On this podcast we believe that all albums are either summer albums or winter albums. But what defines them? The lyrics, the music, your personal relationship with the record? Summer Album/Winter Album is a musical debate podcast with Jody Avirgan (538, 30 for 30, Radiotopia) and Craig Finn (The Hold Steady).
Each episode, Jody and Craig offer their opening arguments, and then with the help of a guest, explore one of the greatest records of all time. Then: a verdict from the artist. New episodes twice a month.
Between full episodes, we’ll bring you quick conversations with some of our favorite music people — rapid reactions to a bunch of classic albums: Summer or Winter.
Today, a special chat between Jody and Craig about Craig’s new album “Always Been” — Craig talks through some of the records that inspired his new work, and renders a final verdict: Summer or Winter.
More soon!
