Shelby Means on her new solo record and 4 years with Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway
My guest this week is Shelby Means.
Lots of you will know Shelby from her time with Della Mae and, more recently, from her time as the bass player in Molly Tuttle's band Golden Highway, who she won a Grammy with. She now has a new solo record out called Shelby Means.
We talk about making the record, including the people she assembled to play on it; the songs, which were written over a long period of time; co-writing and the joy of songs you know so well they feel like vintage clothes.
We also chat about her time with Molly Tuttle and the extraordinary journey the band went on over 4 years.
This was a fun conversation about a great record.
You can buy a copy at www.shelbyleemeans.com, where you'll also find info and tour dates.
Follow Shelby on Instagram and Facebook for news and updates.
Happy picking,
Matt
