Considered one of the architects of rock and roll, the guitarist and bandleader is most notable for his solo on Bill Haley and the Comets' landmark recording of "Rock Around the Clock".

Cabell Calloway III (December 25, 1907 – November 18, 1994) was an American jazz singer, songwriter and bandleader. He was a regular performer at the Cotton Club in Harlem, where he became a popular vocalist of the swing era. His niche of mixing jazz and vaudeville won him acclaim during a career that spanned over 65 years.[2]Calloway was a master of energetic scat singing and led one of the most popular dance bands in the United States from the early 1930s to the late 1940s. His band included trumpeters Dizzy Gillespie, Jonah Jones, and Adolphus "Doc" Cheatham, saxophonists Ben Webster and Leon "Chu" Berry, guitarist Danny Barker, bassist Milt Hinton, and drummer Cozy Cole.[3]Calloway had several hit records in the 1930s and 1940s, becoming the first African-American musician to sell one million copies of a record. He became known as the "Hi-de-ho" man of jazz for his most famous song, "Minnie the Moocher", originally recorded in 1931. He reached the Billboard charts in five consecutive decades (1930s–1970s).[4] Calloway also made several stage, film, and television appearances. He had roles in Stormy Weather (1943), Porgy and Bess (1953), The Cincinnati Kid (1965), and Hello Dolly! (1967). In the 1980s, Calloway enjoyed a marked career resurgence following his appearance in the musical comedy film The Blues Brothers (1980).Calloway was the first African-American to have a nationally syndicated radio program.[5] In 1993, Calloway received the National Medal of Arts from the United States Congress.[6] He posthumously received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008. His song "Minnie the Moocher" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999, and added to the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry in 2019.[7] In 2022, the National Film Registry selected his home films for preservation as "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant films".[8] He was inducted into the Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame and the International Jazz Hall of Fame.PICTURE: By William P.

Explore the music of the Indianapolis saxophonist, bandleader, and music educator Larry Leggett, known professionally as Larry Liggett. We'll share rare recordings from Liggett, including his work for the legendary Chicago label Chess Records.  Larry Liggett was born in Brazil, Indiana in 1921. He began playing music at an early age. At 10-years-old, he became the youngest member of the Brazil High School Marching Band. He continued to distinguish himself in college, becoming the first Black musician in the symphonic band and orchestra, at Indiana State University.  Liggett moved to Indianapolis during the 1940s and began teaching at Crispus Attucks High School in 1948. He continued working in the Indianapolis Public School system for the next 40 years. During that time, Liggett was performing jazz music at nightclubs across Indianapolis. Liggett also enjoyed success as a recording artist. During the 1950s, his recordings for Chess received national airplay.  In 2004 his contributions to Indiana music were acknowledged by the Indianapolis Jazz Foundation, who inducted Liggett into the Indianapolis Jazz Hall of Fame.

Accidental bandleader and beloved Canadian Tony Dekker joins us to talk about Great Lake Swimmers' new album, 'Caught Light.' Tony is up to old tricks again, like recording in a remote and weird place (in a century-old farmhouse in the middle of the woods) and working with his merry band of rotating musician friends, including producer Darcy Yates (Bahamas). The album was recorded in three days, the shortest amount of time he's ever spent on a record. In that very fast process, he had to learn to let go of control. In our Basic Folk conversation, he shares what he's learned about the beauty of letting go. We also get into how Tony feels most capable of confronting environmental and political themes in his songwriting and daily practice.In recent years, Dekker has moved his family from Toronto, the big city, back to the Niagara area in Ontario where he grew up, to establish a small town community and life. We revisit his early years in Wainfleet, ON, discussing the ins and outs of his family's farm, his love of country radio, and talent for picking any instrument. He learned the joy of playing music at a young age. The reward of music was enough, and that notion has translated into how Great Lake Swimmers operates and what kind of bandleader he is. As stated before, the fact that he is the group's bandleader is an accident, since he only wanted to organize the band and act as a background member. Finding himself more and more on the frontline, he did some serious work learning how to be a good leader and how to operate a band that's made up of good friends. It's clear that Tony's figured out how to be a humble leader and friend as his collaborators return to his orbit time and time again.Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

