Slim Moon
Season 2, Episode 9, Sep 12, 2019, 12:30 PM
Our guest today is Slim Moon, the founder of the record label Kill Rock Stars.
KRS put out two Elliott Smith albums, the self-titled record (1995) and Either/Or (1997), so Slim had pretty much a front row seat as he saw Elliott firmly establish himself as a successful solo artist.
As you can imagine, Slim has some incredible stories to tell – both about his favourite song pick, his relationship with Elliott and their work together. He also reveals a new album Elliott album re-issue he’s currently working on.
It was a pleasure talking to Slim, and we hope you enjoy listening to the interview as much as we did speaking to him.
Following our chat with Slim, we have a listener favourite song pick from Kellan Stover from Austin, Texas, USA.
