Alwyn Robinson: The Sound of “Marshall”

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with drummer, singer, and songwriter Alwyn Robinson, whose story travels from East Texas to Boulder, Colorado, and now to Brooklyn, New York.You may know Alwyn from his work with Leftover Salmon or his performances with Billy Strings, but now he’s stepping forward with a new solo album called Marshall, out Friday, November 14. The record is a beautiful reflection of what Americana means to him, rooted, soulful, and full of texture.We discuss the importance of process, navigating grief and self-care, learning to be still, and how these inner lessons have shaped his growth as both a musician and a person. We also get into the making of Marshall, his collaboration with Bridget Carney (Lake Street Dive) and Andrew Ibanez, and how he’s learning to find his own voice as a frontman.Music from the Episode:Carrying On (Alwyn Robinson)Nose on the Grindstone (Alwyn Robinson)Gentle on My Mind (Alwyn Robinson)Thank you for listening.
