"The best thing is that for the longest time in Saskatoon, people would be like 'So, how's the band?' and we'd be like 'Oh, we've been touring,' or whatever," says Sheepdogs bassist Leot Hanson. "Now it's like 'I'm in Rolling Stone, that's what I'm doing!"

"I remember when I first came here, I felt like 'Oh, there's other people like me,'" Broussard says, reflecting on her move to Manhattan as a teenager. "When I came here, I felt like I belonged somewhere because there's all these crazy people doing crazy stuff."
