Send us Fan MailJoshua Radin joins Jeff and Matt to talk about his love for the classic 1968 Van Morrison album, Astral Weeks.We also discuss Joshua's new EP, 'though the world will tell me so, volume 2,' which is out on June 23rd.The follow up to ‘though the world will tell me so, volume 1,’ the breathtaking collection of songs featured on Radin’s upcoming EP were inspired by his time on the road in 2022. Rather than wait for inspiration to strike, Radin seeks it out wherever possible. To that end, in the fall of 2022, he left his material existence in the rearview, grabbed a backpack, packed his guitar, picked up a pen and a pad, and sought new stories to tell. “I felt like I was going to live the life of a kid on a gap year after high school,” he smiles. “However, it has helped my writing and my soul. I feel so much freer.”It was a pleasure to get a chance to talk tunes with Joshua. Check out all of his latest info, including upcoming tour dates at his official website.P.S. We mention David Wild's classic 1990 profile of Van for Rolling Stone. You can read that here. What an adventure!Support the show
