#4 - Questions, Answers and Performance of an Unreleased Song

In this installment of the Casey Stratton Podcast I discuss regrets, relationships, and the early LA years recording Driving to the Moon and The Giver and the Grave Digger. This week's performance is of a song from that time that was not recorded (until 1998 but it remains unreleased) called The Life Went Spinning. Talk even turns to Ramen noodles. Riveting stuff. Music recommendation this week is Kendall Payne's Paper Skin.

After carving a critically acclaimed but under-selling niche for herself on acoustic guitar, Kendall Payne received the gift of a piano from her new husband, and tapped into rich new expressions of creativity. With more of a stripped down vibe than earlier projects, Paper Skin retains the intense passion and reflective power we’ve always appreciated in Payne. Skin thoughtfully examines issues of trust, relationships, and pain, always with a deep honesty overlooking none of life’s complexities. - Kevan Breitinger
