Josh Ritter: Not a Kid Anymore

Studio 360
The World

Josh Ritter says that his 2010 album So Runs the World Away is evidence that he’s not a kid anymore. He tells Kurt about feeling grown up when he was 8 years-old and, as he gets older, wanting to protect the childlike part of himself. And Ritter reveals the secret to curing his writer’s block: New York City’s late night armada of garbage trucks.
