I'm pretty sure he produced/recorded some of their songs. No idea if he toured with them but that would be pretty cool

There was an old guy who used to sometimes tour with them playing guitar. I can't remember if it was Seasick Steve or some other old guy.

He was awesome though.

No, it was way before Johnny Marr played with them. This was probably in the late Nineties. He was older than Marr as well.

Ah. I must confess I only really know Johnny Marr as the old dude that played with Modest Mouse for a while.

I just had this Marr/Troy McClure Mashup come very vividly.

I'll check the new one out.
The Moon and Antarctica is my favorite Modest Mouse album. (And, Johnny Marr is the man!)
I haven't heard the new record, but I like that Coyotes song a lot.
edit:
Heads Up! They are preforming on CBS This Morning - Saturday, tomorrow morning.

It may've been Isaac Brock's old guitar teacher?

I have no idea. I like Modest Mouse well enough but I don't listen to them all that often.

Yeah, IDK. I like Modest Mouse well enough, but I'm not crazy about 'em.
They just played at the Middle East a lot when I worked there. So, I've seen them play a bunch.
Whoever he was, that old guy was a really good guitarist.
