Interviews (Text & Audio)

Read:

Prepared Guitar – March 14, 2014  A wide-ranging chat with one of the finest resources for unconventional guitar (and music in general) around, with site curator Miguel Copon.

Guitar Moderne – October 6, 2012  A superb webzine for left-of-center guitar interests, run by Michael Ross. This talk covers my background, interests, and lots of technical details/”behind the scenes” information.

headphonaught – July 2012  Thomas Mathie posits seven questions about music, philosophy, community, and ego.

guitar-muse.com – June 2012  An in-depth discussion with Scott Collins, a fabulous guitarist, teacher, and writer.  Many topics are covered, including the twin 2012 releases, my use of live looping (and/or the conspicuous absence thereof), and guitar teaching.

This Is My Method – Fall 2004  This Is My Method was a print ‘zine that ran in the mid-2000’s. Mike Corwin, the man behind TIIM, is a great guy and very talented musician, as well as a fellow CalArts alum. He invited me to do the interview after catching a gig I played around town.

Sea of Tranquility – June 27, 2004  Jedd Beaudoin is a great writer and interviewer with a huge spectrum of musical knowledge.  I was very happy to chat with him about a variety of subjects, including my first two CDs.

None For You Dear – Summer/Fall 2000  Rich Pike is a music business veteran, severe music fanatic, and superb guy who ran a webzine called None For You Dear in the early 2000’s. He covered me in one of NFYD’s “Indie Spotlight” columns; it was the first real interview I ever did, about half a year after Disruption Theory was released.
