My two favorite things I hear from members at our annual conference are: 1) “I went to school at Berklee, but I've learned more in a single weekend at the Road Rally than I learned in four years of college,” and 2) “I was certain that I was going to be let down after all your hype about the Rally, but it's actually way better than you said it would be.” I hear those same things every single year. It makes me scratch my head and wonder why every single TAXI member doesn't come. Those of you who were there know exactly what I mean. The vibe, the camaraderie, the access to industry people you just won't find anywhere else, the networking, and the real-world education are apparently somewhat indescribable. How do I know? Because I can't seem to find the words to convince all of our members to come. Yet, we have members who came from Finland, Germany, France, New Zealand, Australia, the U.K., Argentina, Israel, Japan, and other faraway destinations that are a full day's worth of travel away, and at least $1,500 for the plane ticket, and they were thrilled they made the effort. On the other hand, we have members who live in Los Angeles and could drive to the Rally in 30 minutes or less, and they didn't come. I just don't get it! Today's TAXI TV episode is going to be dedicated to the people who came and loved the Rally. We're going to see photos, we're going to watch some videos, and we're going to hear from the members who were there.

V soboto, 22. novembra, bo v Sloveniji nastopil eden največjih sodobnih kitaristov, Al Di Meola.  Di Meola je svojo glasbeno kariero začel v kultni zasedbi Return to Forever s Chickom Coreo, Stanleyjem Clarkom in Lennyjem Whitom. Pridružil se ji je pri rosnih devetnajstih in z njo igral med letoma 1974 in 1976. Pozneje so sodelovali še v letih 1983 in 2008, vmes pa je pisal zgodovino še s slavnim akustičnim kitarskim triem skupaj z virtuozoma Johnom McLaughlinom in Pacom de Lucío ter triem Rite of Strings, v katerem sta igrala še basist Stanley Clark in violinist Jean-Luc Ponty. Bogata kariera mu je prinesla priznanja kritikov, štiri zlate in dva platinasta albuma ter več kot šest milijonov prodanih plošč, številne nominacije in nagrade grammy, med drugim pa tudi častni doktorat univerze Berklee in nagrado BBC za življenjsko delo. Revija Guitar Player Magazine ga je uvrstila v svojo prestižno Galerijo velikih. Al Di Meola v Cankarjevem domu nastopa s svojim akustičnim triem.

In this episode, I'm joined by John Mailander, a fearless and lyrical fiddler/violinist whose work bridges bluegrass, jazz, ambient improvisation, and songcraft. We trace his path from San Diego to Berklee (where he studied American Roots with mentor Darol Anger) to Nashville, where he found a close-knit community that's as experimental as it is supportive. John discusses the city's “weirdo music” scene, ambient nights, free improvisation, and oddball collaborations, and how that energy coexists alongside the touring calendar. We dig into his life-changing chair with Bruce Hornsby: the no-setlist ethos, learning the “top 80” deep-cut originals, living on the edge together, and the night Bruce rearranged the stage so John could stand next to John Scofield, then kept tossing them intertwined solos all evening. John shares recent runs with Sam Grisman (with hero Peter Rowan onboard), producing and recording more from Nashville, and the origin of his own band Forecast, a genre-porous collective inspired by Bill Frisell, Brian Blade Fellowship, Pat Metheny/Brad Mehldau, and Joni Mitchell. We talk through the new record Let the World In: how residency nights at Dee's in Madison shaped the tunes, why the drums sound so alive, and why he welcomes rotating lineups to hear the same music through new lenses. Teaching and mentorship thread through the conversation: passing on what was given to him (formally and backstage between songs), honoring influences like Matt Mundy (ARU/Bruce Hampton), and why the point isn't “pushing boundaries” as a goal but playing honestly enough that the music pushes itself. It's a generous, grounded conversation about trust, curiosity, and letting the music lead.To learn more about John, visit his website.

It's our Friday media analysis segment “Press Play” with NBC 10 Boston's media maven Sue O'Connell and GBH's Adam Reilly, on the Pentagon's new MAGA press crew and a new report showing teens think the media is biased and boring. As the Trump administration continues its assault on free thought and open inquiry, how are local libraries weathering the storm? We ask Boston Public Library's David Leonard and Watertown Free Public Library's Kim Long.Then it's Live Music Friday with veteran R&B vocalist, Berklee's Gabrielle Goodman, ahead of a show at Long Live Roxbury.Plus, our Trump Tracker segment, with just a few of the horrors you may have overlooked this week, coming out of the flood-the-zone Oval Office.And we check in with Boston Globe business columnist Shirley Leung on the impact of sports betting on kids' sports, the allure of progressive Millennial mayors, and how anyone could think Elon Musk deserves a trillion dollar salary. 

