Episode 207: Phil Craven
Hello!
Pushing into the early 200s here with the Badass Records podcast, and I was lucky enough to host Phil Craven last week for Episode No. 207.
Phil is a son, a sibling, a down-to-Earth dude, and a musician in both Whiskey for the Lady as well as Dimension Bill Edwards.
This is my favorite time of year yet, as a) NHL playoffs are happening, and b) it's not hot yet, so I was thrilled to have some first-round action on in the background while editing this fantastic conversation with a little bit of playoff hockey in the background.
Anyway...Phil and I talked growing up, trimming bud, discovering music, learning instruments, the incredible journey of being a bandmate, the Walnut Valley Festival, and -- wait...I feel like there was something else...oh, yeah! -- a few of Phil's favorite albums, which were these:
Nirvana's Nevermind (1991)
Pure Guava (1992), Ween
Phish's Rift (1993)
Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy (1996), The Refreshments
Tool's Lateralus (2001)
It was awesome chatting with Phil, and I encourage you to to follow Whiskey for the Lady on Instagram at @whiskeyforthelady, or on Facebook, or keep tabs on whiskeyforthelady.com. They're KCMO Thrashgrass that you don't wanna miss out on. And don't forget Dimension Bill Edwards. Find them on the streams.
Many thanks to my newfound huge following in Vietnam (shrug emoji), and a super-huge thank you to those of you that have supported the podcast stateside for however long.
Cheers.
