Summary
John Gallagher Jr. talks with Kyle Meredith about his new EP Almost Okay , finding the spark again after the heartbreak of Swept Away closing on Broadway, and why his music has become more alive the longer he’s been doing it. He gets into the chaos behind “Tough Spit,” the Paul Westerberg spirit running through “All This Changing,” and how “Never Leave” ended up being one of those songs you immediately start sending to friends. There’s also a little trip into the Flanaverse with Mike Flanagan’s new Exorcist movie, because John’s creative tides are pulling in every direction at once, and lucky us.
