Joe Lawlor – Corner Lounge interview 12/09/16

It was great to visit with Joe Lawlor before the Joe Lawlor & Friends benefit show at The Southern! Joe’s been a longtime live recording engineer for Dave Matthews Band, is an amazing guitarist in his own right & had a pretty good run with his local pal Andy Waldeck in the DC-area band Egypt in the late 80s/early 90s. He told us some great stories about all of this & more, including a new local artist he’s been working with, Kristen Bowden.
