Bill Frisell is here to discuss his new sextet record, In My Dreams, the different American and European cities he has lived in over the years and how they might inform his musical practice, his 75th birthday and the March 2026 tour dates that mark the occasion, a dream about music and its possibilities that he had 30 years ago and is still processing, the lessons mistakes teach us, how film noir scores and the work of Alfred Hitchcock film composer Bernard Hermann may have found their way to In My Dreams, the time he saw Bob Dylan and the Hawks in 1966 and why Dylan might be into Bill’s latest record, what inspired him to put together the In My Dreams sextet, future plans, and much more.
