Quotes
I'm really excited to have Sara joining me on this tour ... We've played together a number of times in the last few years, sometimes on her show and sometimes mine, and it's always been a thrill for me. I'm floored by her amazing instrumental virtuosity and by her beautiful voice, and most of all, I love her songs.
I asked Jackson Browne if we did an event, would he come and sing a song ... He had never been here, but he always wanted to come because I talked a lot about Sturgeon Bay. There was a time he wanted to make a recording studio in a trailer park (sort of like Ry Cooder). I said, ‘Why don’t you come up and buy this old motel here?’ That was the kernel of the idea, but he never made it until we did Steel Bridge. He came for the first one.
This (Steel Bridge) festival and this motel could have happened anywhere where there was a nucleus of creative activity. As it turns out, Sturgeon Bay is crawling with interesting creative people. It’s like the woods are alive with music.More quotes »
