Episode 17: Vicki Peterson
In our interview, Vicki shares how she and her Bangles band mates were hands-on, not only in recording, arranging, producing and performing, but also in plotting the band's course and crafting its image. We chat about her collaborations with Susan Cowsill, her Americana excursion with Continental Drifters, how The Norton Anthology provided inspiration for song, her trusty copy of a book by lyricist Sammy Cahn, her annual gig mentoring young songwriters at the California State Polytechnic University at Pamona, and much more.
