It's 2023 and we're still truckin'. This time my guest is Jeremy Hurewitz who is better known by the name under which he releases his beautiful music, "rootless". rootless music is centered on Hurewitz's guitar but contains a wide array of collaborations and sounds. We get into the varying nature of the rootless albums, the music that inspires and influences Hurewitz and so much more in our chat. Also in this episode, I pay tribute two great artists who recently passed, David Crosby and Tom Verlaine.
The most recent rootless release is entitled "What The Truth Leaves Out" and is available on cassette via Feeding Tube Records (FeedingTubeRecords.com). You can also find that and many more releases digitally at rootless.bandcamp.com.
As mentioned in my tribute to the late Tom Verlaine, here is a link to Patti Smith's remembrance of her friend as published by the New Yorker. "He Was Tom Verlaine"
