We’ve got an interview between host Marco Werman and Robbie Robertson, songwriter and lead guitarist for the iconic Canadian rock band, The Band. Robertson has a new solo album out and will also be a special guest in Nashville this weekend to commemorate The Band’s historic farewell concert, which was made into a documentary film by Martin Scorsese. And in September, Robertson was given the key to Toronto, the city where he’s from.
