Bonnie "Prince" Billy (2019) - Teaser

Kreative Kontrol ·

2025/02/02

In my most recent Kreative Kontrol newsletter, I mentioned that I’d done a long-form interview with Will Oldham about his 2019 album, I Made a Place, but it was only used for a print piece, not for this podcast because, at the time, he was feeling ambivalent about being on pods. Sometime in the last couple of years, I asked Will if I could share this phoner, and he said yes, so here it is finally, virtually unedited.The conversation lasted about an hour and took place on Monday, September 29, 2019

The first time I interviewed Will Oldham, it was in-person at a Toronto café on August 19, 2006. He’d played an in-store at Rotate This (Queen & Bathurst location) earlier in the day, and I was told I had 25 minutes to ask him about his then new album, The Letting Go. It was a magazine assignment, but I also planned to use it for my young campus/community radio show, and so we pretended we were live on the air, early on a Wednesday morning (it aired on September 13, 2006). I abided by the
