S1E3 - The Landlocked Songwriter

Ellis Paul is a legend among songwriters. You can draw a direct line between his career and the lives of Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie and the rail hopping troubadours before him. In the middle of the COVID crisis, Ellis has gone from an average of 200 shows a year and 80,000 miles of driving to staying in space and building an amazing online community. We talk about songwriting. We talk about black lives matter. We talk about legacy among the folk music community. We couldn't quite get him to break 800 patrons, but we got really close!
