Adam Sobsey - The Interview

Send us Fan MailThis week, I sit down with writer Adam Sobsey, author of Chrissie Hynde: A Musical Biography and A Jewish Appendix, for a conversation about music, writing, creativity, and the ways songs connect us to memory, identity, and each other.Adam shares how music first entered his life, before leading him into bands, playwriting, criticism, and eventually a full-length biography of Chrissie Hynde. We talk about what makes Hynde and The Pretenders so compelling and why her later career deserves a closer listen.We also discuss Adam’s book A Jewish Appendix, his current fiction project inspired by Scott Miller of Game Theory and The Loud Family, the role of outsiders in art, and some unforgettable concert memories, from The B-52s and Fishbone to The Pretenders, and Swervedriver.The Rock-N-Roll Show Podcast is a World Highway Media production.Podcast Playlist can be found at:Apple MusicSpotifyAdams books can be found at Amazon:Chrissie Hynde: A Musical BiographyA Jewish Appendixand his essays can be found at his website, https://sobsey.com/===========================Connect with us on social media!YouTubeInstagram TikTok Facebook
