Gregory Ackerman, whose Still Waiting Still is out today, guests on the Stereo Embers Podcast

PODCAST INTERVIEW

Gregory Ackerman’s much-anticipated new LP Still Waiting Still is out today (listen here), and he’s also received the podcast treatment from Alex Green of Stereo Embers.

Some great intro words from Alex, as usual: β€œThe album is as breezy as it is riveting–it’s a brilliant meditation on the quotidian life and its daily comforts and disruptions. Ackerman’s work is intimate and confiding and played with the kind of commanding interior strength that gives it an instantly timeless quality. It's a rich and seamless collection of woebegone West Coast loneliness that perfectly contrasts the sunrises and sunsets of Southern California with the corresponding highs and lows of the human heart.”
