Loneliness is not new, but it has been trending. Making the most of a possibly tragic situation, Brian Lohmann has taken it and made it his own, kept it his own…as there’s only him.
Lohmann and his accompanist J. Raoul Brody join Sarah for an interview. And will not be alone.
In the words/lyrics of Three Dog Night….. “One - is the loneliest number you’ll ever know.”
