In the 1960s and 70s, Lee Friedlander took his family on long road trips across America. The pictures Lee took during these trips established him as one of America’s most celebrated photographers. His son Erik is now an innovative cellist and composer, and his solo record Block Ice and Propane recalls those family trips long ago.
Bonus Track: “Rushmore”
Erik Friedlander performs the song live in Studio 360.
