Podcasts about Bandleader

This week on Cover Band Confidential, Adam and Dan do a quick Memorial Day catch-up and break down the first live band karaoke show under Adam's new "ATL LBK" brand. The gig had a lot going for it: a massive LED wall, custom motion backgrounds, ProPresenter handling the song list and visuals, AbleSet running lyrics, and Bandleader managing singer signups, payments, and queue management. Shockingly, a lot of the complicated stuff actually worked. But because this is live music, there were still some growing pains.We also get into escape room recommendations, a BBC show recommendation, new merch plans, the last Members Only gig with Nathan for a while, and why anything worth doing is apparently worth overdoing. If you're a working musician, bandleader, or someone thinking about adding live band karaoke to your gig options, this episode is a useful look at what worked, what needs dialing in, and why the signup system and lyric system are probably the things you want working before anything else.Want to send us your gig red flags for a future episode? Email: coverbandconfidential@gmail.comJoin the Cover Band Confidential community, Patreon, Slack, and more: https://www.coverbandconfidential.com/links#CoverBandConfidential #LiveBandKaraoke #CoverBand #WorkingMusician #GiggingMusician #BandLeader #LiveMusic #ATLmusic #AtlantaBands #ProPresenter #AbleSet #BandGear #MusicBusinesslive band karaoke, live karaoke band, cover band podcast, Cover Band Confidential, working musician podcast, gigging musician tips, bandleader advice, live music business, how to run live band karaoke, ATL LBK, Atlanta live band karaoke, karaoke with live band, ProPresenter live music, AbleSet lyrics, band signup system, live band set up, cover band tips, bar band gigs, private event band, live sound for bands, band routing problems, Behringer WING live sound, QR code song signup, band karaoke setup, audience participation gig, cover band business, musician podcast, live music podcast, gig recap, band tech setup, live vocal mixing, in ear monitors, band management, music business podcast

Genial, unangepasst, visionär: Vor hundert Jahren ist Miles Davis zur Welt gekommen, und noch heute gilt er als Prototyp des Jazzmusikers. Viele seiner Alben sind Meilensteine, einige seiner Bands gelten bis heute als unübertroffen. Was fasziniert die junge Generation an diesem Trompeter und Komponisten? Warum wurden so viele der Sidemen von Miles später selber Bandleader? Und kann man heute überhaupt noch ein Bandleader sein wie Miles Davis es war? Die Trompeterin Sonja Ott und der Schlagzeuger Philipp Leibundgut sind nicht nur mitgeprägt vom Kosmos Miles, sie spielen auch in vielen kleinen und grossen und zum Teil gemeinsamen Bands und kennen die Leiden und Freuden des Musikerlebens. Für die Miles Davis Geburtstags-Jazz Collection bringen sie ihre Miles-Lieblingsmusik mit, diskutieren die Bedingungen von Sidemen und -women damals und heute und plaudern aus dem Nähkästchen ihrer Banderfahrungen – als Gäste von Jodok Hess. Die gespielten Titel: Interpret:in: Titel (Album / Label): - Miles Davis & Gil Evans: My Ship (Miles Davis + 19: Miles Ahead / CBS) - Miles Davis: So What (Kind of Blue / CBS) - Miles Davis: Seven Steps to Heaven - Seven Steps to Heaven (Take 3) (Miles Davis: Seven Steps. The Complete Columbia Recordings 1963-1964 / Columbia) - Miles Davis: My Funny Valentine (The Complete Concert 1964. My Funny Valentine + Four & More / Columbia) - Miles Davis: Pharao's Dance (Bitches Brew / CBS) - Miles Davis: Tutu (Tutu / Warner Bros)

Miles Davis gilt immer noch als eine der prägendsten Figuren der Musikgeschichte. Er war Jazz-Trompeter, Bandleader, Erfinder, Provokateur – und jemand, der den Jazz immer wieder neu gedacht hat. Am 26. Mai 1926 ist Miles Davis in der kleinen Stadt Alton im Bundesstaat Illinois geboren und hat sein Leben lang die Jazzwelt aufgemischt. Zu seinem 100. Geburtstag blicken wir zurück auf diesen prägenden Musiker, der auf allen Bühnen der Welt gespielt hat. Ob in Montreux, Helsinki, Belgrad oder mit Pop-Covers in Melbourne.

