Giles Reaves often makes it a point to stop at our house on his long road between his two main places of work, Nashville and Salt Lake City.
My wife and daughters love Giles (not something I can say about every musician who’s ever slept on our couch), and he and I can happily sit up and talk about everything and nothing until the wee hours if that’s all we’re in the mood for.
