Howdy, folks. This week in Fairfield, we're honored to have Compass Records' The Waybacks performing at Cafe Paradiso, Wednesday October 29. Not neatly put into any one category, this quartet is made up of some top-notch acoustic musicians and have been performing together for nearly a decade. I had a chance to speak with founder and frontman, James Nash, from his home in San Francisco. Join me this Tuesday, on Gravel Road Radio, to hear what James had to say about touring, the growth of the Waybacks, songwriting and life as a musician. This Tuesday, October 28, from 2 - 4 p.m.
