Summary
The Honey Island Swamp Band singer, guitar and mandolin player, songwriter, and frontman spent years touring and recording with blue-eyed soul man Eric Lindell, appearing on the Conan O'Brien show along the way. His latest project, the RiverBenders with Jake Eckert, Myles Weeks, and Russ Broussard, takes a more acoustic, back-porch approach. Tonight Aaron, a former newspaper reporter, has the tables turned as he gets a good grilling from the Troubled Men. Topics include skateboarding, a water main break, Mardi Gras parades, a snowstorm, a Sonny Landreth and the Iguanas tour, Robert Duvall RIP, Jesse Jackson RIP, Robert Carradine RIP, the Winter Olympics, snow skiing, Washington and Lee University, a Camaro, Pensacola, guitar lessons, poetry, print journalism, moving to New Orleans, teaching English, interviewing Galactic, Theryl DeClouet, Theresa Andersson, playing bass, Robert Maché, Amanda Shaw, Irene Sage, Chris Mulé, a San Francisco exile, the Boom Boom Room, Sam Price, Garland Paul, the Record Plant, Susan Cowsill, the pandemic, and much more.
