In this compelling episode of Carolina Calling, host David Menconi delves into the indelible legacy of Nina Simone, an iconic figure in American music. Born in Tryon, North Carolina, Nina Simone's journey unfolds through the rich tapestry of the Jim Crow South. Jaki Shelton Green, North Carolina's esteemed poet laureate, joins the conversation to explore Simone's enduring impact on African American culture and the Civil Rights Movement.Menconi shares, "One of the great voices of American song, Nina Simone was a definitive voice of 20th century American music. Her voice, music and legacy all continue to resonate today, more than two decades since Simone's death at age 70. She remains a guiding star for multiple artists across styles and genres."Simone's artistry, rooted in the mountains of North Carolina, becomes a symbol of resilience and creative activism. From navigating the challenges of segregation to crafting poetry that echoes the quest for justice and freedom, Nina Simone's legacy serves as a timeless source of inspiration. Join us in this exploration of truth and perseverance as we unravel the multifaceted impact of Nina Simone on American music and culture.Music featured in this episode:Nina Simone - "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to Be Free"Nina Simone - "Sinnerman"Carolina Calling is produced by The Bluegrass Situation and Come Hear NC.

For his next pick of an album that has, “been around awhile” Shane selects Mandolin Orange's 2015 release, “Such Jubilee.” Mandolin Orange (now known as Watchhouse since a name change last year) is an Americana/Folk duo from North Carolina formed in 2009 by husband and wife duo Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz. Shane has special memories with this band seeing them live with his father. Trevor's introduction to the band was their 2019 release which Shane had recommended when Album Divers was in its infancy though never materialized as a deep dive episode. This 2015 release was written by the couple while on the road, but recorded back at home in North Carolina and offers a stripped down aesthetic which allows the listener to absorb lyrics offering little worlds about the importance of savoring the moment in the context of love, loss, and generational connection. This album represents the first revelation by Shane of a trio of albums that he purchased on vinyl for Trevor as a surprise gift. The next two will be revealed to both him and the Album Divers audience in due time. Stay tuned. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ HOW TO CONNECT WITH ALBUM DIVERS: *You can submit your questions or comments about this episode or anything else on your mind here via our text line at: (502) 792-8080 *Leave us an audio message here: https://www.speakpipe.com/AlbumDivers We promise to respond and may even feature your thoughts on a future episode. *Follow us on Facebook and Instagram at Album Divers *Email us at Albumdiverspodcast@gmail.com *Please subscribe and review wherever you get your podcasts!
Known as the Gate City, Greensboro, North Carolina is a transitional town: hub of the Piedmont between the mountain high country to the west and coastal Sandhill Plains to the east, and a city defined by the people who have come, gone, and passed through over the years. As a crossroads location, it has long been a way station for many endeavors, including touring musicians - from the likes of the Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix at the Greensboro Coliseum, the state's largest indoor arena, to James Brown and Otis Redding at clubs like the El Rocco on the Chitlin' Circuit. Throw in the country and string band influences from the textile mill towns in the area, and the regional style of the Piedmont blues, and you've got yourself quite the musical melting pot. This historical mixture was not lost on one of Greensboro's own, Rhiannon Giddens - one of modern day Americana's ultimate crossover artists. A child of black and white parents, she grew up in the area hearing folk and country music, participating in music programs in local public schools, and eventually going on to study opera at Oberlin Conservatory in Ohio. Once she returned to North Carolina and came under the study of fiddler Joe Thompson and the Black string band tradition, she began playing folk music and forged an artistic identity steeped in classical as well as vernacular music. In this episode of Carolina Calling, we spoke with Giddens about her background in Greensboro and how growing up mixed and immersed in various cultures, in a city so informed by its history of segregation and status as a key civil rights battleground, informed her artistic interests and endeavors, musical styles, and her mission in the music industry. Subscribe to Carolina Calling to follow along as we journey across the Old North State, visiting towns like Durham, Wilmington, Shelby, Asheville, and more.

