Interview: Jason Loewenstein
– interview by gordon downs
For most fans of Sebadoh, Jason Loewenstein is merely “that other guy”. A stoned Jerry Lewis to Lou Barlow’s caustic Dean Martin. Though if you are a true Sebadoh fan, and listened to “Bakesale” incessantly throughout the latter part of the nineties, you know that Loewenstein isn’t just “that other guy”.
With Sebadoh currently on an indefinite hiatus, Loewenstein took the opportunity to record an album of his own songs. Though being a true D.I.Y. kinda guy, he recorded the whole album by himself on an analog reel-to-reel eight track. D.I.Y indeed! The result is his solo debut “At Sixes And Sevens”, a brilliant record that displays all his tunes stoned immaculate, unabashed and non “Barlow-ed” down. I had a chance to talk with Jason over some alcoholic beverages when he rolled through San Diego on his most recent outing.
