Podcast 309: Danny Barnes

Danny Barnes returns to the Fretboard Journal Podcast to talk
about the making of his 2020 Grammy-nominated album, Man on Fire
(ATO). The album is full of surprising twists, right down to the
lineup: Bill Frisell, Dave Matthews and John Paul Jones all make
appearances. We talk to Barnes about the making of the Man on
Fire, how he met Jones, and learn a bit about his creative
process (beyond banjo playing and songwriting, Barnes is a
talented visual artist and cartoonist). It's a great chat with
one of our favorite boundary-pushing musicians.
