This week, host Jason Jefferies is joined by North Carolina Music Hall of Famer and former Squirrel Nut Zipper Tom Maxwell, who discusses his new book A Really Strange and Wonderful Time: The Chapel Hill Music Scene 1989-1999, which is published by our friends at Hachette Books. Topics of conversation include North Carolina musical history, the Cat's Cradle, the temptation to label something as 'the next' something else, Dexter Romweber and the Flat Duo Jets, the desire for profit vs. the desire to document, Jimbo Mathus, Metal Flake Mother, and much more. Copies of A Really Strange and Wonderful Time: The Chapel Hill Music Scene 1989-1999 can be purchased here from Page 158 Books in Wake Forest, NC. SIGNED COPIES ARE AVAILABLE (while supplies last).
