David Fricke sure knows how to conduct an interview! What a joy it was to sit down with the legendary music journalist at SiriusXM’s studios in New York.
The interview airs tonight (9/26) at 8pm ET / 5pm PT on SiriusXM’s Tom Petty Radio.
I filmed this 4-track cassette version of Fade Away Blue’s “Fading Fast” a while back, but wanted to save it until the record was out. Having just returned from dates on the East Coast, now feels like a great time to share this song about life on the road.

Thanks to Peter Blackstock for reviewing Fade Away Blue in the latest Founders Keepers column in No Depression.

IT'S BANDCAMP FRIDAY! If you’ve been thinking about pre-ordering a physical copy of Fade Away Blue, today is a great day to do so. Today, Bandcamp waives its fees, and 100% goes straight to the artist.
Plus, you can take advantage of introductory pricing on a very special LP variant.
“Song for Barbara Ann” addresses the other side of the adoption coin from my previous single, “You Called Me Kid.” It speaks to the ambiguous grief I experienced when I decided to search for my birth mother, only to discover she had died just months earlier. For more, visit me on Substack.

‘From the Sketchbook’ is a series of Substack posts where I pull the curtain back on my songwriting process.
In my latest installment, you can hear several rough phone sketches and listen as they evolve from mumbly gibberish into a keeper chorus. petedroge.substack.com/p/you-called...
A taste of the new single, "You Called Me Kid." Thanks to director John Jeffcoat for conceiving the concept of crowd-sourcing photos and for executing on it so skillfully. #youcalledmekid #petedroge #fadeawayblue

My Dad passed away ten years ago to the day as I write this. I miss him all the time. Especially today. This is not only because of the anniversary, but also because we are putting the finishing touches on the music video for the song I wrote for him after he passed.

On Friday, May 9, Elaine and I will take the stage at The Moore Theater in Seattle to play a couple of songs to honor beloved music journalist Charles R. Cross. Check the poster to see the stellar lineup.
