We Talk With Greg Trooper

Greg Trooper is returning to the Narrows on Saturday, June 11th!

He has one of the hottest Americana CDs in the nation. It's called "Make It Through This World," and it's receiving rave reviews.

We emailed Greg with some questions about the CD and other topics.

Question: The new album seems to be a breakthrough for you, from a commercial point of view. If that's true, what are the benefits of having some commercial success?

Well, it's too early to tell if it's a commercial success but if that does happen I'm going to the dentist straight away.

Question: Are you thinking about your next recording? Are you writing?

Haven't been writing much lately. Been busy touring in support of the CD and don't write a whole lot on the road.

Question: Much has been made about your working with legendary producer Dan Penn. Do you think you'll do your next record with him?

I will make my next 100 records with Dan if the opportunity presents itself.

Question: What music are your listening to these days? Any recommendations?

Can't get enough of Nick Lowe "The Convincer" and just bought John Prine's latest. It's gorgeous.
