JD McPherson on the long game, a body of work, and Nick Lowe's advice.

JD McPherson is a singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer who's put out records on Decca, Rounder and New West, toured or collaborated with the likes of Dan Auerbach, Nick Lowe, and Lucius, is the guitar player for Robert Plant & Allison Krauss, as well as opening the shows with his own band, and is the producer of the recently-announced Jessica Simpson (comeback?) record. We talk to JD about all modes of touring - from bus to plane to our shared affinity for van and trailer, touring to experience different cultures and meet new people, the long game of building a body of work and the value of word of mouth, Tulsa Oklahoma, and the advice that Nick Lowe shared with him backstage.
