Charleston, South Carolina’s Daniel Patrick joins us this week for a lively talk about mandolins, being a gigging musician, and meeting your heroes.
Daniel is the host of the popular Mandolins & Beer Podcast. He just released a great new album called Around the Clock where he does covers with an all-star array of fellow mandolin players (Sam Bush, Joe K. Walsh, Tim O’Brien, Ronnie McCoury, and others).
