Ken Stringfellow

Season 2, Episode 1,   May 02, 2019, 11:50 AM

We're back with a new series and a (very slightly) different episode format. 

Our main guest here is the musician Ken Stringfellow. Ken knew Elliott during the '90s and '00s, and was part of a project called the Color Bars Experience which toured France playing Figure 8 backed by a chamber orchestra. 

After Ken talks us through his favourite song pick, we take a closer look at Elliott's first studio album, Roman Candle. We hear from podcast listener Kayla Bolton about why No Name #1 is her #1, before William Todd Schultz - the author of Elliott Smith biography Torment Saint - and Denny Swofford, of Cavity Search Records, discuss the legacy of the record. 

We'll be doing more of these features over the course of this second season, so do let us know how you're finding them.
