John Anderson was struggling with the issue that is every musician’s nightmare: in the midst of a serious illness that had forced him off the road, his hearing disappeared. Singing and playing his guitar, the way the “Seminole Wind” singer had been doing as a profession for more than 40 years, seemed like a thing of the past.

“I was almost 100 percent deaf there for about 6 or 7 months, due to different things. But nobody could really put a finger on what had happened or why,” Anderson says, calling from his home in Smithville, Tennessee, where he’s hunkered down in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As he was recovering, and slowly regaining at least some of his hearing, Anderson received a phone call from Jeremy Tepper, program director of Sirius XM’s Outlaw Country. Tepper wanted to introduce him to Dan Auerbach, the producer and member of the blues-rock duo the Black Keys. Anderson was vaguely familiar with the group.

Auerbach, on the other hand, was already a fan of Anderson’s work, and invited him to come visit his Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville, where albums by Yola, Kendell Marvel, and Marcus King had been recorded.
