spoke to Heidecker via Zoom in advance of his San Antonio show. The call was at 8 a.m. LA time, though his well-known wit wasn’t dulled by the early hour.

You’ve got some comedic improv chops, obviously. How do you react in your real life when someone says, “Hey, Tim, say something funny!” It’s a big undertaking to decide to do 30 or 40 cities. There’s a lot that goes into it. I wanted to do a solo tour that reflected all the music I’ve been putting out. And I’ve never really toured the standup. So, there’s a lot of versions of me out there, you know, making stuff. There’s mypodcast. A lot of different ways I could tour. Through writing and talking about it with a lot of people, it felt like there’s a good show there that’s half my standup character and half my music life.

You’re clearly a fan of indie rock and guitar music. And yet “the kids” — as we’ll call them — love their hip-hop, their pop and so forth. What do you see as the future of guitar music in 20 years?
