The Dream Syndicate is one of the few bands that have been a part of starting a new movement in the Rock world. With equal doses of The Velvet Underground, Black Flag, Neil Young and Bob Dylan, The Dream Syndicate helped create what would later be known as Alternative Rock. In this two part conversation, Steve Wynn and I track his personal musical journey, through his first band at 9 years old, all the way through his next solo album coming out this year.
Steve and I dig into his earliest musical influences, solo career, his friendship with Long Ryder's guitarist Stephen McCarthy as well as the rocket rise of The Dream Syndicate, the descent and demise of the band, and reforming many years later.
This was a wonderful and genuine conversation filled with great history, insight and candor by one of my favorite songwriters, Steve Wynn. I hope you enjoy it. Part 2 will be released on April 22, 2024, and we spend time talking about the Baseball Project, the shear power of early Dream Syndicate performances and the contrarian nature of their setlists.
