Jay McCarrol

Musician, composer and Nirvanna the Band the Show co-creator Jay McCarrol joins Angus Truskett to discuss Tony, the new A24 film starring Dominic Sessa as a young Anthony Bourdain. It’s a conversation about movie scores, creative instinct and nearly two decades of making things with Matt Johnson. We get into: the E.T. score that changed everything for Jay, finding the sparse and creaky sound of Tony, how he knows when a piece of music is actually working, his shorthand with Matt Johnson, The Sopranos, what’s next for Nirvanna the Band—and the Canadian film everyone should watch.
