Cory Branan

Cory Branan is an incredibly prolific singer/songwriter from Memphis Tennessee. He's been recording albums since the early 2000s and has made a name for himself as a performer and recording artist ever since. His last few records have been released by Bloodshot Records, and he has spent the last number of years touring in support of his releases. From a personal perspective, he's one of my favorite songwriters of all time. I put him up there with the greats, like Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash. His thought provoking lyrics infuse humor and wit into some of the most difficult topics in American life, and explore the complexities of our modern life. We chatted about his song "Another Nightmare in America" which explores the issue of police brutality. I appreciate his honesty, and courage to address such issues in his music. I hope you enjoy this interview, check out his catalog. I'm sure you'll find something you enjoy.
