Mike Campbell (The Heartbreakers, guitarist & founding member)

The legendary Mike Campbell covers a number of topics that include how his father influenced his appreciation of music, the cultural impact of The Beatles’ performance on The Ed Sullivan Show, his approach to songwriting, the decision to leave the University of Florida to join Mudcrutch, how he collaborates with Tom Petty, fronting his club band The Dirty Knobs, his perspective on artistic evolution, his thoughts on recording & producing music and how his favorite new guitars compare to his vintage instruments. He also talks about his involvement with the Tazzy Animal Rescue Fund, which is a non-profit that rescues dogs, gets them medical attention and helps them find good homes, often with veterans who suffer from PTSD, are physically injured or simply need the companionship that only a dog can provide.
