HPR All Things Considered Host Dave Lawrence continues two days on Road Stories with the rock group America, and the voice of many of their biggest songs, guitarist/singer/songwriter Dewey Bunnell.
They play Kahuluiand Honolulunext week.
Today we get into how the band members' military families reacted to their kids' counterculture aspirations; late co-founder Dan Peek's departure and connection to religion; how David Geffen and David Crosby factor into their career; and some great memories of playing the Diamond Head Crater Festival!
Also we've posted the complete new interview below and links to many previous conversations with the band America, plus two video interviews with the band, and fun photos taken several years apart.
