Chris Cheek’s new album is Keepers of the Eastern Door. It features Bill Frisell, Tony Scherr, and Rudy Royston. In this interview, we talk about putting the band together; how the stories of indigenous people inspired the album; how a painting led to a voyage of discovery; and more.
A note that Chris was last on the show sixteen years ago with the band Rudder. After you listen to this episode, listen to that interview here.
