This seems like a good time to tell you that Browan Lollar once saw me in my pajamas, with bedhead, in an elevator, in a hotel in Charlottesville, Virginia. He probably doesn’t remember it, but it’s a true story.

Also a true story: after many years as Jason Isbell’s very talented guitarist, Browan has released a truly marvelous solo EP, that’s available from This Is American Music for four dollars. You guys drink beers that cost more than that. Go buy it. It’s great, I promise.
