A soft spoken Glen Phillips sits down with Grant-Lee Phillips on this week’s Shortwave. Glen & Grant-Lee chat about their collaborating history and going out on tour together. Glen also shares stories about his early beginnings as a theatre geek with Toad the Wet Sprocket, how the ukelele saved his life, the glass coffee table incident, and why he’s known as the shoeless one. We are also treated to a couple of live songs from Glen’s latest album “The Coyote Sessions,” and Grant-Lee’s “Walking In The Green Corn.”