The paramount concern articulated in this discourse pertains to the significance of networking within the realm of music education and professional advancement. I, alongside my esteemed colleagues, delve into the merits of attending institutions such as Berklee, elucidating how these establishments serve not merely as educational platforms but as fertile grounds for forging invaluable connections with industry professionals. Our conversation further navigates the dichotomy between formal education and self-directed practice, challenging the notion that success in music is solely predicated on traditional academic pathways. We acknowledge the myriad of successful artists who have transcended conventional educational routes, yet we underscore the multifaceted advantages that arise from collaborative engagements and shared experiences fostered in academic settings. Ultimately, the episode serves as a contemplative exploration of the intricate balance between individual artistry and the collaborative spirit essential for thriving in the contemporary music landscape.The conversation delves into the significance of obtaining a formal music education, particularly at prestigious institutions such as Berklee. I articulate the duality of this experience, emphasizing that while a traditional education provides invaluable networking opportunities, it is also possible to achieve success through self-directed study and practice. The guests elucidate their personal journeys, highlighting the evolution of music education in the digital age, where resources abound online, contrasting with the more financially prohibitive methods of the past. They underscore the importance of cultivating relationships within the industry, which can yield substantial benefits in one's career trajectory. Networking emerges as a pivotal theme, as they recount how connections made during their time at school continue to influence their professional lives, facilitating collaborations and opportunities that may not have been accessible otherwise.Takeaways: The significance of attending a prestigious institution like Berklee lies in the invaluable networking opportunities provided, which can greatly enhance one's career in music. While self-teaching can be effective for some musicians, formal education can offer structured learning and connections that may be beneficial in the long run. The collaborative nature of music production necessitates effective communication and team dynamics, as it allows for a more natural and cohesive creative process. Working with esteemed artists such as Michael Jackson and James Brown imparts essential lessons about simplicity and accessibility in music, which can resonate with wider audiences.

My guest this week is Darol Anger, who joins me to discuss his new album 'Diary of a Fiddler 2 - The Empty Nest'.We chat about the original 'Diary of a Fiddler', released in 1999, and how the second volume celebrates and deepened Darol's connection to the fiddle community, in particular the players he's taught, mentored and collaborated with since the first record came out.Darol explains why this project felt like a purposeful completion of a long process, which began with that first record. We also talk about how the landscape of fiddling has been transformed by fiddle camps and music schools like Berklee, where Darol taught and first met several of the players on this record.We also discuss the development of rhythmic accompaniment on the fiddle, which was still relatively new in the 1990s, how the pandemic inspired a joyful collaborative project that kicked this new record off, how Darol's move to Nashville connected him to a wider community of fiddlers and why 'Diary of a Fiddler 2' feels like the clearest expression of any musical legacy he might leave.Any opportunity to talk to Darol is a treat and this one was no exception. I always come away from a conversation with Darol feeling like I've learned something and with a smile on my face. I hope you enjoy it too.You can buy 'Diary of a Fiddler 2' (and Darol's other releases) via his Bandcamp pageDarol also has a great fiddle course on ArtistWorksMatt Support the show===Thanks to Bryan Sutton for his wonderful theme tune to Bluegrass Jam Along (and to Justin Moses for playing the fiddle!)

