Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams

Thursday, July 02, 2015 By Chip Frazier

Although Larry Campbell has released a number of his own recordings, he is known more for his associations than solo work. He is such a versatile musician it would almost be easier to list instruments he does not play. Most recently he garnered acclaim as a producer for Levon Helm’s final albums. Both albums, “Dirt […]

Monday Morning Video: Kasey Anderson

Monday, October 29, 2012 By Mayer Danzig

The VH-1 series “Behind the Music” has long chronicled tales of musical excess and success. Yet, for many musicians, the real story is far less glamorous for many musicians. Music is both an art and a business, and the latter can be daunting. Kasey Anderson knows the story well. For more than five years he […]
