That's How I Remember It

Kathleen Edwards is my guest on this very special episode of That’s How I Remember It. We were on tour together in September in Europe, and this was recorded live in front of an audience in Odense Denmark at the wonderful Nashville Nights festival before Kathleen and I also performed a show where we traded songs back and forth. On this podcast we talked about creating worlds where you’d want to live in songs, Whitney Houston, playing violin, John Mellencamp, clubbing in South Korea, Greggs sausage rolls, whether living in Florida has affected her songwriting, and so much more. I loved touring with Kathleen and loved talking to her here. Enjoy, listen and subscribe!  This episode is brought to you by DistroKid.

Katy Kirby is my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. Her record Blue Raspberry came out in early 2024 and it’s one my absolute favorites from this year. We talked about making that record and also typing lyrics on an old school typewriter, “Hard Drive” by Evan Dando, worship chords, playing bass in a church band at 13 years old, 4 Loko, and much more.

Billy Bragg is a hero of mine and also my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. He’s a fantastic songwriter, incredible performer, outspoken activist and so much more. We talked about him teaching songwriting to hospice patients, songwriting allowing us to say things we can’t always say, Johnny Marr playing on “Greetings from the New Brunette”, his portable PA system The Portastack, his first US shows, and how he has great faith in the American people. A thrill for me to have Billy here, it was a great talk. Listen and subscribe. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid.

Eef Barzelay of Clem Snide is my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. I’ve known Eef a bit for a long time but never had this long of a conversation with him, which I loved. He’s just made a fantastic new record called Oh Smokey and we talked about that, resisting writing things down, the mystique of Led Zeppelin, bands not breaking up anymore, making his record with Josh Kaufman, God, and death, and the last time we hung out.
