Kendell Marvel plus Aaron Lee Tasjan

Episode 102: Kendell Marvel, native of rural southern Illinois, is a veteran professional Music Row songwriter whose work has been recorded by Gary Allan, George Strait, Lee Ann Womack, Chris Stapleton and others. He's fought for country music values inside the system, even as it's often let him down. He also put his performing and band-leading dreams on hold for years while raising a family. Now he's back, leading a periodic pop-up honky tonk at the Exit/In and writing new albums. Coming in October, Solid Gold Sounds, recorded at and for Dan Auerbach's Easy Eye Records. It's a 70s tinged classic country album that's good for the soul. Also, a catch up with Aaron Lee Tasjan, who's just released an entirely new version of his 2018 album called Karma For Cheap Reincarnated.
