Scott McCaughey

From the Young Fresh Fellows through the Minus 5, the Baseball Project and many more, Scott McCaughey has been in a lot of bands. He also played with R.E.M. for years and has collaborated with Wilco and others who love working with him. In late 2017 he suffered a stroke, landed in the ICU and worked his way back to the stage within months amid an outpouring of affection and support. How did Peter Buck help him rebound? How did McCaughey feel about the attention? How does he feel, period? With new albums by the Baseball Project and the No One awaiting release, he also digs into his songwriting process. McCaughey goes deep in this first episode of the second year of Caropop.
