Earlier this month it became a lot easier to see Billy Eilish and Phineas in concert, well at least in concert at the movie theater. Along with filmmaker James Cameron, Eilish produced and directed the new concert film Hit Me Hard and Soft, The Tour.

Hit Me Hard and Soft is also the name of their 2024 album, and its release was the occasion for the interview we were about to hear with Eilish and her brother Phineas.
