Thanks to eclectic publishing house McSweeney's, Beck's latest collection of songs found life in the form of sheet music, accompanied by original artwork inspired by the 30's and 40's. Jason Bentley had a chance to talk to the artist, and Jordan Bass of McSweeney's, about the Song Reader project at a recent event at Sonos Studio. We’ll also hear a few interpretations of the songs by New York based artist Amy Ragan and The End of America. (10am)