En este episodio nos encontramos con Ricardo del Búfalo, un colega muy cercano desde nuestros inicios en la comedia. Desde el primer minuto compartimos la reflexión sobre el miedo escénico: ese cosquilleo que nunca se va y que, según descubrimos juntos, se vuelve incluso necesario para mantener la adrenalina viva antes de subirnos al escenario. Nos reconocemos en esa sensación, porque no importa cuántos años pasen, el temor de olvidar un chiste o de no provocar risa siempre está ahí.A lo largo de la charla repasamos la trayectoria de Ricardo, desde sus inicios en Barquisimeto hasta su llegada a Madrid. Recordamos cómo, antes de ser comediante, se proyectaba como músico y soñaba con estudiar en Berklee. Sin embargo, se dio cuenta de que lo que realmente lo movía no era pasar ocho horas tocando la guitarra, sino comunicar ideas, analizar la realidad venezolana y transformarla en humor. Boston le dejó, además, una pasión inesperada: la fotografía de calle, ese gusto por observar la ciudad y atrapar momentos.En la conversación aparecen las influencias fundamentales: Andrés López y Laureano Márquez. Con Laureano se produjo un encuentro clave, porque fue él quien le confesó que incluso después de décadas sigue sintiendo miedo al subir al escenario. Esa honestidad se convirtió en un abrazo simbólico que lo acompañó en sus primeros pasos. Después vino el debut en Caracas, un show de quince minutos que salió fatal, pero que él celebró como una victoria porque logró recordar todo lo que había escrito. Entre risas entendimos que muchas veces el primer triunfo está en simplemente atreverse.Uno de los momentos más intensos fue recordar la anécdota del “sopapo” en Miss Universo. Ricardo confesó cómo un chiste mal planteado se convirtió en ola de odio y cómo de esa experiencia aprendió que no se puede hacer humor con el cuerpo de otra persona. La respuesta fue convertir la crisis en una canción humorística, un “homenaje” que transformó el hate en creatividad. Entre todos coincidimos en que esa resiliencia, esa capacidad de dar vuelta a lo negativo, es lo que sostiene a los artistas.Finalmente hablamos de migración. Ricardo lleva pocos meses en Madrid y todavía vive el duelo de dejar Venezuela. Lo más duro, nos dice, es la nostalgia; lo más liberador, caminar de noche sin miedo. Descubrimos con él que migrar sin voluntad es una especie de destierro emocional, pero también que en esa experiencia se abren nuevas búsquedas y nuevos públicos. El humor, concluimos, es nuestra manera de mirar y pensar la vida, y gracias a él seguimos construyendo puentes, dentro y fuera de nuestros países.

It's the return of Molly Tuttle! (The first time I interviewed Tuttle was in 2021, when I interviewed her and Katie Pruitt.)Tuttle won the GRAMMY for Best Bluegrass Album in both 2023 and 2024. And you don't become great without rigorous discipline.

On this episode, we're joined by Berklee Welsh and Christina Skonberg from Simple Mills — the number one cracker, cookie, and baking mix brand in the natural channel today.   We unpack how Simple Mills is focused on contribution over attribution, working with more than 4,000 farmers on 70,000 acres to build a regenerative supply that doesn't necessarily translate into product-specific claims.   We talk about product innovation, how underutilized crops like buckwheat and red beans are making their way into cookies and crackers, and why designing for soil health starts with good product design.   You'll hear how their ingredient-specific regen programs started with a few sunflower growers in the Midwest and have now expanded to almonds, cocoa, and coconut sugar — and how those programs are grounded in listening to farmers, not prescribing to them.   Berklee and Christina unpack how Simple Mills' regenerative programs drive supply resilience, employee morale, product differentiation, and even ingredient quality — making the case for why Simple Mills invests in this work, even without on-pack claims.   This one is packed with quality insights from two top-notch sustainability pros.   Episode Highlights:  

Originally from northern Minnesota, Joe K. Walsh grew up in Duluth and became enthralled with the mandolin (his primary focus, currently) after hearing the first David Grisman Quintet record. His dad got the young Joe his own mando. He ended up getting very serious about the instrument and found himself studying at Berklee College of Music in Boston (where he is now on faculty in the string department). Joe, in fact, was THE FIRST mandolin student at Berklee in a town that is now flooded with amazing mandolin players. His already strong sense of community and collaboration led him to becoming a main player in the Boston scene with his string band Joy Kills Sorrow and the Gibson Brothers. He now resides in Portland, Maine and plays solo as well as with Mr. Sun, a group led by fiddler Darol Anger.In our conversation, we talk about taking over at Berklee after the death of professor John McGann, a beloved Boston trad player who recorded with David Grisman, Mark O'Connor, Tim O'Brien, and the Boston Pops, among others. Joe addresses the question of whether bringing folk music into a college setting is "academizing" it or perhaps “folking” music academia. Also he gets into hot button issues like improv, simplicity, and restraint. And, of course, he finally reveals his true feelings about the "other" Joe Walsh. Joe's new instrumental album, 'Trust and Love,' is a peaceful listen in these wild times. I'm happy to know Joe and have already benefited from his friendship! He and his wife gave my family a TON of baby hand-me-downs that have proved SO useful. Everyone has a friend in Joe.

In this episode, I talk with the talented trumpeter, composer, and arranger Milena Casado. Born and raised in Spain, she's a graduate of the Berklee College of Music, where she honed her skills working with amazing teachers. She shares about growing up in a small village town, looking different from other members of that community; about meeting her father for the first time; about getting in touch with her Dominican roots; and about her acceptance to Berklee. We also discuss the major influence of her mentor, drummer extraordinaire Terri Lyne Carrington, and dive into her album Reflection of Another Self, a stunning debut that's a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and resilience. https://www.milenacasado.com
