Austin Pedicab ride with Nate Cook

After checking out the Whiskey Shivers at The White Horse with Boulder alt-country rockers The Yawpers, we needed a lift.

To get back to Sixth Street from the venue in East Austin, we grabbed a pedicab ride. As we zoomed through the rowdy crowds, Ashley decided to interview The Yawpers’ frontman, Nate Cook. The results were brief and a little sloppy, but they’re telling.

Here, we learn the “deep, dark secret” of Cook’s songwriting as we take the “bike-way to hell.”
