Ep. #1124: Lambchop

Kurt Wagner from Lambchop is here to discuss Punching the Clown, not working from home, his close collaborators Ryan Olson and Andrew Broder and the inclusion of drops, producer tags, and dramatic, powerful choral singers, which might surprise some listeners and why surprises are a great thing, why he appreciates happenstance noises and thoughts making it onto his recordings, what prompted his recent interest in lined out singing and how Justin Vernon of Bon Iver wound up playing banjo on this record, why the film Punching the Clown resonated with him so much, pondering Larry David, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.
