Podcast 473: Joe Henry & Blake Mills (Live from the 2024 Fretboard Summit)

This week, we're sharing one of the highlights from our 2024 Fretboard Summit: Joe Henry in conversation with Blake Mills.

During their chat, these two acclaimed producers and singer-songwriters discuss working with legacy artists (Blake has famously worked with Joni Mitchell; while Joe has worked with everyone from Joan Baez to Solomon Burke), the importance of a beginner's mindset in the studio, the magic of Jim Keltner, honoring the song, and so much more.

It was one of many unforgettable Fretboard Summit 2024 sessions. We hope you love it.

Recorded August 24, 2024.
