Happy election day! John Brodeur, acclaimed Brooklyn artist who plays under the name, Bird Streets is my guest for episode 1222! His second album, Lagoon (Sparkle Plenty/Deko), an album about separation, rumination, regret, and recurrence, that travels the darker passages of the heart and mind in search of something resembling clarity is available now wherever you stream or download music. Go to birdstreetsmusic.com for music show dates and more. John and I have a great conversation about the magic of power-pop and some of our favorite bands, growing up in Albany, NY, making the first Bird Streets record with Jason Falkner (Jellyfish, The Grays), working on Lagoon with Pat Sansone (Wilco), Michael Lockwood (Aimee Mann, Fiona Apple), Aimee Mann, Jody Stephens (Big Star) and many more, writing about his divorce and getting sober and much more! I had a great time getting to know John. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
