Episode 16: Music, Mortality & The Avett Brothers with Tim Mossberger

About a month ago, I sat down with my friend Tim Mossberger in Champaign, Illinois to talk about our mutual favorite band, The Avett Brothers, and a bunch of their songs that deal with topics related to mortality.  Tim has a website called As My Life Turns to a Song – The Avett Brothers Archive.  He has been methodically collecting and documenting the history of the band, and together with Paul Oehler has created an Avett setlist database that is as comprehensive as possible.  And with me, Tim has created Tales of Avett News, a blog where we publish concert reviews, interviews with Avett fans and people connected with the band, and other content of interest to Avett fans.   In this episode, Tim and I discuss a number of Avett Brothers songs that deal with various aspects of mortality including: The Fall Talk on Indolence The Lowering Die Die Die Another Youngster Am I Born to Die (cover) Live and Die Life Through My Prayers Once and Future Carpenter Morning Song Murder in the City No Hard Feelings
