Andy Zipf, Achtung Baby, and the Power of Place

On this episode we are joined by singer-songwriter Andy Zipf on
the eve of the release of his latest single, “Did You Know I Was
A Ghost?” and in anticipation of his upcoming album, How To Make
A Paper Airplane. Zipf, a 20-year veteran artist, has worked with
labels and functioned as an indie. He has been in bands and has
been a solo artist. His latest album, however, takes his work to
a whole new place. Drummer and percussionist Jay Bellerose,
bassist Jennifer Condos, keyboardist Tyler Chester, and upright
bassist Dennis Crouch, have played with T Bone Burnett, Robert
Plant, Over The Rhine, Madison Cunningham, and too many others to
list. As Zipf’s band, they bring sparkle and depth to his
excellent songs about loss, doubt, mystery, and beauty. And
speaking of sparkle and depth, we cue up U2’s Achtung Baby on the
True Tunes Jukebox and take a careful listen 30 years on. Artist
manager and certified geek Nick Barre joins JJT to examine the
lingering legacy of this postmodern classic.


Don't miss Andy's exclusive acoustic performance of "Did You Know
I Was A Ghost?" on True Tunes at 45RPM.
