Elliott Brood: not a person, not bluegrass Tuesday, December 16, 2008

It took a little longer than I'd hoped, but my recent interview with Elliott Brood is online now at Northwest CanCon.

The guys were great to talk to ... and so the interview went longer than usual. With that, and the fact that we had to move from one room to another part way through, I broke the interview up into three parts for your listening convenience (if you download the podcast on iTunes you get one file with all three parts).

Next up is Issa (formerly known as Jane Siberry), who made a quick stop in Portland last week to deliver her new album to fans. Look for that podcast before the end of the year.
