Mark Erelli and Lay Your Darkness Down
During a performance in summer 2020, Mark Erelli looked down at his guitar neck and couldn’t believe what he saw. Or rather, what he couldn’t see: his fingers on the frets. Soon after, a diagnosis of Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) would bring some answers, but it also yielded new questions. Does diminished eyesight correlate with lesser insight? Does your songwriting change when your perception of the world around you changes? These questions, and Erelli’s hunt for creative agency, are at the heart of his new album Lay Your Darkness Down.
Mark stops by to share a bit about his early RP journey and talk to John about his new album. Although his 13th solo record, Mark explains why Lay Your Darkness Down is the first record he felt like he needed to make in this new season of life. Mark and John discuss lyrical comprehension, Mark’s musical influences and play snippets from Marks new record.
