Ahead of Big Thief’s headlining show at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday, Sept. 27, founding member and guitarist Buck Meek is making a special guest appearance on MBE. He’s here to talk catching early morning waves, the importance of lyrics, and busking with bandmate Adrianne Lenker in Washington Square Park.

Plus, he’s sharing some very solid tunes, including one from Big Thief’s Hollywood Bowl opener Noname. Press that player button for the full chat and some seriously sweet selects. And keep your ears perked for Big Thief’s forthcoming, sixth studio album Double Infinity, due Sept. 5 via 4AD.