The image of bluegrass is mountain music played and heard at high altitudes and towns like Deep Gap and remote mountain hollers across the Appalachians. But the earliest form of the music originated at lower elevations, in textile towns across the North Carolina Piedmont. As far back as the 1920s, old-time string bands like Charlie Poole's North Carolina Ramblers were playing an early form of the music in textile towns, like Gastonia, Spray, and Shelby - in Cleveland County west of Charlotte.In this second episode of Carolina Calling, we visit the small town of Shelby: a seemingly quiet place, like most small Southern towns one might pass by in their travels. Until you see the signs for the likes of the Don Gibson Theatre and the Earl Scruggs Center, you wouldn't guess that it was the town that raised two of the most influential musicians and songwriters in bluegrass and country music: Earl Scruggs, one of the most important musicians in the birth of bluegrass, whose banjo playing was so innovative that it still bears his name, “Scruggs style,” and Don Gibson, one of the greatest songwriters in the pop & country pantheon, who wrote “I Can't Stop Loving You,” “Sweet Dreams,” and other songs you know by heart. For both Don Gibson and Earl Scruggs, Shelby is where it all began.Subscribe to Carolina Calling to follow along as we journey across the Old North State, visiting towns like Greensboro, Durham, Wilmington, Asheville, and more.Brought to you by The Bluegrass Situation and Come Hear NCMusic featured in this episode:Charlie Poole & The North Carolina Ramblers - "Take a Drink On Me"Flatt & Scruggs - "Ground Speed"Don Gibson - "I Can't Stop Loving You"Andrew Marlin - "Erie Fiddler" (Carolina Calling Theme)Hedy West - "Cotton Mill Girl"Blind Boy Fuller - "Rag Mama, Rag"Don Gibson - "Sea Of Heartbreak"Patsy Cline - "Sweet Dreams "Ray Charles - "I Can't Stop Loving You"Ronnie Milsap - "(I'd Be) A Legend In My Time"Elvis Presley - "Crying In The Chapel"Hank Snow - "Oh Lonesome Me"Don Gibson - "Sweet Dreams"Don Gibson - "Oh Lonesome Me"Chet Atkins - "Oh Lonesome Me"Johnny Cash - "Oh, Lonesome Me"The Everly Brothers - "Oh Lonesome Me"Neil Young - "Oh Lonesome Me"Flatt & Scruggs - "Foggy Mountain Breakdown"Bill Preston - "Holy, Holy, Holy"Flat & Scruggs - "We'll Meet Again Sweetheart"Snuffy Jenkins - "Careless Love"Bill Monroe - "Uncle Pen"Bill Monroe - "It's Mighty Dark to Travel"The Earl Scruggs Revue - "I Shall Be Released"The Band - "I Shall Be Released"Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - "Will The Circle Be Unbroken"The Country Gentlemen - "Fox on the Run"Sonny Terry - "Whoopin' The Blues"Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee - "Born With The Blues (Live)"Nina Simone - "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free"Cover image courtesy of the Don Gibson TheatreAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
Welcome to Roadcase, a podcast exploring the live music experience!! Join us for this fascinating conversation with Andrew Marlin of Watchhouse, formerly known as Mandolin Orange, whose latest album entitled "Watchhouse" was released earlier this year. Andrew is a super chill human and this conversation ran really deep as we talked about his profoundly personal songwriting and the cathartic effect it has had on Andrew both in writing his songs but also in putting them out there for fans to hear and experience. His deep and gorgeous voice propels his songs to a seemingly other dimension but that emotional ride has not been easy for Andrew, forcing him to open up while also helping him come to terms with many challenges he has faced in his own life. Andrew and his wife, Emily Frantz, have been on the road for over a decade now and began with open mics and a decidedly DIY operation -- now that hard work on the road has paid off recently with their headlining show at Red Rocks in October of this year. So hop on the Roadcase bus for this illuminating interview with a stellar human, Andrew Marlin of Watchhouse. It's a great ride!!For more information: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: info@roadcasepod.comTheme music: "Eugene" (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
In this episode, I will teach you the 10 kinds of guitar snobs, what they LOVE to say and how to overcome their personalities — once and for all! Learn how to keep your ego in check when it comes to playing guitar or learning music theory! Guitar snobs can be a difficult obstacle on your guitar journey. However, it's important to remember that there is a deeper, psychological reason behind the snobbery and trolling. After years of experience in dealing with all the different kinds of guitar snobbery, elitism, and egotism, I've discovered the root of all of it: guitar playing. It may sound like circular logic, but I want you to hear me out on this. Once you understand why these folks act the way that they do, you can overcome their attempts to make you feel insecure and gain greater mental strength and clarity on your guitar journey. Besides chatting about guitar snobs, you'll get the chance to try out a new lick and see it used in a musical context! Let me know in the comments if you dig this new segment! Last but not least, you'll get a dose of acoustic guitar news you can use! Featured this week… Trevor Gordon Hall and "This Beautiful Chaos" Billy Strings and "Renewal" Watchhouse and Andrew Marlin's custom guitar
We speak with musicians Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz about their new album, "Watchhouse." Watchhouse is also the new name of the duo's band, formerly known as Mandolin Orange. And, former U.S. military interpreter Zamzama Safi speaks with us about her evacuation from Afghanistan on the day Kabul fell. Safi had help from the office of Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a Democrat of Missouri, and has arrived in the state to start a new life.

Help produce Basic Folk by contributing at basicfolk.com/donateTwo years into starting his band Mandolin Orange, Andrew Marlin and his partner Emily Franz were having second thoughts about their band name. Nine years later, they announced their new name: Watchhouse. It's easy to understand why it took so long: they were putting out records, gaining momentum and quickly establishing themselves with this funny meaningless band name: Andrew had an orange mandolin and he named the band as such. What's harder to grasp is that Andrew Marlin is an individual whose every action, output and intention is incredibly thoughtful and filled to the brim with meaning. On the pod, he talks about the new band name's origin: it's named after a place he would visit as teen in the Chesapeake Bay. It was a quiet place where he would spend a lot of time in silence and communion, and he talks about why he wanted to bring that essence to the sound of Watchhouse.Andrew was born and raised in a small North Carolina town surrounded by the musical women in his family: his grandmother, mom and sisters played piano in church growing up and he was surrounded by a lot of hymns and old songs. He bought a guitar 14 after saving up his own earnings from the nearby farm store (it took three long weeks to save!) and began to write songs. He moved to Chapel Hill in 2008 to dig into the music community, meeting Emily at an impromptu jam one year later. There, he met his match, started a band and has subsequently made a life and family with her. He gets into how the two were able to connect, how she truly sees him and his obsession with the mandolin and how listening to Bill Monroe instrumentals and old fiddle tunes really sharpened his playing. Andrew is a very smart and articulate person who makes important music. I'm excited to hear more from Watchhouse and where they grow. Enjoy Andrew! And yes, an Emily interview is in our future.

