The Alan Munson Interview

Born in Northwestern, Pennsylvania before eventually settling in Santa Barbara, California, Munson had a west coast life growing up and would soon pick up the guitar at the age of nine. Once The Beatles hit the scene, it was on. He was heavily influenced by the likes of The Hollies, Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young as his music horizons expanded and at the age of thirteen he was in his first band. He participated in a few different psych outfits throughout the 60’s before meeting his longtime friend and bandmate Bill Cooley. Together the two released the cult classic “In Debt”. Throughout the 70s, Munson would go on to release more wonderful works as well as harnessing and mastering his craft throughout the years. In this interview we explore Munson’s youth spending his formative years in Santa Barbara, playing in local psych outfits, meeting Bill Cooley, writing and recording a wonderful body of work throughout the years and much more!
