There I was, all ready for the first edition of The Music Box LIVE!! for 2022, a brief lookback at some personal highlights of 2021, and I had technical issues in the studio so it didn't happen!Rather than waste the preparation, I thought I would simply put it together as a podcast..............the show that got away, as it were!  :-)So, here it be.  I dedicate this two hours to good friend and all round nice guy Steve Hodson, who sadly passed away recently after battling illness.  In truth, it was hard to get my mojo to do this, but Steve would have said "do it pal", so onwards we go.  Rest well Steve, love you mate and no doubt I'll see you at some of those great gigs on the other side. xxWill Downing - Stand Up (US Sophisticated Soul Promo MP3 2021)Alvin Garrett feat.

This Week on "We Are More Than: The Podcast" KL has the great pleasure of sitting down with Grammy nominated songwriter Alvin Garrett. This conversation is extremely inspiring. KL gets the opportunity to be in the presence of a legend in the making.

Alvin Garrett is not interested in partial truths, and in this conversation we cover a broad range of topics, which several times circled back to the issue of real empathy, which Alvin affirmed, cannot be forced through a sense of guilt or in any other way. If you, as a ‘white' person, have ever felt uneasy about talking to a Black person, for fear of saying the wrong thing, or making the wrong move, Alvin helps to clarify the root cause of that frustration. And he follows that insight with a view from the Black person's perspective. He explains that we need to stop trying to prove to each other what we are, and what we are not, let our ‘guards' down, and start connecting from that place of openness. We go on to talk about Braver Angels, a highly effective nonprofit organization to which he and I, independently, have found a home for engaging in the process of bringing Americans together to listen and learn from each other (rather than listening to the media's inflammatory soundbites) in order to, with mutual respect, bridge the destructive partisan divides for the purpose of strengthening our democratic republic for everyone's benefit. Alvin's viewpoint on the reason that George Floyd's murder triggered a global response brings this conversation to a whole other level… and… if you've ever wondered, as I often have, how some Black people, in spite of all the challenges they live with, on a daily basis, just by being Black in America, how they only grow stronger - maintaining their freedom from the toxicity of negativity, you will definitely appreciate Alvin's answer. The part of our conversation about privilege and white privilege is pure gold… and just to give you a quick heads up: guilt has no value and no place in what he suggests we can do with our white privilege to make a positive difference. And… we concluded with some of our combined thoughts on critical thinking: its importance, its obstacles, its challenges, and its rewards. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/onewhitewoman/message

On The Guest: Alvin Garrett is a grammy-nominated songwriter, music artist, producer, bassist, and sound engineer. He also teaches songwriting with a charity called the Dannon project - a re-entry program for at-risk populations. Although he doesn't like to label his music in any particular genre, the best I can say is you won't hear soul music like this anywhere else. From this conversation you'll learn: The importance of preparation for a major career change How to deal with a change in title and judgement from others Ways to re-introduce yourself to the world How to build your tolerance for disappointing others and care more about disappointing yourself The power of honesty in building relationships A new approach to empathy How the pandemic has connected the human race How to allow room for your dreams to come true The importance of finding yourself in order to find your sound Why your creative outlet needs direction How to overcome writer's block The connection between creativity and divinity The definition of true masculinity and the strength in being gentle And so much more!

