Interview: M. Ward

Ok... a very brief interview. Given what a mess Golden Gate Park is (and just gonna get better as the weekend begins), we feel luck we were able to get out with a few gems from M. Ward. Ward is taking a break from his current project, She and Him, to go back to his roots. Catch his set at the Outside Lands Festival on Saturday-- it should be very, very good.
