About this episode
Craig Finn interviews Rhett Miller about his new solo record and their shared experiences.
Rhett Miller is my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. The Old 97s frontman has a cool new solo record A Lifetime of Riding by Night, which came out in October. We talked about that as well as remembering lyrics, teaching songwriting, persistence, The Kingston Trio, vocal surgery, Strangeways Here We Come, chain wallets, our mutual trip to Joshua Tree in 2012 and the time we met at a CMJ panel. I’ve known Rhett a long time now and really enjoy speaking to him, this was a great conversation. Listen and subscribe!
