John Doe of X and The Knitters discusses complex relationships on his new album ”Fables in a Foreign Land.”

John Doe is a founding member of the seminal LA punk band “X.” The band defined the West Coast sound of punk in the early days and broke ground in the new style of music. Since his days in that band John has done a plethora of projects including movies, TV, and his own folk band as well. He’s one of those artists that, to me at least, is a prototype of what it means to be a creative person. His music, and art is hard to define. He takes risks and asks difficult questions. All the while making creative pieces that resonate with people and asks them to be self reflective and honest. He released a solo album this year and I got a chance to chat with him about the record as well as other projects he’s currently working on. I hope you dig it!