Episode 161: Bluegrass has an instrumental tradition going back to its Bill Monroe origins and its old-time forebears. Over time, the playing and composing became more refined and exploratory. This show features three young masters of contemporary acoustic music who've released all-instrumental albums in recent months. I speak with Wes Corbett, banjo player currently with the Sam Bush Band, Jeff Picker, bass player for Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder, and Andrew Marlin, half of the married duo Mandolin Orange. They talk about their new recordings and about the path that led them to write and record without words.

Andy Thorn has been the banjo player for the Polyethnic Cajun Slamgrass Jam Band, Leftover Salmon, for over 10 years. However, he has been preparing nearly his entire life, as he has both loved and dedicated himself to music since he was very young. His positive attitude, eclectic musical background, and vast banjo knowledge has allowed Andy to play in bands with current members of Greensky Bluegrass, Mandolin Orange, The Infamous Stringdusters, Che Apalache and the Jon Stickley Trio, to name a few. Recently Andy put out an EP with his former LOS pianist/keyboardist Erik Deutsch. Deutsch & Thorn's "Tangled Sea," successfully marries the banjo and the piano, and highlights Andy Thorns ability to play banjo in ever changing settings and styles. The album is available at andythornmusic.com, along with other merch, and updates on his music and live performances, so please check it out. Also, please join me as we take a deep dive into Andy's early years, and his serendipitous path to ending up in a band, which he was also a huge fan of growing up.

We've teamed up with Come Hear NC on a podcast series that explores North Carolina music one song at a time. This time, writer Allison Hussey tells us about a rare recording of the gospel standard 'Fifty Miles of Elbow Room' recorded by Emily Frantz and Andrew Marlin of Mandolin Orange with Josh Moore. It's a song that is often associated with The Carter Family, and Hussey says this version exemplifies a blend of the modern folk sound with North Carolina's traditional roots. This song can be found on a compilation called 'Hymns From The Gathering Church,' which is available on Bandcamp . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPQ3fCaGDkk

Tides of A Teardrop is Mandolin Orange's latest release, and we only recently had the opportunity to sit down with them. Their last record, 2016's Blindfaller garnered wild acclaim, and I can tell you that Tides of a Teardrop should eclipse that. It's a deeply personal record, written primarily by Andrew Marlin, with some input from Emily Frantz. Together, the duo make absolutely incredible roots music, beyond the bluegrass label they've been tagged with. This interview is an intimate one with Andrew Marlin. A very intimate behind the scenes conversation with Andrew Marlin. His comments regarding Jeff Austin were so poignant and beautiful too. You can catch Mandolin Orange at several festivals and solo dates throughout the summer. For those details visit mandolinorgange.com.

For nearly ten years, Mandolin Orange, the North Carolina folk duo comprising of Andrew Marlin and Emily Franz, have made their quietly powerful, deeply-entwined harmonies sing out from stages from Red Rocks to Newport Folk Fest. Zach talks with Emily and Andrew about how discussing Andrew's southern family history and politics can be like fighting wildfires around the dinner table - and how Emily's morning running routine has made her more in tune with each new city she arrives in on tour. Please stick around to end of the show where Andrew and Emily play an exclusive performance of “Wrecking Ball”.
Episode 6 - Interview with Andrew Marlin, Cool trucks, drugs, and your mom by Stevo and Goody's Hunting/Comedy Podcast
Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz of Mandolin Orange play tracks from Such Jubilee and talk about the themes in the new album and supporting other musicians. "Ep252 Mandolin Orange dodge their wrecking ball" originated from Americana Music Show.
Emily Frantz and Andrew Marlin from Mandolin Orange did not play the mandolin when they visited Beehive Studios in Saranac Lake, New York, to record an interview and a few video performances. Instead, the pair who met at a bluegrass jam turned to acoustic and electric guitar " demonstrating how their sound is evolving from its old-time and mountain music roots. 'Such Jubilee,' their latest CD, is "home" themed thanks, in part, to the road weariness they found while touring. Mandolin Orange's songs come from an emotional place and use the cover of Emily and Andrew's rich harmonies to move stealthily and grab listeners' attention.
MANDOLIN ORANGE is Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz, a duo that makes hushed, intricate, timeless music from the North Carolina Triangle region, drawing on deep American musical traditions to tell moving 21st century stories.

They are make their Yep Roc debut with �This Side of Jordan'. JESSE DEE is a singing, songwriting, guitar-playing soul man-a modern day trailblazer inspired by the old school.
