a dad and rediscovering that childlike sense of curiosity. Clifford talks about rewriting songs to better reflect his new phase in life, how parenting inspired the unpredictable structures of tracks like “Eclipse,” and why he intentionally left the drums off “KMFA.” He also opens up about the vulnerability of going solo after years with the band, fourth wall-breaking lyrics, and the push to do something that feels brand new instead of nostalgic. It’s an honest look at finding your own voice while still loving where you came from.
