Jack Barksdale began writing songs at age seven. Now 19, he’s just released the EP Battleground, a collection of topical songs that expand upon his already prodigious gifts.
Barksdale recently spoke with me about this collection of songs, the story of folk singer Phil Ochs, and why and how he continues to broaden the scope of his artistic endeavors.
