In conversation, Dave Stewart can spontaneously time-travel from where he sits in his home in Nashville to his 30s, his early childhood growing up in his parents’ row house in northwest England, to the early days of the Eurythmics or his stint living in Paris in the early ‘80s.

His stories pivot, divide and come back together a bit like the path of a river. Stewart, the Eurythmics co-founder, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member, producer, songwriter and screenwriter has spent the last few years considering the passage of time. It’s influenced much of his recent work, from rock opera and album Who to Love to his work with Joss Stone for the songbook to a theatrical adaptation of “The Time Traveler’s Wife,” which premiered late last year in the West End.

Stewart even explains the concept for his most recent album, jazz collection Cloud Walking, with a story that skips nearly 40 years back in time.
