This week’s guest is Curt Bisquera, AKA Kirkee B. He’s played with so many great artists, such as Elton John, Mick Jagger, Tom Petty, Sarah Mclaughlin, Lana Del Ray, and Johnny Cash, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. His pocket is deeeeeep, and his stories are endless. This episode is Kirkee B’s SECOND appearance on the show; I had him on a few years back to discuss five defining moments in his recording career, but this time he discusses the five records that helped shape him to be one of the GO-TO sessions players in LA. I love him. He’s so fun. I hope you enjoy my chat with the one and only Curt Bisquera.
