I have been a big fan of Sonny Smith's for a few years so getting to chat with him over the hour we spent on the phone was a big thrill for me. Sonny is a charming and candid fellow that openly talked about how he often wants to crawl in bed pull the sheets over his head and quit music.

Doug Mesner, Repressed Memories

Conversations With Matt Dwyer is a music podcast that focuses on the lives and work of legendary, established and emerging new artists. The interviews are not your typical Q&amp;A format but an unfolding organic conversation that shines a light on the lesser explored corners of an artist's work, life, triumphs and challenges. Some past guests included Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips, Van Dyke Parks, Lou Barlow, Donita Sparks of L7, Boots Riley and Jenn Wassner of Wye Oak/Flock Of Dimes. Conversations With Dwyer was also the catalyst for John Lurie selling his series "Painting With John," to HBO.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
