hobart bros and lil sis hobartThe Hobart Brothers and 'Lil Sis Hobart, made up of songwriters Freedy Johnston, Jon Dee Graham, and Susan Cowsill, first came together during the annual SXSW Music Festival in Austin, and found that they each shared a common history of working in the kitchens of numerous restaurants in their younger days (Hobart is a reference to the most famous industrial dishwasher).  After recording demos last year, the band launched a successful Kickstarter program that helped fund At Least We've Got Each Other, the band's debut album.  Icon Fetch talks with Freedy Johnston about how they put this unique band together, and how they used modern technology to help collaborate from long distance.  He also talks about his forthcoming solo album and his breakthrough hit, 1995's "Bad Reputation."
