Author: Roger Wink January 14, 2016 Duration: 29:00

This is the second time we've had the honor to talk with Nils Lofgren (our previous interview). He has recently released his new live album, UK2015 Face the Music Tour, one of a long line of solo releases from throughout his almost fifty year career. 

Lofgren released his first album with his group Grin in 1971 and began a solo career four years later. He has also been a member of Crazy Horse and recorded during the 70's with Neil Young. 

Nils has also been a member of Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band since 1984, appearing on seven of his studio albums and participating in eleven Springsteen tours including the upcoming trek in support of the expanded version of The River

VVN Music Radio


Hosted by Roger Wink, The VVN Music Interviews is a conversation series dedicated to the seasoned voices that have shaped our soundtracks for decades. This podcast focuses squarely on veteran musicians-those artists across pop, rock, R&B, soul, country, folk, and blues with twenty years or more of recording history. Each episode is built around a long-form interview, offering a deep dive into the careers, creative processes, and personal reflections of these established figures. You’ll hear stories from the road, insights into the evolution of genres, and perspectives that only come from a lifetime in the industry. While the core of the show is dialogue, brief musical excerpts-always under thirty seconds and used for editorial context under fair use-illustrate the discussion, letting you recall the specific sounds and styles that define each guest's work. It’s a space for thoughtful exchange rather than promotional chatter, aiming to connect the dots between an artist's past achievements and their current place in the musical landscape. For anyone curious about the people behind the enduring records, this podcast provides a direct line to their experiences and wisdom, all through Roger’s engaged and knowledgeable questioning. The tone is more like a series of candid, in-depth conversations than a formal interview program, prioritizing substance and legacy over fleeting trends.
