Jonathan Wilson joins host Raina Douris

Even if you’re not familiar with Jonathan Wilson’s music, you’ve probably heard his work before. As an established producer, he’s helped to revitalize the Laurel Canyon music scene through his work with artists like Dawes and Father John Misty in his California studio. But Jonathan left L.A. and went back to his Southern roots to record his new album, Dixie Blur, in Nashville. Today, he explains why he made that decision, thanks in part to Steve Earle. And Jonathan performs some of the new music, live.
