Peppino D'Agostino & Clive Carroll Interview -
Clive Carroll (to the right) was recently described as 'probably the best and most original young acoustic guitar player and composer in Britain' (Acoustic Guitar Magazine). Peppino (to the left) has achieved a unique guitar and compositional style blending technical virtuosity, prowess and wizardry with the lyricism, fire and passion of his Mediterranean heritage. Not many guitarists are as eager to challenge the limits of their instruments--using unconventional tunings, tapping the notes on the freatboard only, using creative percussive effects, and inventing a mini orchestra of sounds that , on first listen, seems almost impossible for one lone guitar.

Jeff Black Interview -
This interview with Jeff Black was originally heard on 4/18/04 on BOB FM. Jeff Black has long been recognized as an impactful songwriter, and in Nashville, a town where co-writing is the norm, Black writes alone. The words and music to his rough and tumble songs read like a delicate and personal journal from a well-traveled soul. His songs have been covered by artists from all different genres of music, from the legendary Waylon Jennings, to other artists such as the acoustic/bluegrass virtuoso Sam Bush and Canadian pop/country songstress Lisa Brokop to name a few.
