The Backseat Lovers – studio session at The Current (music + interview)

Utah indie-rock band the Backseat Lovers are early in their career, but they’ve already signed to Capitol Records, and their latest album, "Waiting To Spill," was produced by six-time Grammy Award-winning producer David Greenbaum. While in town for a show at the Palace Theatre in St. Paul, the Backseat Lovers stopped at The Current to perform a set of songs and to talk with host Ayisha Jaffer about what it was like to work with Greenbaum. They also shed some light on the slightly under-the-radar music scene in the state of Utah, and they talk about how they work to connect with the communities where they perform by donating to local nonprofits.
