Episode 013: Andrew MacLeod

I Quit My Job: A Podcast About Songwriting

The youngest of six, Andrew MacLeod is one of only two among his siblings born in his late father Alistair’s homeland of Cape Breton. Inviting Travis and Derek to the West Windsor family home still inhabited by his mother, Andrew spoke to them of the angst of being the youngest, the ties he feels to Cape Breton and Nova Scotia, and the pressures of playing in a band when you should probably have grown up by now. As the frontman for Years of Ernest, sporting a brand new full-length record, Andrew shares some wisdom about the value of working with people you trust and putting your heart into every show.
