The Wedding, The Funeral, and The Heart attack with Jon Sortland (The Shins, Broken Bells, Cigar)

The Musicians Guild welcomes Jon Sortland. Jon is a musician and drummer extraordinaire and plays in The Shins, Broken Bells, Cigar, EV Kain and Hot Summer. When he isn't touring or recording he also makes amazing music videos . In this episode we discuss his recent heart attack, his surgeon playing The Shins on the stereo while operating on his heart, his early days in Grass Valley, his first band in Bones skate parts, zoning out while on stage in Australia in front of 15,000 people, his low sodium diet, and the latest video he put together for The Shins performance on The Late Late Show with James Corden. We also talk about a LOT of other stuff as this is the longest conversation inside The Musicians Guild so far. Thanks for tuning in and supporting the show, you are wonderful.
