This is a special episode celebrating the music of the late Justin Townes Earle. Nick and Joe sat down to discuss the great career of the musician who just passed earlier this month. Justin was a great songwriter in the midst of a stellar career. 

We're sad that we won't see more art coming from Justin, but lucky we have what we have.

RIP Justin, you'll be missed.

Bright Eyes just released an album for the first time in 9 years?!?

You bet! If you're a big fan of the band, then you'll know exactly where we left off and the storied history of the group...if you're not, you might need a little (or not so little) refresher on their history! Not to worry, this episode is a crash course on some of the best songs they've released from 1999 to 2011, which will catch you up for their latest album 'Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was'...

Nick took the time to sit down and document his favorites from 'a Perfect Sonnet' to 'Poison Oak' to 'One for You, One for Me'...enjoy.

Gillian Welch has blessed us with a LONG lost collection of songs called 'Boots No. 2: The Long Lost Songs, Vol. 1' - this is the first of 3 volumes coming this year which were recorded back in 2002.

These were written and recorded in one weekend between her and David Rawlings, and in spite of the speed, they're still a strong example of excellent songwriting. Today's episode chronicles the story and a few favorites from Vol. 1!

If you hear the name 'Cecilia' there's a good chance you might think of the Simon & Garfunkel song by the same name...

But who is she and why was Paul Simon obsessed with her??

This story starts with the Barr Brothers song 'Saint Cecilia' to find out who she was!
