Elizabeth Nelson returns to discuss the Paranoid Style and their new album, Known Associates, life near Washington D.C., a recap of our recent discussion about the Replacements’ Let It Be reissue, a brief overview of American paranoia, her penchant for wordy lyrics and how that impacts her as a singer, some of her favourite sincerely humorous songwriters, Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer” and Bob Dylan’s “Love and Theft,” her love of musicals and nodding to other people’s songs, why I think she might dig Carolyn Mark, playing rare shows, other future plans, and much more.
