Caedmon's Call - July 9th, 2001 This is from a 20 minute interview that I had with Derek Webb and Cliff Young of Caedmon's Call. A friend of mine from my church, Shannon Reed, helped me with the interview. The bold text is our questions/comments to them, and everything else is their replies. Some unnecessary text has been removed, and some sentences have been tweaked to make them more readable. Here's the interview: Mickey: Caedmon's Call - The name. Cliff: Caedmon was a poet/songwriter/monk between the 7th and 8th century. Mickey: More or less, how did the band come together? Derek: My answer is one word - and it's Cliff.
Cliff: I'll do the first few years… Derek: and then I'll take over. Cliff: I started the band, my wife and I, and a guy named Aaron Tate, who still writes for us. Derek: This is the place where I came in. Cliff: And then Derek came. Shannon: So it was just the three of you? Derek: Well, actually, it was the two of them and this other girl - they all went to church together.
