Just discovered this guy... although he's been around for a long time. Excellent writer, singer and guitar player. Very interesting approach to songwriting. Will delve more deeply into his music.

[@zscarecrows]

You should check out his album with The Soft Boys, Underwater Moonlight

[@JoshSaitz]

Wow, that's amazing to me. Been a huge fan since 1986 and he is still amazing.

[@steelygray]

Excellent. The new album it's very good. Thank you KEXP.

[@pfflam]

I just saw him live in Portland, and can tell you, he has never sounded or played better -even though, honestly I would only be able to talk in relation to his last 10 years playing in this town or past recordings: based on that he is at the pinnacle of his sound and playing: what a blessing to be going so strong for so long! '

[@slowuncle]

Yup. I was at that show (Aladdin Theatre, Portland) and I agree. I've been going to Robyn's shows since the 80s and that was possibly the best show yet!

[@ringoshub]

We love you Robyn !

[@gabriellecoffman9244]

Wow just now discovering him!

[@JcGrubbsFilms]

He should have brought Dan Bejar on so he could have done the impression he's been doing of Robyn for 20 years

[@moondrive7158]

[@thaumatology]

Sean’s vocal harmonies really take Virginia Woolf to the next level

[@thaumatology]

[@clinchman6950]

Perfect

[@jmthompson437]

Sean!

[@ayushupreti5426]

such a syd barrett influence in his singing and writing wow

[@cynicalis9435]

Wow. This man is so talented! He gets a lot of recognition for his movies, but he's also a great musician.

[@therealevild2565]

He makes movies....?

[@dapaula1]

Music as a compass. That's it.

[@lizcenterfield1963]

I had low expecttions for this, but the other guy's vocal blends pretty well. Feline Dynasty works for me too.

[@joelphillips7202]

the 'other guy' is from Harvey Danger if you can remember them ;-)

[@babyblue7731]

[@AessamL]

for a second i thought this is "Tyll " from InnerFidelity ,definitely i need some sleep .

[@marcustang6266]

That's a good one.

[@lizcenterfield1963]

Not a bad interviewer

[@JPVanderbuilt]

What's in those headphones? A click track?

[@antonioelle4894]

I believe in hear monitor, it helps to sing better

[@cesiumbob7278]

I love the meet the new builders Amazon Cloud commercial. It is great to see tech geniuses at work so we can worship their unique, dedicated genius.

[@timpickup6984]

On Madonna of the Wasps he sounds eerily like Billy Corgan.

[@crisprtalk6963]

he's playing down the street from me soon, but after watching and listening to this, I will pass. I liked his passion for Syd but beyond that... not much.
