Shawn Mullins Pt. 3: The Strip Mall Inspiration

from Entertainment News Daily - THE END · host WNNX-FM | CMLS ATL

In this conclusion to The Morning X interview, they continue their lively chat with Shawn Mullins ahead of a massive weekend park festival. Tune in as he takes a listener call, reveals the everyday inspiration behind one of his classic tracks, and clarifies whether the song's leathery protagonist is actually based on a real person. Discover the old-school voice impressions he creates to pass the time on long drives, and listen as a seemingly simple joke question about his lyrics turns into a surprisingly profound conversation about the pure essence of humanity.  This is from the Best of The Morning X vault.
