![]() ![]() So… and when I talk about sharing music, it's not so much that I need an audience giving me immediate feedback in front of me physically. Except when I go on tour, that's totally out of the norm for me to be getting out like that and being among people, it's not the norm for me. It was just like, oh, okay, I'll keep doing what I've been doing, basically being locked down, which is my life pretty much. I don't have a partner or children and I live a pretty isolated life, and so lockdown was not difficult for me. ![]() Well, I have to say that the enforced isolation was kind of just a continuation of my normal life. So, I'm wondering, memories of Covid are still pretty raw, that time gap…what was that like for you as both somebody that wants to get their music out to live performance, but also maybe having to spend time with yourself and having more latitude to create? So having said that, also a lot of part of your writing in that discussion was about music, really having to get out in the world and be listened to and kind of appreciated by a listener and that feedback loop you have with the crowd when you're performing. I thought that was one of the most beautiful articulations of what it feels both to make and listen to music. It’s very moving and there was a really beautiful passage, I have to find it…. One is just how vulnerable you are in that book and how raw you are and how authentically you talk about how much music means to you. I was rereading your memoir ( When I Grow Up), which I loved, and I was listening to the Lived Through That podcast the other day, which recapped a lot of that experience. It's good to have you back and I don’t know that we’ve ever seen you solo. I don't know, because it has been such a long time. (The last concert mention I found was 1998 at Sudsy Malone’s, but that seems impossible.) ![]() I was trying to recall when the last time you came through here, feels like it's been a while. I’m really excited to see you coming back to our area. “Good manners are never a waste of time.” It's like, what was that one Coen's brothers' movie… Miller's Crossing. Wow, you are super punctual! That's not very rock and roll. This interview has been edited for length and clarity.
