Canadian veteran singer songwriter and former lead singer of The Jitters Blair Packham joins me live in the studio this week to talk about the multitude of projects he has on the go these days, and he brings in some great songs and tremendously thoughtful lyrical insights to chat about. Blair really gets the show’s gist, and his perspectives bolster some great discussion.

Blair and I talk about our common fondness for sad songs, our love for John Prine and Elvis Costello, the absurdity of musical guilty pleasures, and whether or not people will be talking about latest musical trend reggaeton in twenty five years. Probably not.

 

Packham’s playlist:

Steve Goodman – The Dutchman

John Prine – Far From Me

Elvis Costello – I Want You

Jennifer Warnes – Song of Bernadette

Ron Hynes – A Good Dog Is Lost
