Podcast 111: Guitarist Tim Young

Tim Young is best known for his guitar playing with Wayne Horvitz
in Zony Mash but he’s also done a ton of session and studio work
with everyone from Todd Rundgren and Fiona Apple to John
Legend. 


On this week’s podcast, we talk to Young about his career as
a session guitarist, including his stint playing on the
case/lang/veirs record (he’s also immortalized as the subject of
the song “Best Kept Secret” on the album) and his work as
the guitarist in the house band for The Late Late Show
with James Corden. Young tells us about his time at Seattle’s
Cornish College of the Arts, his struggle to connect with some
classic jazz sounds and how he found his guitar voice thanks
to the music of Bill Frisell and Ween.


Added bonus: We shot video of Young playing with Bill Frisell at
the Fretboard Journal, coming soon to our website. Stay tuned…
