Future Islands' Samuel T. Herring on Morphine's Mark Sandman

This is Unsung – a Crack Magazine podcast on Sonos Radio where
the world’s greatest artists reveal their heroes who never caught
the spotlight.


Today, Samuel T. Herring of Future Islands speaks with writer and
musician Stephanie Phillips about Mark Sandman, the famously
elusive frontman of the 1990s Massachusetts punk/blues/rock band
Morphine. While they built a loyal following and received
critical acclaim in their day, Morphine never broke through to
mainstream audiences. Samuel explores making it as an older
musician, songs that can be a cure for pain and how much one
should reveal of themselves through writing.
