Few people in the indie-rock world have had three separate successful careers. Lou Barlow is known as much for his solo work as for his tenure as the bassist in Dinosaur Jr. and as the founder of the alt-country/folk supergroup Sebadoh.

Dinosaur Jr.'s newest release, "Farm," comes at the same time as Barlow's latest solo album, "Goodnight Unknown."

He stopped by The Current studios for a live performance.

Songs performed: "Sharing," "Too Much Freedom" and "Take Advantage."
