Alejandro Escovedo - Recovering From Illness

Posted on Jun 17th 2008 by

Photographer Christopher McLallen did more than just shoot Alejandro Escovedo for the debut issue of BLURT – he got the Austin songwriter to sit down and play some music and answer a few questions about his live and his music. In this clip Escovedo talks about what he learned from going through a life-threatening illness and how it impacted his role as an artist.
