    <description>This podcast is for those who love music but can't write a tune to save their lives. We talk with singer/songwriters of all stripes, professional touring musicians to those who can't quite catch a break. Maybe you'll hear something you'll like. Maybe not. But you will come away with a greater appreciation for the gift of songwriting, and how hard it really is. Now sponsored by @thepugdc!</description>

  <itunes:subtitle>All music is derivative of something else. That’s why it’s so refreshing to come across an album that wears its influences on its sleeves. In this episode, Minneapolis-based singer/songwriter Adam Levy returns to discuss his most recent album All Hat, No Cattle, the third record by his band Turn Turn Turn. Turn Turn Turn harkens back to the ‘60s and ‘70s country rock sounds from California, Texas, Nashville and beyond. We cover a ton of ground in this interview, so sit back, relax, and welcome Adam Levy back to For Songs. </itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;All music is derivative of something else. That’s why it’s so refreshing to come across an album that wears its influences on its sleeves. In this episode, Minneapolis-based singer/songwriter Adam Levy returns to discuss his most recent album All Hat, No Cattle, the third record by his band Turn Turn Turn. Adam joined me about a year ago as we rejoiced in the first Honeydogs album in nearly a decade. One of the most prolific songwriters I’ve ever met, one band is not enough for Adam’s never-ending musical pursuits. Turn Turn Turn harkens back to the ‘60s and ‘70s country rock sounds from California, Texas, Nashville and beyond. Their new album would fit right at home with anything released by the Byrds, Flying Burrito Brothers, or Gram Parsons. Adam recounts how the band—and album—came together over the last several years. We cover a ton of ground in this interview, so sit back, relax, and welcome Adam Levy back to For Songs.t&lt;/p&gt;</description>
