Podcast appearances and mentions of ed jurdi

Episode 254: Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist have built a remarkable creative partnership over the past 17  years, ever since their fates collided at an Austin bar called Momo's. Songwriter residencies blurred into a proto band, and before long they were killing it in Texas and beyond as The Band of Heathens. It's been a consistent, resilient group, releasing impressive albums and playing soul satisfying country flavored rock and roll with excellent songwriting and singing. The most recent album Simple Things proved their staying power nationwide with a run of six weeks at No. 1 on the Americana airplay chart. Ed and Gordy join Craig from their homes in Austin and Asheville for a talk about origins, evolution and longevity. 

Jamie chats with Ed Jurdi of Band of Heathens about their new record, "Simple Things".

In the fall of 2005, four musicians—Ed Jurdi, Gordy Quist, Brian Keen and Colin Brooks—all had residencies at Momo's, the since-shuttered music club on West 6th Street in Austin, Texas. Ultimately, the four songwriters found themselves jamming each week, sharing a bill in what was lightly called “The Good Time Supper Club” on the Momo's stage.   It became a local staple of the thriving Austin music scene and the stage became “an extended hang,” as Quist noted, somewhat joking that the performances “specialized in tequila and trainwrecks.” He said it was, “a good time for cutting our teeth on danger and taking chances on music and experiencing the magic that comes from that.”   After a misprint in a local newspaper billed the act as "The Heathens," the collective became known as “The Band of Heathens”—our latest guests on The Load Out Music Podcast.   Over a 16-month-period, the group began to galvanize into what would become what remains a force today in Americana-driven rock-and-roll. Now led by Jurdi and Quist, The Band of Heathens has built one of the most dedicated followings for an independent act worldwide.   “It was exciting,” said Jurdi of those formative years. “Everything was very new at that point. So, we were sort of sharing in all these experiences together.”   There was an unquestioned magic that they all could sense, even in the beginning. The band's first recording, Live from Momo's, brought the band national attention and they were voted "Best New Band" at the 2007 Austin Music Awards.     “The fact that we received ‘Best New Band' was a nice reflection of Austin and the scene and the collaboration of the scene,” Jurdi said.   Ultimately, the great Ray Wylie Hubbard—a past guest on The Load Out—signed on to produce The Band of Heathens' self-titled first record.   “Ray is a legend and is a great guy,” Quist said.” He took us under his wing and said, like, ‘let me show you how to make a good record.' He specializes in vibe and cool.”

The three original principal songwriters - Colin Brooks, Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist - shared the bill at Momo's, an Austin club.[1] Originally, each singer/songwriter performed his own set. However, they eventually started sharing the stage, and collaborating with bassist Seth Whitney. The Wednesday night series was billed as "The Good Time Supper Club". A misprint in a local paper billed the act as "The Heathens." Drummer John Chipman joined the band in 2007, and Keyboardist Trevor Nealon, who played in the studio during the recording of both "One Foot in the Ether" and "Top Hat Crown & the Clapmaster's Son", joined the touring unit in 2011.Their first recording, "Live from Momo's", recorded at the now closed club on West 6th Street in Austin brought the band national attention and they were voted "Best New Band" at the 2007 Austin Music Awards. Following the Momo's release, the band released a second live recording, the CD/DVD "Live at Antone's" which was recorded at the venerable Austin club.May 20, 2008 the band released their first, self-titled, studio album. Produced by Ray Wylie Hubbard, and featuring notable guests Patty Griffin, Stephen Bruton, and Gurf Morlix, the record went to #1 on the Americana Music Association's radio charts. In November 2008 the album was ranked 8th place on the Americana Music Association's Top 100 Albums of the Americana Charts for 2008.[2]In July 2009 BOH taped an Austin City Limits show that aired in the Fall of 2009. The year was especially significant for ACL in that Austin City Limits was celebrating its 35th anniversary year. The band's unique genesis and creativity were highlighted during the Austin City Limits interview conducted after their performance.[3] The TV performance showcased a set by both the Band Of Heathens and Elvis Costello.[4]

