The Talkhouse asked me recently to write a piece about my favorite lyrics of 2016 so far. I chose the song “Wristband” by Paul Simon, from his latest album, Stranger to Stranger. I love the way…
I was very excited to have the chance to work on “Turn It Around” with The Head and The Heart. What an awesome band! The song I co-wrote is out today along with the rest of their new album, Signs of Light.
Pleased to let you guys know that Phantogram’s single, “You Don’t Get Me High Anymore,” which I co-wrote and co-produced, is now out. Their new album…
Happy to be featured on The Secrets of Songwriting with Sodajerker via BBC World Service! The interview I did with them was super-fun for me, and I think people have found it interesting and maybe even somewhat informative :)

I’m honored to be playing with Big Star in April! I’m joining heroes, icons, and friends of mine including Jody Stephens, Mike Mills, Jeff Tweedy, Benmont Tench, Chris Stamey, Mitch Easter, the Kronos Quartet and many others.