To describe or define Alvin Garrett with a singular title may be a near impossible task. However, after getting to know him, one would have to agree that he is certainly a Pioneer of Inspirational Soul. This Alabama-born-and-raised preacher's son, has woven over twenty years of diverse experience in the entertainment industry with the common thread of hope and inspiration. Whether its R&B, Gospel, Pop, or Jazz, you will recognize Garrett's inspirational fingerprint in all his music and business endeavors. Garrett's masterful songwriting, captivating smile, and spine-tingling voice is reminiscent of soul music legends, Sam Cooke and Al Green. This honorable comparison began in 2015 with the release of the soul-riveting song, “By Myself,” which many still compare to the timeless and epic nature of Sam Cooke's “A Change is Gonna Come.” In the summer of 2020, the Grammy-nominated songwriter continued to carry the torch of musical activism with his thought provoking EP, The Awakening. With the weight of the Covid-19 pandemic and the heaviness of social unrest, Alvin Garrett crafted a collection of songs that sought to speak to and awaken the Soul of America. Now, Garrett is lifting spirits and lightening the mood with his beautiful new project, The Lightness of Love. Garrett, himself, has traveled a long road in his musical career. Not only is he a business owner, professional bassist, music and event producer, recording and performing artist, he is an award-winning songwriter. He has written and arranged songs for Joe, Kelly Rowland, Fantasia, Johnny Gill, Ruben Studdard, Noel Gourdin, Jordan Knight, Deitrick Hadden, Trin-I-Tee 5:7, and many others. In addition to a Grammy nomination, Garrett has won a Soul Train Award, a Dove Award, and a Stellar Award. Garrett's 2012 debut album, Expose Yourself, was critically acclaimed by many as one of the sexiest smooth R&B albums of our time. In 2019, he released his second full-length album, This HILL, which was his homage to life lessons and his personal philosophy…”Because of HOPE, I have the INSPIRATION to pursue what I LOVE at the risk of LOSS.” This project was also the foundation for his new independent label, HILL Entertainment. In 2015, Garrett's love for entertainment, education, and empowerment led to the development of an innovative songwriting program called, The Write Life. He currently teaches this amazing class with The Dannon Project, which is the country's #1 Department of Labor funded re-entry and social services agency based in Birmingham, AL. The Write Life has become a transformative tool for recruitment, engagement, retention, and motivation of their participants. Alvin says, “I absolutely love to motivate and encourage people by showing them how to utilize the power of words and music to sculpt their future.” Reach out to Alvin Garrett online @: Facebook: thealvingarrett Instagram: thealvingarrett Twitter: thealvingarrett YouTube: TheAlvinGarrett Website: AlvinGarrett.com Listen to Alvin Garrett's latest singles now on Spotify: The Lightness of Love - https://open.spotify.com/track/25jLTkmhOxGwAwov5tHz5O?si=f3693e4df2b14fbd Flowers https://open.spotify.com/track/48yQ8VSx8lxUOTXRx2JJtA?si=7eafe5a3ca95437b   For more information and news, check out our website and on social media: www.BringBackSoulMusic.com.

Continuing on with our HIGHLY engaged discussion. This time the panel consisted of a women, mothers and people of different nationalities and ethnicities. I serve primarily as moderator and producer and allow the panelists the opportunity to, as before, talk challenges, talk situations and talk plans of action. I posed three main questions to the panel: 1 - Protests are happening everywhere, literally globally in support of civil justice and people tired and disgusted with police using excessive force and overstepping bounds. What are you seeing in your area in regards to protests. 2 - Where should efforts be focused to help drive change in policy, law, perception and perspective? Is it as easy as get out and vote? Is it organizing citizen patrols. What can everyday citizens do today to drive change 3 - What messages are you sharing with your children, if you have them or the younger generation about what's happening now That intro track is from Grammy nominated songwriter, Alvin Garrett, who has given me exclusive permission to use his music for this roundtable. For that I want to acknowledge and thank him. You can find that song, “something's different this time” on all streaming platforms and you can follow his musical journey on his website alvingarrett.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hicksnewmedia/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hicksnewmedia/support

Nima, Niana nad JB talk to Alvin Garrett about his music career, Life and how he feels about changing what type of music the next generation listens to.

Alvin Garrett, journeyed to Birmingham, AL from Tuscaloosa, AL in 1996 to attend Samford University on a football scholarship. Over the next four years, Garrett earned a BSBA in Business Management and made Birmingham his permanent residence after graduation. After successfully working in Corporate America for a few years, Alvin took an intrepid leap of faith and resigned in order to pursue a career in the music business. Less than a year after resigning, Alvin was touring as the bass guitarist with his bandmate, Ruben Studdard, with the American Idol 2 Tour . Both Alvin and Ruben were founding members of the band, Just A Few Cats. After the AI2 Tour in 2003, Garrett continued on with Studdard as his bassist and musical director. While touring the country with his good friend, Alvin Garrett continued to hone his artistic skills that would ultimately expand his talents into the world of production and songwriting.

Shae’s melodic vocals graced legendary venues such as BB King, Rhythm Kitchen, Love Noise and Lucy Blu in addition to major music festivals such as the Spanish festival and the African Street Festival. This natural talent continues to practice live arts in true renaissance fashion, performing in urban theatre and currently recording her latest R&B album. Shae’s critically acclaimed team includes Grammy nominated producers Alvin Garrett, whose musical catalog includes Joe, Johnny Gill, and Ruben Studdard, producer Roger Ryan whose production and performance credits include Whitney Houston, Wynonna Judd, Faith Evans, Oleta Adams and Kirk Franklin and Michael J Gaines, whose musical credits includes Cher, Kelly Price, Eric Clapton, Anointed, The Pointer Sisters and Shirley Murdock.
