ARTIST: Caleb Groh
SONG: “Hapless Dreamer“
BIRTHDATE: 7/8/91
HOMETOWN: New London, CT (born in New London, bred up and down the West and East coast, always on the water)
CURRENT LOCATION: Nashville, TN (landlocked)
AMBITIONS: Foremost, to be present. Secondly, be ready for the future, and to think of the past least of the three- and to ride this life out, 300,000 mile style.
TURN-OFFS: Self-doubt, self-pity, and judgement of personalities one doesn’t relate to or understand. Is that too heavy?
TURN-ONS: Floral anything, gold glitter, warm hearts, girls who dig Zimmerman.
DREAM GIG: Being anonymously rich and famous, while waiting tables in some small town to keep me humble (joke’s on them, you can’t fire me, etc.)
FAVORITE LYRIC: Don’t have a single favorite, but eat this up: “God is a concept by which we measure our pain” -John Lennon
CRAZIEST PERSON I KNOW: My first boss nicknamed herself El Pollo, and she would often scream, “Strength to carry on!” and fall to the floor. My little brother is crazier.
SONG I WISH I WROTE: The Swimming Song – Loudon Wainwright III
5 PEOPLE I’D MOST LIKE TO HAVE DINNER WITH: Dick Van Dyke, Bonnie Hunt, Klaus Voormann, Roberto Benigni, and I just had dinner with my great friend(Cynthia)’s father, Mark Anderson, last week, but I would like to do it again. He talked about landscaping and Delphi in a way that almost made me cry.
MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: Having Bob Dylan peek out from behind the tour bus, give a little wave, and then dissolve into the Cincinnati night.
