Encore: Perfume Genius joins host Raina Douris

Mike Hadreas makes music as Perfume Genius. Today, we’ll hear about his belief that everyone has the ability to profoundly shift who they are – and how he himself has evolved over the last couple years. One recent transformation came through a dance piece he created, and it influenced his 2020 album Set My Heart on Fire Immediately. Perfume Genius talks with host Raina Douris and performs some of his new music live.
