I first interviewed Dan in Philadelphia a few weeks ago while we were at Philly station WXPN for NON COMM-vention, a public radio conference. After that 45-minute conversation I discovered — as is every interviewer's worst nightmare — that the resulting sound file was only 12 minutes long. I was sad we lost that interview, but determined to do it again. As it turned out I was flying to Nashville the following week, so we wound up meeting at Easy Eye for a conversation that took place in the middle of the studio. His engineer set us up with a mixer and two microphones, in the very same room where Waiting On A Song was born. We had this free-flowing conversation, that included playing the music that inspired him to make Waiting On A Song and to create his own record label, which shares a name with his studio.

Mayfield, in turn, was raised in singing and bluegrass almost next door – in Kent, Ohio, a half-hour's drive from Akron. "As soon as I heard her, I needed to know who she was," Auerbach recalls. "Her family was a traveling band, and she was writing these incredible songs, funny and witty. I couldn't believe it. We started getting together and writing stuff. Those bluegrass harmonies – that's what really connected us."

It was just a phrase in a song," Auerbach insists. "If I'd found a record by somebody called Keep It Hid, with that cover" – an odd-angle closeup of Auerbach playing an exotically sculpted mid-Sixties Japanese-budget-brand guitar – "I would have bought it," he adds, laughing. I mean, there are just so many musicians everywhere — and some of the greatest musicians, that made some of my favorite records of all time. I mean that's it. That's why I came here. In fact, many of those musicians are on [my] new record [ Waiting On A Song]. Duane Eddy [is one of them]. I met him a few years ago, through a mutual friend of ours. We went out and had lunch, but I really got to know Duane when he first came to the studio, because he walked in and his eyes lit up. I could just tell that he loved being in a studio. So he was one of us, you know? From there both the man’s work prospects and the condition of his house plant simultaneously improve, culminating with him taking the now much healthier plant to a job interview.
