Gillian Welch and David Rawlings introduced themselves to the world 30 years ago with their seminal Americana recording Revival. Now, they’re tapping their shared youthful love of the Grateful Dead on an extensive tour celebrating the 45th anniversary of the live acoustic album Reckoning. In between, the duo/couple has made an indelible mark on American roots, with Grammy Awards and an Americana lifetime achievement award for songwriting. Just before the tour’s launch with a pair of Brooklyn Bowl shows last weekend, Craig caught up with Gillian Welch for this Q&A.