In this episode,, Dan and I get a little uncomfortable—in a good way. We break down 10 leadership mistakes band leaders are making without even realizing it, and yeah… we've both been guilty of more than a few of them.We talk about why avoiding hard conversations doesn't “keep the peace,” how assuming everyone in your band wants the same thing is a recipe for resentment, and why over-explaining decisions can quietly undermine your leadership. We also dig into the trap of doing everything yourself, protecting the wrong people, and forgetting that—like it or not—a band is also a product, not just a group of friends hanging out.This isn't theory. It's all stuff we've lived through: blown gigs, awkward conversations we should've had sooner, and lessons learned the hard way. If you're running a band (or thinking about it), this episode is part reality check, part therapy session, and part “ouch… I needed that.”MaestroDMX (10% off discount link): https://maestrodmx.com/discount/DISCOUNT4CBC?redirect=%2Fproducts%2FmaestrodmxBlank Contracts & Riders: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/performance-contractsBacking Track Resources: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/store/backing-track-resourcesThank you so much for tuning in!  If you want to help be sure to like, subscribe and share with your friends!  Linktree: linktr.ee/adampatrickjohnson                linktr.ee/coverbandconfidentialFollow us on Instagram!@coverbandconfidential@adampatrickjohnson@danraymusicianIf you have any questions please email at:Coverbandconfidential@gmail.comConsider supporting us on Patreon! www.patreon.com/coverbandconfidentialOr buy us a cup of coffee!paypal.me/cbconfidentialAnd for more info check out www.coverbandconfidential.comGear Used in this Video (Affiliate):Sony ZV-E10 Mirrorless Camera: https://amzn.to/3DBqtOyElgato Prompter: https://amzn.to/3X3IAq8 Shure SM7B: https://amzn.to/4dDCJx0 Elgato Stream Deck XL: https://amzn.to/3gKjhqiMagic Arm Camera Friction Mount: https://amzn.to/3SK5yNk

Jazz musician Christopher Brown talks about his approach to music and education. He and his band will give a presentation/performance "Beyond the Buzz: Finding the Signal in a Noisy World" on January 29, 2026. https://blogs.uoregon.edu/oregonhumanitiescenter/multimedia/news/christopher-brown-grabs-our-attention-with-jazz/

Regular listeners to MinistryWatch know that one of the things we like to do here is celebrate what I sometimes call the “non-celebrity” Christian leader. We've seen so many of the toxic effects of celebrity leadership that we sometimes forget that it's a choice, and that it is possible to pursue our calling without pursuing celebrity. A group of people I admire for their approach to their art is a group of artists and others in Nashville associated with The Rabbit Room. These people include Andrew Peterson, who I have had on this podcast and my predecessor podcast at WORLD Magazine three or four times. But he has many fellow travelers in the Nashville music scene, including Andrew Osenga, who was a recent guest on the program, but also Randall Goodgame, Douglas McKelvey, Sandra McCracken, Charlie Peacock, Steve Taylor, John Mays – all of whom have been guests on this program. But man guy I've been wanting to talk with for years is…finally…my guest today. That man is Ben Shive. If you have even a passing knowledge of the Christian music scene, you probably know who Ben is. He has been involved in almost all of Andrew Peterson's music for the past 25 years, co-writing his hit “Is He Worthy?”  He was also a co-writer on Keith & Kristyn Getty's “Christ Is All in All.” He has produced music for Peterson and the Gettys, for JJ Heller, Dave Barnes, and MercyMe, and he won a Dove Award for his work with Brandon Heath. You can hear his playing and arrangements on the songs of Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Steven Curtis Chapman, and Chris Tomlin. I wanted to talk with Ben about his work, of course, but also what it was like to be a part of a creative community, and what it takes to hold that community together for decades. We had our conversation via zoom. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.

Das Schlagzeug sorgt im Jazz für den Puls, für den Drive – es ist der Herzschlag der Musik. Aber immer mehr Drummer sind nicht nur Begleiter, die gelegentlich ein kurzes Solo beisteuern, sondern auch Bandleader und Komponisten. Diese Entwicklung der letzten Jahre lässt sich ebenfalls beim jungen Drummer Jonas Sorgenfrei aus Nürnberg beobachten. Er ist Bandleader, Komponist und sensibler Schlagzeuger. Auf seinem fünften Album „Cracks In The Silence“ präsentiert er eine enorme musikalische Vielfalt und ganz unterschiedliche Stimmungen – intime, lyrische Titel stehen neben kraftvollen Ensemblestücken, und immer stärker wird das Klangbild von einer elektronischen Patina überzogen. „Die ‚Risse in der Stille' sind eine schöne Metapher für die reifen, aber doch überraschenden Performances auf diesem Album“ – meint unser Jazzkritiker Niklas Wandt.

