Podcast 298: Christian Lee Hutson

With Beginners (ANTI- Records), Christian Lee Hutson released one
of our favorite records of 2020, so it only felt fitting to
invite this Los Angeles-based musician back on the Fretboard
Journal Podcast. During our chat, Hutson talks about the making
of his album (including his previous failed attempts to record
these songs); overcoming self-doubt; working alongside Phoebe
Bridgers (who ended up producing Beginners and appearing on it);
taking up the clarinet and flute in the middle of the pandemic
and much more.


We also talk about Hutson's guest appearance on the Reply-All
Podcast, where he pieced together and re-created a forgotten pop
song based on one listener's recollection.
