Peter Frampton - Approaching Each Song with Curiosity

Lightning Bugs: Conversations with Ben Folds

Today’s guest is musician, actor, and producer, Peter Frampton. You’ll recognize his work from music groups like: Humble Pie, The Herd, and Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band. You’ll also see him in movies like Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and Almost Famous. In this episode we talk about being a fan for someone else’s work and how an artist can be respectful when someone tells them they appreciate their work. We also talk about music versus lyrics, how temporary lyrics can still have impact, and the lasting impact of good lyrics. We also talk about approaching each project from a place of innocence, and how perspective can influence how you make art.
