E Is For Elliott Smith
*Originally released April 1st 2018*
A! What is ‘E up to?”, said A to Z. Long story short, Z replied “Elliott Smith”, and then the fun began. Join us as we take on the influential indie / lo-fi darling of the 1990s, and chat about songwriting tactics, substance abuse, experimentation, and the ever-controversial “posthumous release.”
