Show non this episode, we take a detour into Dannyland, i.e., the world of Danny Cohen. Born and raised in L.A. and currently living in Chico, Calif., the elusive singer-songwriter nonetheless has several ties to San Francisco and the Bay Area. In addition to living there at various points, he has also written many songs about (or at least set in) the Bay Area, and one of his most frequent collaborators, saxophonist Ralph Carney, was a local fixture for decades.
