My first interview with Bill Callahan took place over the telephone on March 31, 2011, ahead of the April 19 release of his album, Apocalypse. The interview was conducted for and broadcast on the Mich Vish Interracial Morning Show! on May 4, 2011, and also for a print magazine profile. Bill and I bonded over our shared love of The Larry Sanders Show among other things, which you can hear now. As usual with archival interviews presented here, this is a raw, unedited recording that reflects the actual experience shared between the interview subject and I on the day we spoke. The latest album by Bill Callahan is called My Days of 58, and it’s available now via Drag City Records.

Lance Sampson from Aquakultre returns to discuss his new album 1783, the time I saw him request and receive chicken wings while performing on-stage and why his friends and family often engage in their own version of Hot Ones, how his research about the history of African Nova Scotia or Black Nova Scotia led him to write songs, why he engaged in this research initially and what he learned about his home province, his fascination with historical fractures and community-building, police and cultural erasure, archival recordings and eeriness, working with producer Erin Costelo and the sound of this record, a family singalong and the motion picture Jaws, what’s next for 1783, other future plans, and much more.

Jimmie Kilpatrick returns to discuss his excellent album Jimmie, the heartening experience of living in Manitoba, Canada these days and concentrating on his community, why he retired his Shotgun Jimmie name, bringing his sound sculpture work into his indie-rock aesthetic, collaborating with Ladyhawk’s Ryan Peters and messing around with tape loops, making subversive pop music, numerous lyrical references to analog and communication technology and falling asleep, keeping a little too busy, touring with the Burning Hell and alluding to Joni Mitchell, pondering work with John Samson Fellows, other future plans, and much more.
