2023/02/15

This is the final episode in our As Cities Burn miniseries. We mentioned our friend Joe Cutler in just about every episode, and it was quite the oversight not inviting him on earlier. He has some insight into the artwork for Hell Or High Water, and he’s here to set the record straight. But that’s not all! TJ has crafted an expertly deconstructed cover of “Capo”, which you can hear at the end of the episode.If you like what you hear, please rate, review, subscribe, and follow!Connect with us

Really really, though, this is it, this is it: the final album in our As Cities Burn miniseries. It’s been ten years since the last proper ACB full-length record, and we’re curious what Louisiana’s finest jazz band sounds like all these years later. We also discuss our favorite shrimpin’ songs, accidentally sneaking into a Bo Burnham show, and TJ writes a worship song on the spot.
