On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with Ruthie Foster to talk about her new album, Just Say Yes, and the musical journey that gave her such a powerful connection to songs, audiences, and the spirit inside a performance.Ruthie takes me into the making of the record with co-writer and producer Tyler Bryant. We talk about the importance of a great rhythm section, how different drummers can reshape a singer's phrasing, and why Ruthie prefers to step aside and let musicians bring their own interpretations to her songs. She also introduces us to her self-created background vocal group, affectionately known as the “Cheap Inspirations.”We trace Ruthie's story from learning piano and guitar in small-town Texas to studying music in Waco and working as a session singer during her time with Atlantic Records in New York. She reflects on the education she received in studios, songwriter circles, church services, and nearly empty clubs—and how each setting taught her something different about craft, versatility, and connecting with a room.At the center of our conversation is the idea behind Just Say Yes. What began as a reminder to accept professional opportunities has grown into something more personal: saying yes to herself, her family, and what truly matters. We also discuss parenthood, the emotional life of a song, and why Ruthie is still waiting for these new songs to reveal everything they have to teach her.Key TakeawaysRuthie gives the musicians on her albums room to interpret each song and contribute their own musical personalities.Her background as a New York session singer taught her versatility, efficiency, and how to change the timbre of her voice for different projects.Studying music in Waco exposed her to arranging, publishing, copyright, big-band instrumentation, and the business behind a musical career.Growing up in the church taught Ruthie that music begins with feeling and with the ability to change the atmosphere in a room.Songs continue to evolve for her over time, sometimes revealing their full emotional meaning only after years of performance.Just Say Yes looks forward, while her previous album, Mileage, invited her to look back over her life.The album's title has grown from a professional reminder into a commitment to say yes to herself, her family, and the things that matter most.Music from the EpisodeDoubling Back - Ruthie FosterThank You - Ruthie FosterYes - Ruthie FosterHold On - Ruthie FosterAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast about music, creativity, and the people who devote their lives to making sound.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with singer, songwriter, harmonica player, and bandleader Christopher Wyze for a conversation about creativity, discipline, mentorship, and discovering an entirely new musical life later in adulthood.Christopher spent decades working as a professional writer and advertising executive before writing his first song in 2022. We talk about how those years of meeting deadlines, telling stories, and finding the clearest possible language prepared him for songwriting. He shares how producer and mentor Ralph Carter encouraged him to take his writing seriously, ultimately leading to the album Stuck in the Mud, recorded in Muscle Shoals with an exceptional group of musicians.We also explore the joy and vulnerability of entering the studio with world-class players, including members of the Hi Rhythm Section, and hearing a simple lyric or demo become a fully realized piece of music. Christopher talks about collaboration, learning to trust the room, and the responsibility he feels to keep writing and recording while the songs are arriving.A major part of our conversation centers on Naptown Blues, Christopher Wyze and the Tellers' tribute to Indianapolis blues musicians Leroy Carr and Scrapper Blackwell. We discuss their influence on artists such as Robert Johnson, the overlooked history of blues recording in Indiana, and why Christopher feels called to help preserve and share that legacy.Ultimately, this is a conversation about believing someone when they see something in you, finding purpose after a difficult professional chapter, and reaching a point in life where fear no longer gets to make the decisions.Key TakeawaysChristopher wrote his first song in 2022 after decades of professional writing in newspapers, magazines, books, and advertising.Producer and former Eddie Money collaborator Ralph Carter became a mentor who encouraged Christopher to write original music and helped shape his songs in the studio.His debut album, Stuck in the Mud, was recorded in Muscle Shoals with musicians including guitarist Eric Deaton.Christopher approaches songwriting much like advertising: identify the central idea, use as few words as possible, and allow music and imagery to carry part of the story.Playing with musicians such as the Hi Rhythm Section has taught him to trust the moment and elevate his own performance.Naptown Blues honors Indianapolis blues pioneers Leroy Carr and Scrapper Blackwell, whose music helped influence Robert Johnson and “Sweet Home Chicago.”Christopher believes his most important work now is writing and recording songs, even when that means performing less often.His return to music has given him a sense of joy, purpose, and fearlessness that he did not have earlier in life.Music from the EpisodeI'm Going Back to Tennessee - Christopher WyzeAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a long-form interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams featuring thoughtful conversations with musicians, songwriters, producers, and artists about creativity, craft, collaboration, and the experiences that shape their work.

