Ep. 120 - MATTHEW SWEET ("Sick of Myself")




Songcraft: Spotlight on Songwriters show

Summary: Matthew Sweet joins us to unpack his process of writing power pop gems like "Girlfriend," "The Ugly Truth," "Sick of Myself" and many others. Plus, we get the lowdown on how a postcard from Michael Stipe altered his musical future; why he says being a solo artist is lonely; what happened when he suggested that he and Susanna Hoffs write an album together; and the song he collaborated on with a Saturday Night Live legend that led to another SNL legend covering one of his very earliest recordings.
