My Music Episode 716 - Eddie Skuller
How do you sing Tom Waits without trying to sound like Tom Waits? Eddie Skuller joins Graham Coath to talk about Blind Love , his four-song EP exploring Waits’ songwriting through his own voice. From slowing down “Downtown Train” to finding a different feel for the title track, Eddie explains how he chose the songs and made room to tell their stories. Recorded live to tape at The Chicken Shack in Upstate New York with producer Nick Kinsey, the sessions came together with remarkably little fuss. The vocals intended as temporary guides became the finished performances. Sometimes the feeling is already there, and another take won’t make it better. Eddie shares what it meant to record alongside his son, why “House Where Nobody Lives” has stayed with him, and how experience has changed his understanding of performing. The conversation also turns to the beauty in sad songs, the connection between a singer and an audience, and using social media to actually talk to people. Give Eddie’s music a proper listen. And if a song means something to you, tell him. That conversation is part of the music too. MyMusic is proudly sponsored by 13th Floor Sound
