Before they’re selling out venues—before they’re playlist darlings—you’ll find them here. The Underknown captures artists at that crucial moment: after they’ve found their voice, but before everyone else discovers them. Host Yon Perullo sits down with emerging musicians for conversations that dig beyond the music into the journey, struggles, and moments of revelation that shaped them. It’s like those deep-dive interviews famous artists get, except we’re having them now—at the beginning of their story. Raw. Real. Just before the world catches on.
