WAIM #117: Jeffery Gower and Matty C Tour Recap

My dear friend and bandmate Jeffery Gower and I recently returned from a splendid three week tour of the American southeast. While Jeff and I had toured together before on long weekends in our band, the Stick Arounds, this was the first time where Jeff would be gone longer than just a few days. And, while I have toured like this several times in the past as a solo performer, I have never done so with a companion at my side.During our adventure, Jeff and I visited historic sites, legendary musical spaces, and saw untamed natural beauty. If you have been paying attention to this space in recent weeks, you’ll likely have seen some of the Tour Diary posts that I have shared details of some of the time that Jeff and I spent together on the road. This chat is a supplement of sorts to those posts.Over the course of our discussion, Jeff and I cover a few highlights of the tour including some of our favorite shows and stops, a few of our favorite culinary delights, and the bevy of amazing people that we encountered. Because I lived this experience and because Jeff is such a great friend, this is a pretty poor interview in the technical sense of that word. Still, I hope this chat gives you some insight about touring as two friends share some of their favorite stories from the road.Cheers,Matty C Get full access to What Am I Making at whatamimaking.substack.com/subscribe
