The Moment With Brian Koppelman

Aimee Mann, one of the best songwriters of our generation, joins Brian this week to discuss the evolution of her music, the time she spent with 'Til Tuesday, and the way Aimee thinks about creating songs. Also, Brian and Aimee discuss an event prior to the "Whatever" album that impacted the both of them professionally and creatively. Plus, Aimee falls in love with a lyric from Jason Isbell's new album, talks about the importance of form and self-awareness as an artist, and how lately she's simply trying to be a more mature person.   Topic Mentioned: Chronicles by Bob Dylan Paul Giamatti's interview on The Moment: 7/20/15 Coming Up Close: Retrospective by 'Til Tuesday Whatever by Aimee Mann Charmer by Aimee Mann The Both by Aimee Mann and Ted Leo I'm With Stupid by Aimee Mann Something More Than Free by Jason Isbell "24 Frames" by Jason Isbell The Forgotten Arm by Aimee Mann @#%&*!
