“ I usually bring along a keyboardist,” Penn says, and longtime friend and writing partner Bobby Emmons fills the role on the current tour. “He’s one of the greatest session players ever, and one of the greatest keyboard players ever, also. We’ve been going out and around for two years now and I’ve been enjoying it very much. He’s got a keyboard that makes all kinds of sounds and I play an acoustic, an old Martin guitar. I’m not that great a player, and every once in a while, I’ll miss a chord, and Bobby will be right there.”
