Interview with Tony Green

Here is an intriguing interview that I have been hoping to get around to for many years. Tony is a great performer from New Orleans. He is a lone wolf of sorts- a frontman in a city of side musicians. He really delivers too. I first heard him in the unbelievably unique band from the early 90s, The Frank Spencer Quartet. He did much of note before that and since. Currently he has renewed energy for some great projects he describes here, like The Gutter Broithers. There are recordings in the works.

This interview goes through his early start and working in London after that, how he came there, how he returned, his visions in music and his collaborations. It’s well worth the listen and you might find out about some new music you knew nothing about.

Interview with Cranston Clements and Phil Degruy

Cranston Clements

Phil Degruy

Here is a long conversation with the live and wild minds of two venerable guitarists of New Orleans. They have singular approaches to subversive e comedy and guitar playing and even the design of their guitars. Phil Degruy has mostly been a solo player and it is observed across the world what level of innovative creativity he has brought to the instrument. Cranston is the epitome of the working musician, but he is also an indefatigable tinkerer with gear and makes everyone he works with sound great…because he does.
