I like artists that do a lot of different things.
I like albums that go to a lot of different places.”
Says Keery, “I love that part of the process.
He’d be doing all these chores.”

“I’ve wanted to do this for a really long time,” he says.

That and his pit stop at Coachella.
“It’ll be a huge memory, I’m sure,” he says of the festival.
