Alex Amen: Learn It, Then Forget It
Notas del episodio
Singer-songwriter Alex Amen joins me to discuss his debut album, Sun of Amen.
The first time I heard the record, I couldn’t believe how young he was.
Not because the music sounds old, but because it carries a level of patience, craftsmanship, and emotional weight that feels increasingly rare (especially now!) Alex and I discuss the disappearing influence of regional culture, studying the great songwriters, recording live to tape, and how tradition can serve as a foundation for creating something entirely your own.
We also talk about clothes, Patagonia, Texas style, California dirtbag lore, The Beatles, parenting, and the lifelong pursuit of finding your voice.
BIG TUNES AND BIG FITS!
End Song is "Diamonds" from the Debut LP, Sun of Amen
