Dean Wareham :: The Aquarium Drunkard Interview

“What they want you to be — yesterday’s hero, yesterday’s ghost,” Dean Wareham sings on his latest record, That’s the Price of Loving Me, released this spring on Carpark Records. But the album’s 10 masterful tracks prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Wareham isn’t fading away anytime soon. Bolstered by chiming guitars, sweet string arrangements and gorgeous backing vocals from Luna bassist Britta Phillips, it’s another masterpiece in a career full of them, stretching all the way back to Dean’s days with Galaxie 500.
