EP4 Cocktails with Bright Antenna - Jeff Buckley
Jeff Buckley is magical! New graphic novel, Jeff's mom & an amazing musical tribute that includes the legendary Wayne Kramer.
Bright Antenna's own Tiffanie DeBartolo wrote the text to a new graphic novel about Jeff Buckley. Jeff's mom, Mary Guibert, stops by to discuss it all with us. We end with a musical tribute to Jeff by an array of amazing artists including Wayne Kramer of the MC5 and Kyle Nicolaides (aka Beware of Darkness) and more. And it's all live in front a sold-out audience at The Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley, CA.
