Robyn Hitchcock, along with Emma Swift, joins us at eTown this week to provide a glimpse into the mind of an eccentric “professional Englishman” who now lives in Nashville. Also joining us is heartfelt singer-songwriter Taylor Ashton, a Canadian transplant whose songs stir all the feels. Nick also has a conversation with Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser.

Our episode this week welcomes the singular Robyn Hitchcock back to the stage, joined by Emma Swift. With a career spanning decades, Robyn has carved out a world entirely his own, blending surreal lyricism, sharp wit and melodic invention across genres from psych-rock to acoustic folk. Now based in Nashville, his performances remain as unpredictable and captivating as ever, offering a window into a truly one-of-a-kind creative mind.

Also joining us is Taylor Ashton, a shape-shifting songwriter whose work moves fluidly between humor and vulnerability. Originally from Vancouver and now rooted in Brooklyn’s folk scene, Taylor pairs intricate storytelling with warm, expressive vocals and a playful perspective. 

eTown host Nick Forster also sits down with Phil Weiser, Colorado’s Attorney General, for an important conversation about the rule of law.
