About this episode
Whether you consider him country, bluegrass, folk or rock, Robbie Fulks is one of our greatest songwriters and an awfully talented guitarist and singer as well. He can be satirical and biting but also can pierce your heart, as the penetrating character studies on his albums Gone Away Backward and the Grammy-nominated Upland Stories have done. Having long lived in Chicago, Robbie moved to Los Angeles a few years ago. Why would he do that? He also talks about his writing process—does he write when he doesn’t have to?—his 30 Rock guest spot, his love of collaboration and his poolside meeting with another accomplished singer-songwriter because apparently that’s what one does in L.A.
