TRANSCRIPT Bullseye with Jesse Thorn: Dougie Poole on the song that changed his life

Dougie Poole is a Maine-based singer-songwriter. He makes country music, but it’s not your standard country fare. His music is a little more experimental and a lot more psychedelic. When we asked Dougie Poole to pick the song that changed his life, it’s no surprise that he chose a song off the beaten track. It wasn’t a tune from Dolly Parton or Garth Brooks. The song was “Black Country” from the psychedelic noise rock duo Tonstartssbandht. And it inspired a college-aged Dougie Poole to start making music of his own.
