Show Notes

THE REID BROTHERS GO ACOUSTIC! Jonathan Snyder from The Lollygags joins us to discuss the TJAMC’s fifth album. Does every acoustic guitar in the nineties mean you’re auditioning for MTV’s “Unplugged”? Is it more complicated to be in a band with your sibling or your ex? Should you write your songs when you’re feeling sad and then wait till you’re feeling better to record them? Is 17 too many tracks no matter how short they are? Which one is Jesus and which one is Mary? Is there a difference between Irish drunk and Scottish drunk? Join us as we attempt to glean every possible songwriting lesson from this album on Detours and Outliers.
