Surprise Cast #267 The Hanging Stars w/ Richard Olson

Dear Richard, You brought fun, good energy, and intelligence to the conversation! For the second time, I truly enjoyed having you on the program. Thank you for discussing the delicious-sounding new album 'Just A Day', the band's evolving lineup, and the creative choices that have reshaped its sound. It was interesting to hear how the group moved away from the pedal steel sound toward a more stripped-back approach while still keeping those dreamy harmonies. I loved hearing about the jingle-jangle pop touchstones, such as The Byrds, Big Star, and Teenage Fanclub, easily some of my favourites. Your stories about collaborations recorded at Edwyn Collins' studio were a real treat. Keep chasing "the bliss," my friend, whilst always staying true to those timeless harmonies and melodies!