Back on this day in 1944 legendary band leader Glenn Miller disappeared. KTAR Timeline is  brought to you by Beatitudes Campus. 

The renowned bandleader was famous for his comedic, satirical spoofs of popular songs and classical music, punctuated with absurd sound effects, with his group, Spike Jones and His City Slickers.

Seit er denken kann, macht er Musik vor Publikum: Michael Patrick Kelly, früher Kinderstar und Bandleader der „Kelly Family“, ist schon lange als Solokünstler höchst erfolgreich. Am dritten Adventsonntag ist er zu Gast in Ö3-„Frühstück bei mir“ auf Ö3. Mit seinem neuen Album "Traces" erreichte er jetzt erstmals Platz 1 der deutschen Album-Charts, trotzdem sagt er: "Musik ist für mich sehr erfüllend - aber was mich am meisten erfüllt, sind Beziehungen. Meine Frau ist für mich das größte Geschenk - und meine Beziehung zu Gott." Der 48jährige gebürtige Ire, der auf seinem neuem Album einen Song seinem Vater gewidmet hat, spricht über Versöhnung mit ihm durch eine Familienaufstellung. Und er wäre bei einem Comeback der Kelly Family dabei - allerdings nur für eine beschränkte Zahl an Auftritten. "Vielleicht eine Tour einen Sommer lang." Am 31.7. 2026 spielt er sein Österreich-Konzert in der Metastadt in Wien. (Dieser Beitrag begleitet das Ö3-"Frühstück bei mir" vom 14.12.2025)

Als Begleitmusiker hat der Pianist Kenny Barron über viele Jahrzehnte den Jazz geprägt. Von seinem unverwechselbaren, einfühlsamen Spiel ließen sich Musiker wie Roy Haynes, Lee Morgan oder Dizzy Gillespie inspirieren. Doch nicht nur als Begleiter, sondern auch als Solist und Bandleader hat sich der heute 82-jährige US-amerikanische Jazz-Pianist und Komponist einen Namen gemacht. Für sein jüngstes Album „Songbook“ hat er prominente Sängerinnen und Sänger gebeten, Stücke für ihn und sein Trio zu interpretieren. Dieser Bitte ist auch Janice Jarrett nachgekommen, die seit über vierzig Jahren für Barrons Stücke Texte schreibt – wovon er zunächst gar nichts wusste. Herausgekommen ist ein sehr persönliches Album, über dessen Hintergründe Niklas Wandt mit Kenny Barron gesprochen hat.

Pepe Lienhard erreichte 1977 mit seinem Sextett Platz sechs beim Eurovision Song Contest. Doch die Bedingungen waren alles andere als ideal. Im Gespräch blickt der Bandleader zurück und nach vorne – auf einen ESC zwischen Pop, Politik und Pathos. Der Schweizer Bandleader und Saxophonist Pepe Lienhard liess sich vom Erfolg der schwedischen Popgruppe ABBA beim Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) inspirieren. ABBA war einer der Gründe, weshalb er selbst am ESC teilnehmen wollte. Die Band gewann den Wettbewerb 1974 mit dem Titel „Waterloo“. Drei Jahre später trat Lienhard mit dem Song „Swiss Lady“ für die Schweiz an und belegte den sechsten Platz. Das Lied hielt sich wochenlang an der Spitze der Hitparaden. Dennoch war die ESC-Erfahrung für ihn Fluch und Segen zugleich. Pepe Lienhard ist zu Gast bei David Karasek.

Following the Eaton Fire, tens of thousands of people are suspended in a state of shock and grief, even as they have to make life-changing decisions about where to live now, and whether to rebuild. KQED's Rachael Myrow shares the story of one mother and daughter navigating this new normal. Plus we visit the Santa Cruz studio of Kishi Bashi. The musician and composer defies genre, and it's hard even for his fans to describe his work – yet they feel deeply connected to his music. For our series on California Composers, we sent reporter Lusen Mendel to one of his recent shows to see if they could figure it out. And we take a trip to the Central Coast to hear the band Loz Rayoz de Guadalupe. The group is part of a growing and thriving norteño music scene there. The band's frontman, Chencho Perez, is just 19 years old. Reporter Benjamin Purper says Perez is part of a new generation of norteño musicians embracing and evolving this traditional Mexican sound.
