High School Press Roundup

Added 2022-09-24 15:00:02 +0000 UTC

Good morning! How wonderful to have such talent in the studio this week! What a fun one! I don't always go back and watch full shows but this one got me hooked in - Loved how funny and quick Eric was, and loved how down to earth and easy to hang with Mark was... Doug and Vic were on fire. Good calls, what more do you want?

I did a lot of press for High School and I know a lot of it gets lost in the shuffle, so I thought I'd pick my favorite press moments from the cycle and put it all in one place... a few pieces to read and a few pieces to listen to...

Steve Hyden is one of my favorite music writers. He's a good dude, who used to live with Mark Proksch way back in the day... and I loved talking to him.

Justin spent a day with me, coming in and observing office hours and then going on a few errands and then we had lunch... A good way to get me to open up....

Raina is the best - Just a really smart and cool person and I'm grateful that I have someone in this position in my corner being and advocate for my music. Great chat on a pretty hectic day, getting ready for the big Philly show. I was run ragged but she made me feel at home and made for a good conversation:

Who's better on a saturday morning than Scott Simon? He was kind and insightful and seemed to be genuine in his feelings about the record.

I'm dipping into the jam world! Alex really loved the record and seemed to connect with it deeply - he also really knew the musical references and players involved so we got to talk more specifically about the production process.

I pulled the full band version of "Nothing" for your personal files. Really dig how this one sounds. Enjoy!
