In this episode, Vielka sits down with Einar Solberg—co-founder, lead vocalist, and keyboardist of Leprous—to explore the emotional and psychological dimensions of singing. They discuss how Einar balances control and surrender in performance, views emotion as more important than technical showmanship, and finds creative freedom through imperfection and intuition.
He shares his evolution from teenage punk and rap fan to world-class progressive metal artist, shaped by lessons from his opera-singer mother, and explains his approach to recording, stamina, and mindset on tour. Together, they unpack the art of embracing mistakes, rejecting perfectionism, and treating the voice like both a muscle and a vessel for raw expression.
