Show Notes

This episode combines a few tour stories AND a Check-In with Mikael Jorgensen, keyboardist of Wilco. It all starts off with some words for the recently passed Chick Corea. Next we hear Mikael's views on collaboration, the importance of making a mess in songwriting and why he loves improvisation, even if it's in "slow motion" due to a pandemic. He also tells us what it's like to do a 12 day tour with a song in the set that he never knew how to play. We learn his threshold on drinking absinthe and Joe and Mikael exchange some ridiculous humble brags on their Bridge School Benefit experiences. All this and a new tune from Mikael's project Expandards. Music by Expandards, Palm Fronds Nobukazu Takemura, and Joe Plummer.
