Chris Shiflett's music career has been nothing short of incredible. Having spent the past few decades as the Foo Fighters' lead guitarist (and as a member of legendary punk rock band No Use For A Name before that), Chris could've easily kicked back done anything OTHER than play music in his free time. The songwriter and musician in him, however, would NEVER let that happen. In this episode, Chris details the writing and recording of his 2017 fan favorite single, "West Coast Town".
