A.V. Club Interview: The Raconteurs

Thursday, September 7th, 2006

The Onion A.V. Club has an interview with The Raconteurs. I haven’t heard much of The Raconteurs’ music outside of “Steady As She Goes”, but I have been listening to Brendan Benson’s excellent One Mississippi a lot over the past couple weeks.
