On April 27th 2010, France’s Tahiti Boy and The Palmtree Family did a rare performance in Los Angeles at The Echo opening up for Juliette Lewis’s new solo project. Tahiti Boy himself (aka David Sztanke), the main force behind the band, took some time to sit down with mxdwn’s Colette Claire to do a video interview, filmed outside of The Echo in front of a local cafe. Sztanke discussed everything from the band working with members of Os Mutantes to how exciting it is for them to come to Los Angeles for the first time.
