By Zach Leonard You probably know him from Tim and Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job! as the otherworldly puppeteer who appears in many short sketches, but David Liebe Hart has a lot of other projects going on - from performing as a street musician to selling paintings and sketches of images his fans request, he’s got a lot on his plate. When his new album, Astronaut, was coming out last month, I got a chance to interview him prior to the release about both his life and music. It lasted for a while - between rants about his hardships, relationships that didn’t pan out, and even a brief history lesson on many of the alien species he sings about in songs both for TEAS:GJ!, David Liebe Hart never ran out of things to say. 12
NF: Hey David, this is Zach Leonard. I’m calling about the interview we arranged. DLH: Yes! It’s going to have to run a little bit short because I just got back from the dentist to get some teeth pulled and my mouth is all numbed up. (Nevertheless, the entire interview lasted over an hour. Here are some of the highlights from this long, long conversation...)
