Perfume Genius joins host Raina Douris

Mike Hadreas is Perfume Genius – and he’s got a new album called Set My Heart On Fire Immediately. The record was influenced by a collaborative dance piece that he worked on after his latest album in 2017, in addition to his own attempts to find himself in other worlds. On this edition of the World Café, Perfume Genius discusses his adventures exploring the occult as a kid and how he has evolved within the past couple of years. Plus, some live performances from the new album.
