NSTS Episode 118 – Iconic Guitarist Kevin Breit

I was thrilled to host the great Kevin Breit this week on NSTS. Kevin has played guitar alongside the likes of Celine Dion, Norah Jones, Marc Jordan, and so many others. 

I was particularly happy to have Kevin in because he grew up in the same Northern Ontario small town I did a few years before, and after he left he was mythologized up there during my teen years. I really enjoyed the chat we had about his incredible and tasteful playlist. His musical acumen is staggering, his stories are fascinating, and his new record Stella Bella Strata is unbelievably good.   

Breit’s playlist: 

Bob Dylan – Brownsville Girl

King Curtis – Whiter Shade of Pale

Randy Newman – Wandering Boy

Rosetta Thorpe – Didn’t It Rain

Mary Gauthier – I Drink

Hawksley Workman – We’re Not Broken Yet

Joni Mitchell – Sunny Sunday
