Encore episode: Hurray For The Riff Raff

On March 20th, Hurray For The Riff Raff will release Live Forever: a new live record on the exact two-year anniversary of their last studio effort, The Past Is Still Alive. To celebrate the new live album as well as the announcement of an upcoming tour in June followed by a limited run of dates with Rhiannon Giddens, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Mavis Staples - not to mention lighting some belated birthday candles for Alynda’s 40th on February 26th, we are revisiting this 2024 conversation with Alynda which details some of the stories that they share as memoir-style songs on The Past Is Still Alive and how the songs and recording of the album suddenly took on a whole new meaning following the unexpected passing of their father.
