Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I only want you to have some fun–

And fun we had during this conversation with author, podcaster, and all-around nice-guy James Campion!

James recently released his brand-new book “Revolution: Prince, the Band, the Era” chronicling the chaotic rise and strange lore surrounding Prince and his iconic group.

Don’t let his job description fool you, this is one of the most engaging musical conversations we have ever had on this podcast.

We talk about Prince a lot. We also talk about writing a lot. We delve into Counting Crows, Warren Zevon, the Beatles and more!

We discuss the Underwater Sunshine Podcast featuring Adam Duritz, and the independent music festival (aptly titled Underwater Sunshine Fest) that it spawned.

We talk about humanity. 

You don’t want to miss this episode.
