Tim Heidecker—musician, comedy trailblazer, actor, podcast host, producer, family man & more—is touring North America with his band, The Very Good Band, in support of his new album, Slipping Away, out now on Bloodshot Records. While all of his albums are concept records to some degree, Slipping Away tells a story on a larger scale, offering an imagistic framework that allows for some of his brightest melodies, heaviest themes, and most direct and vulnerable lyrics. In this clip we talk about the obscure calypso records made by Robert Mitchum
