Description

If you find that stories and background context relating to the songs you’re listening to make them more enjoyable, you’re not alone. The current digital age of streaming and playlists has brought exponentially more music into our ears than the old days of vinyl when every inch of packaging was meant to accompany the music in an intriguing way to the listener. In this podcast, Sean Watkins presents his new solo album within this podcast. Each episode features one song off the record paired up with a conversation with a guest who’s related to that song in one way or another.

Sean Watkins wraps up the first season of This Is Who We Are. Stay subscribed to learn about updates on season two.
Sean has a light hearted discussion with his brother-in-law Todd Cooper (Feliz Navipod, U Two Talkin’ U2 2 Me Too? Yes.) who’s the reason this episode’s song even ever got recorded. Topics discussed are the genres of Bluegrass and Hardcore accompanied by a lot of dumb jokes.
Sean has a conversation with singer songwriter Glen Phillips (Toad the Wet Sprocket) about the the possible reasons why certain works of art or spiritual writings/teachings have the ability to last through millennia, remaining just as relevant and powerful as when they were originally made.
Sean talks with highly respected magician/comedian Derek Hughes about the power behind the Red Herring and other common tools magicians use to enhance an illusion which further engages the audience by telling a story rather than just doing a “trick”. Also discussed is what it was like for Derek to make it all the way to runner-up on America’s Got Talent in 2015 and how Howard Stern’s encouragement affected his art.
Sean talks with Inara George of The Bird and the Bee about her godfather Jackson Browne, and the impact he had on her life musically and otherwise after her dad Lowell George, (lead singer for the highly influential country rock band, Little Feet) died when she was five.
