They open up with an excerpt from Davia’s poem “Bridgewalk” based on a dream she had where she was visited by her late grandmother. Listen in to hear Allison and Davia discuss the similarities of their relationships with their grandmothers, their experiences with mourning, and how they use music as a form of self-expression.