18-time Grammy nominee and American musical legend Taj Mahal goes deep on his influences and his approach to the craft. PART ONEPaul and Scott kick off the new year with a discussion about the nominees for the upcoming Grammy Awards. And more! PART TWOOur in-depth conversation with Taj MahalABOUT TAJ MAHALSinger, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Taj Mahal has mastered the blues form and has further built upon it by incorporating world music influences and expanding the boundaries of the genre. Growing up in Massachusetts, he made his way to Southern California in the mid-1960s where he formed the Group Rising Sons with Ry Cooder, Jessie Lee Kincaid, and Kevin Kelley. They signed with Columbia Records but, upon disbanding, Taj joined forces with guitarist Jesse Ed Davis and remained on the label as a solo artist. After a dozen albums with Columbia, he moved to Warner Bros. Records in the mid-1970s. Following a period spent living in Hawaii and largely out of the limelight in the 1980s, he ultimately reemerged for a new era of commercial success. Taj has been nominated for 18 Grammy Awards, winning five, including Best Contemporary Blues Album in 1997, 2000, 2008, and 2018, and best Traditional Blues Album in 2022 and 2025. He has received the Lifetime Achievement Award from both the Americana Music Association and the Recording Academy. His most recent album, a duet project with Keb' Mo' called Room on the Porch, is nominated for the Best Traditional Blues Album Grammy at the upcoming Awards on February 1st.

Our annual time to acknowledge the ways this time of year can try our spirits. The blues is a balm for your soul. Rev. T. J. FitzGerald is preaching. Featuring special Blues Music. Breaking Open Series Based on the beloved hymn "People, Look East," this Advent series invites us into a season of waiting that is also a season of preparing, softening, and opening. We will notice what is breaking open in us and around us — moments when cracks let in light, when hearts stretch to hold both sorrow and hope, and when breaking open becomes a path to transformation. Our journey begins with an exploration of preparation that looks beyond the visible tasks of the season to the deeper work of readying our hearts and spirits for what lies ahead. We will plant seeds of possibility in seemingly barren ground, trusting in growth we cannot yet see. We will join in the joy and wonder of our community's Christmas pageant, welcoming the light that children so naturally carry. And we will create space for the tender truths of this season, acknowledging that sorrow and struggle are also part of our Advent journey, and that even in those places, healing and hope can take root. First Unitarian Church of Dallas is devoted to genuine inclusion, depth and joy, reason and spirit. We have been a voice of progressive religion in Dallas since 1899, working toward a more just and compassionate world in all of what we do.

Speaking from his Brown County home, Reverend Peyton of Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band shared his deep passion for music as a universal language, describing how audiences worldwide, even in countries where English isn't spoken, connect with American roots music. He reflected on the rich, multicultural origins of American music—from West African vocal traditions and Celtic rhythms to Hawaiian guitar techniques—and how these influences have shaped blues, country, and rock. Peyton traced his own diverse ancestry, from Norman and Viking roots to West African heritage, and sees a connection between his lineage and his musical inclinations. Discussing his creative process, he explained that he writes daily, letting melody guide lyrics and drawing inspiration from life, nature, and travel. While fame brings challenges, Peyton treasures the global friendships forged through his music and advises young artists to create primarily for themselves, trusting that authenticity will find its audience.

What does it mean to speak the truth of the Blues on the very soil where our ancestors were enslaved?In this live broadcast, Lamont Jack Pearley—traditional Bluesman, folklorist, and founder of the Jack Dappa Blues Heritage Preservation Foundation—reflects on being invited to present his original scholarship on Blues Ecology at Hopson Plantation, once home to Blues legend Pinetop Perkins.As we close out Black Music History Month, this episode holds space for a necessary conversation about land, memory, and music. We'll explore how different landscapes—Mississippi's cotton fields and Louisiana's red-light districts—shaped different kinds of Blues, and why where we honor the Blues matters just as much as how we do it.Through personal reflection, fieldwork excerpts, and live performance, we ask:Can you celebrate the Blues without honoring the history that created it?Join us tonight for truth-telling, music, and memory from the Delta to the mic.

HAPPY 400TH EPISODE - Thanks to all listeners and subscribers for your continued support!!! :)Smoke and Stack (both played by Michael B. Jordan) are twin brothers who also are both recent World War I veterans and Chicago gangsters. It's 1932 and they have now returned to their home town in the MIssissippi Delta to start their own juke joint. They find the right spot and recruiter plenty of friends and family to get involved including their cousin Sammie (Miles Caton) who plays a mean guitar and Smoke's ex-wife Annie (Wunmi Mosaku) who cooks some great catfish. They gather various talent and kick off what looks like a promising night of blues music and merry......though there appear to be some unexpected visitors who come calling lead by Remmick (Jack O' Connell) and needless to say, these guys seem to be thirsty....though not for what you would expect. :o And what results is one wild, CRAZY night....not every one is likely to survive that night either! Hailee Steinfeld, Delroy Lindo, and Jayme Lawson are also part of this extended cast in this raucous horror musical (?) from Oscar-nominated director Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed).
