About this episode
Welcome back to Transmissions with Jason Woodbury. This week, Steve Lillywhite, a producer who's had as pivotal a role in shaping your host's musical taste as anyone. In this conversation, Lillywhite opens up about working with artists like Dave Matthews Band, U2, Phish, XTC, The La's, Marshall Crenshaw, The Killers, and more. From The Joshua Tree to Billy Breathes , from Before These Crowded Streets to Field Day , Lillywhite speaks about it all, the influence of dub, his production approach, and more. Lillywhite is somebody we've wanted to have on this show very long time, and we were excited to ring him up. Big thanks to Grayson Haver Currin , the incredible critic and writer you are no doubt familiar with, for helping connect us to Steve.
