Friends With Deficits

"A Sea of Pink Circles" - Kathy McCarty and Face Blindness


Listen Later

In this episode, Austin music legend Kathy McCarty discusses how she came face to face with face blindness (prosopagnosia). How is this well-recognized singer-songwriter, musician and artist unable to recognize faces, even those closest to her?

We talk about coping strategies, being the world’s best busboy, mean Southern women, South Park, and of course, music.

Also featured is a sampling of Kathy’s musical career over the decades, including her influential Austin rock band Glass Eye, and her solo recordings “Dead Dog’s Eyeball” and “Another Day in the Sun”. For more on that, check out:
