While in the AG studio, Dawes frontman Taylor Goldsmith talked about songwriting, guitar playing, and how it all comes together in the L.A. band’s nostalgic sounds, which are based on the folk-rock guitars and vocal harmonies of 1970s-era Laurel Canyon. (You’ll be forgiven if you initially confuse these guys for CSN or America in the clip!)
