Chaz Bundick, or Toro Y Moi as he is better known, spoke with Yours Truly in an informal interview that took place at Yes Press, a screen printing studio in Oakland. Bundick’s relatable responses reference the importance of pursuing creative passions, whether it be noting how he used to draw on reciept paper in between lunch time rushes at Chick-fil-A or staying true to his creative integrity in all of his artistic projects.
