Jack Johnson on Meet the Moonlight, Working with Blake Mills, and 20 Years of Brushfire Fairytales

Jack Johnson catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about Meet the Moonlight, an album that finds Jack reflecting the darkness of the past few years through the optimistic filter that he’s known for.  The singer-songwriter discusses working with Blake Mills, writing as a reaction, digging into Greg Brown and JJ Cale’s catalog, and singing the bass line from Zepplin’s "Dazed and Confused" through a beer bottle. Johnson also tells us about his new Learning Farm that focuses on environmental education, as well as his latest green initiative with this year’s tour and collaborations with local nonprofits. (Get tickets to that tour here.) Plus, he touches on how surfing informs his music, and celebrating the 20th anniversary of his debut album, Brushfire Fairytales.
