The Lookout with Danny G

Danny Groenland

This is a series of short episodes about the making of the album The Lookout 🌃 by Danny G & the Major 7ths. It‘s a track-by-track deep dive, inspired by the Song Exploder podcast. I talk about the inspiration, creation and recording of each song, using musical stems and interviewing some of my collaborators and musicians.