Er hat den Jazz mehrmals neu erfunden im Laufe seines Lebens: Der Trompeter und Bandleader kam vom Bebop zum Hardbop, erfand den Cool Jazz mit, fusionierte den Jazz mit anderen Musikrichtungen wie Rock und Pop. Er würde Musik atmen, hat er mal gesagt. Doch Miles Davis wirkte nicht nur über seine Musik, sondern auch über seinen Look, sein Auftreten, wie er sich auf der Bühne und in den Medien inszenierte. Gleichzeitig konnte er auch gnadenlos und brutal sein, andere demütigen. Er hat sich geprügelt, auch seine Frauen und daraus kein Geheimnis gemacht. Wie also umgehen mit Miles Davis und seinem Erbe? Welche wichtigen Akzente hat er hinterlassen in der Musikgeschichte und wie wirken sie bis heute? Eva Röder diskutiert mit Lukas Akintaya – Schlagzeuger, Komponist, Producer; Stefan Hentz – Journalist und Autor; Julia Neupert – SWR-Jazzredaktion

The renowned clarinetist and bandleader bridged the gap between campus amateurism and professional jazz in a career that spanned half a century.

Den ersten Grammy als Bandleader, für dieses Album? Den hat Sullivan Fortner nicht kommen sehen. Das Album entstand spontan, mit einer ad hoc Band. Sullivan Fortner, dieser brillante Pianist, scheint sich nicht allzu viel aus Preisen zu machen. Das sei das schöne an seiner Kunst, sagt er: Jeder Tag sei ein neues weisses Blatt. Der Grammy für das «Best Jazz Instrumental» Album dürfte ihn dennoch gefreut haben, auch wenn er bereits in der Vergangenheit liegt – und er sich selbst sowieso nicht als Jazzmusiker versteht. Es geht ihm um Musik, nicht um Genres. Und darum, Mensch zu sein. 00:20 – Talk Sullivan Fortner erzählt, wo er war, als er von seinem Grammy erfahren hat. Warum er sich selber nicht Jazzpianist nennt. Und er verrät, ob er mit der Sängerin Cécile McLorin Salvant wirklich zusammen ist. 23:38 – Wochenrückblick (Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme: Freitag, 20.03., 12 Uhr) Vom Grammy für Sullivan Fortner zum Oscar für Ludwig Göranssons Filmmusik zum Film «Sinners». Der schwedische Komponist ist ein Wahlamerikaner, der dank der Blues-Begeisterung seines Vaters zur Gitarre kam und dank der Gitarre schliesslich zur Zusammenarbeit mit dem Regisseur von «Sinners», Ryan Coder. 40:45 – Konzert-Tipp Eine Uraufführung der Schweizer Komponistin Cécile Marti in Basel verspricht ein Klangabenteuer. 45:15 – Musikfrage Mit der Musikwissenschaftlerin Cristina Urchueguía: Warum heisst der Ton H ausserhalb des deutschen Sprachraums überall B? 49:30 – Neu in meiner Playlist «In My Dreams», das neue Album von Bill Frisell – ein Gitarrist, der immer wieder zu überraschen vermag.

Diese Folgen widmen einem großartigen Mitglied der Harald-Schmidt-Show-Familie. Er ist Kakerlaken-Versteher, Percussionist (von Jazz bis Die Ärzte-Songs hat er alles drauf), Gag-Schreiber, Bandleader der Pumpernickels, Heuschreckenkoch und Meistergärtner. Alle diese Fähigkeiten hat er in der Harald Schmidt Show jahrelang gezeigt. Die Rede ist von Markus Paßlick, Münsterländer mit dem Lebensmotto: „Nicht lang schnacken, Kopp in Nacken“. Aber auch über den größten Tiefpunkt in der Karriere von Paßlick müssen wir reden – wir er dereinst, im November 2001, kläglich bei Wer wird Millionär versagte. Andrack hat ein brisantes Exklusiv-Interview mit Paßlick in einer Hotel-Suite geführt. Das bekommt ihr in dieser ASS-Folge auf die Ohren.

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.

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.

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)

As the founder and leader of The 8-bit Big Band, a 35-piece jazz-pops orchestra, he had transformed classic video game soundtracks into virtuosic symphonic showstoppers. Under his direction, the ensemble has reimagined themes from Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Sonic the Hedgehog, with flair—earning critical acclaim, viral attention, and a devoted global audience.
