On today's episode, I talk to musician Marnie Stern. Originally
from New York City, Marnie didn't start out trying to pursue music
professionally, and her first album In Advance of the Broken Arm
came out in 2007 on Kill Rock Stars when she was 30-years-old. It
instantly garnered acclaim, and was followed by This Is It and I Am
It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It
Is It and That Is That in 2008, a self-titled album two years later
and The Chronicles of Marnia in 2013. The previous year, she made
Spin Magazine's list of "100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time", and
after Seth Meyers took over Late Night, Marnie eventually joined
the 8G Band for a number of years. Most recently, Marnie has
recorded her first album in ten years; The Comeback Kid is out now
on Joyful Noise, and it's fantastic!
