Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers’ Scarlett McKahey on Glory, Confidence & Touring with Pearl Jam
Description
Scarlett McKahey of Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers joins the podcast to talk about the band’s journey from forming at 14 years old to releasing their confident, anthemic second album Glory.
Scarlett shares how the band finally felt in control of their creative vision, the accidental themes of confidence and self-belief that shaped the record, and the story behind standout tracks like “Turn Around.” We also talk about the band’s Jack Black–inspired origins, growing up surrounded by Bowie, Ramones, and Arctic Monkeys, and how those influences still show up today.
The conversation also covers touring with Pearl Jam, learning how longevity really works on the road, navigating social media as a modern artist, Australian indie radio culture, and what’s coming next for Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers.
