    31. It’s Been A Long Time Honey w/ Fox and Bones

    Scott Gilmore and Sarah Vitort are Fox and Bones - energetic offbeat folksters with a retro pop-rock bent who have been setting the world alight with a hand clapping, foot-stomping good time since 2016. The duo from Portland, OR joins host Corey Easterday to discuss their new record “Long Time Honey”, the sounds, themes, artistry, and studio process that went into making it, their growth as artists & people, & being forged in the fire Game of Thrones style. 
    Corey & Fox and Bones also chat about life on the road, the human need for connection, stability, & nature, the business of music & supporting your favorite artists, Corey’s impressive (?) pop culture recall, & so much more.
