Helping Hand - August 5, 2016 complete interview with James Williamson of The Stooges

On Helping Hand today we’re learning about how James Williamson of Iggy Pop & The Stooges fame, alongside artist Lisa Kekaula of the Bellrays, have new music that is a 100% benefit for homeless children in Hawai‘i, with benefactor Project Hawaii. I Love My T?t? and B-side Never Far From Where The Wild Things Are, are out now on itunes and August 12 as a 7” through Amazon and other music retailers. HPR ATC Host Dave Lawrence speaks with James Williamson about it.
