Summary

Today my good friend Greg Loiacono of The Mother Hips stops by the show for his 2nd visit to talk all about his new solo record Mystic Traces.

Greg is a founding member of The Mother Hips and has been recording and touring with them for 29 years. Easily one of my top 5 favorite bands ever.

Greg's New solo record is fantastic and I strongly recommend you pick of a copy on Orange Vinyl ASAP before they are all gone.

Greg and I dive into topics such as how he recorded this new record, How he got Neal Casal to play on it and what he's been doing during the Lockdown.

Greg also talks about his time playing guitar over the last few years with Chris Robinson's Green Leaf Rustlers.

Enjoy this episode and stay safe.
