223: Jimmy LaValle (The Album Leaf, Tristeza, The Locust, Film Composer, etc.)

Joe met this week’s guest–Jimmy LaValle–on tour over twenty years ago. A lot has happened in the intervening time, and Jimmy catches Joe up on: the genesis and evolution of The Album Leaf; becoming a film composer; and raising a family. This conversation was a reminder of the magic that is felt on early tours and how that feeling is still within reach if we can learn from experience but also maintain some semblance of childlike wonder. In any case, it’s always fun to see old friends.
