In addition to his solo work, Ken Stringfellow is, or has been, in R.E.M., Big Star, The Minus Five, The Disciplines and The Posies, just to name a few.

While he was in town for solo show, he dropped by for an in-studio session. This man is a story teller! We talked in detail about his multitude of musical projects, including his forthcoming solo record ("Savior's Hands," which he played, will appear on it).

Ken also shared an interesting story about playing a Big Star song at a Swedish Punk festival and his first trip to China to record Mongolian Folk musicians, Hangghi.

Songs performed:
"You Drew", "Savior's Hands" and "Licenses to Hide"
