Rewind: Marty Stuart & Justin Townes Earle on Cowboy Psychedelia and Surviving the Storm

Here’s a double feature: Marty Stuart joined Kyle Meredith in 2017 to talk about his album Way Out West, a record that drifts between cowboy songs, desert psychedelia, surf rock, and even flying saucers, all captured with help from Heartbreaker Mike Campbell. Stuart also opened up about his deep ties with Native communities, his lifelong love of California’s mythology, and how Western folklore still fuels his songwriting. And going back to 2012, the late Justin Townes Earle sat down with Kyle to talk about Nothing's Gonna Change The Way You Feel About Me Now. Fresh off Harlem River Blues, he spoke about wearing a reputation like armor, barely surviving his 20s, finding clarity at 30, and writing songs that doubled as studies of American roots music. Two different visions of Americana, both with their eyes on the horizon.
