Will Butler talks about everything from the shock of winning a Grammy for album of the year, to his thoughts on music sharing and his working relationship with his brother, Win.
Thanks Laura and WTTS, great interview. I really appreciate your questions about music sharing and marketing. Finding bands like Arcade Fire (as well as the fantastic The National) remind me of the very first time I heard REM on the radio in the mid-80s. You become convinced you just formed a third brain lobe that you must instantly nurish with more of their sound and make them your own, as Will said.

Well done, Laura!
Laura, great interview. Thanks for digging in to music sharing questions, and in to the tour-band selection process. Very interesting.
