Hello friends! Ugandan born singer-songwriter, Jon Muq is my guest for episode 1389! His debut album, Flying Away, produced by Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys comes out on May 31st on Easy Eye Sound. He'll be heading out on tour with Mavis Staples in Europe in June, but he'll be playing some release shows around Texas before he goes. See him Thursday, June 6th at The Mucky Duck in Houston, and Friday, June 7th at The '04 Center in Austin. Go to jonmuq.com for a full tour schedule, music, videos and more. We have a great conversation about growing up in Uganda, hearing the magic of "We Are The World", how following sound has guided his life, working on a cruise ship, coming to America, songwriting, making Flying Away, opening for Billy Joel in England, and much more. I had a great time getting to know Jon. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