Dentro de poco más de un mes se edita el décimo quinto álbum de Jackson Browne, Downhill From Everywhere, el primero en seis años y que supone un regreso al intimismo que nos dejaron sus primitivos trabajos, hace casi medio siglo. Es una metáfora de la propia vida representada en la ciudad de Los Ángeles que hoy abre nuestro programa. Rodney Crowell ha cantado a su amnesia total transitoria, un episodio benigno y por suerte temporal de pérdida de memoria, que sufrió en plena pandemia. Es uno de los temas más introspectivos de su nuevo disco que resume cuestiones relativas a encontrar respuestas y consuelo en el caos. Songs and Music from She's the One que Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers pusieron en el mercado en 1996 será reeditada a primeros de julio con cuatro temas inéditos. Esta vez, el disco pasa a llamarse Angel Dream, aunque hoy mismo está en el mercado de manera especial para celebrar el Record Store Day en una edición limitada en vinilo de color azul. Viajar es una de las grandes recompensas de un músico, y Travis Linville lo sabe bien. Con JD McPherson como productor de su nuevo álbum, I’m Still Here, inyecta el afán de volver a la carretera sin mirar atrás, bajar las ventanillas del coche, subir el volumen… y recuperar el tiempo perdido. Producido por Sadler Vader, que se ha llevado sus compañeros de la 400 Unit de Jason Isbell, incluyendo al líder, Zach Schmidt se ha descolgado con un álbum de extraordinaria solidez donde encontramos canciones que se escuchan en bucle. Pero no olvidemos a Brock Gonyea desde las tierras del estado de Nueva York compartiendo canciones del presente que parecen temas perdidos en grabaciones de décadas casi olvidadas. “We’ll Be Alright”, una oda al amor, es muy posiblemente la canción del nuevo álbum de Lukas Nelson & Promise Of The Real en la que su líder se manifiesta más cercano a las formas de su padre, Willie Nelson. A Few Stars Apart, su nuevo disco, se editó ayer incidiendo en la conexión entre todos nosotros, dando una importancia fundamental a la familia, los amigos y el propio yo. Otra de las bandas que se ha convertido en habitual del Bunker de Bruce Robison es Reckless Kelly, que comandan los hermanos Braun. Su reciente grabación analógica de “Thinkin' Bout You All Night” nos devuelve la sensación de normalidad. Es algo que también ocurre con The Flatlanders, el trío que conforman desde hace décadas Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore y Butch Hancock . "She Belongs to Me" es una de las canciones que se han incluido en Treasure of Love, su primer disco en más de una década. Asleep At The Wheel, la mejor banda de carretera de la historia y toda una leyenda para los amantes del Western swing, quiere celebrar su medio siglo de existencia con Better Times, un doble álbum que se editará en octubre pero que se anticipa ahora con ese tema central y dos de apoyo que transmiten esperanza en estos tiempos. Incluso Ed Jurdi y Gordy Quist de Band of Heathens han colaborado con una canción que muestra su versatilidad. Y para cerrar el programa de hoy hemos contado con The Shootouts, el grupo establecido al noroeste del estado de Ohio que hace guiños a las canciones que sonaban en las radios de country music en la década de los 90, como es evidente en "Saturday Night Town".

When I first heard of Band of Heathens a few years ago, it was because someone slapped the album Duende in my face. It’s a great listen, but it came out like 3 years ago. Since then Band of Heathens have also released a great cover of the Ray Charles album “A Message From the People”. So I was pretty excited to hear that the band which I hold in high regard due to their lyrics and musicianship had a new record “Stranger” coming. So we hooked up with our old pal Ed Jurdi a veteran of this podcast and one of the band’s primary songwriters to talk about all the twists and turns the album takes, and all the influences that are very apparent. The conversation started when I asked why there was such a delay in releasing new original material.

Last Friday, Trigger Hippy released their sophomore record Full Circle and Then Some. This is a band that has sort been on quasi hiatus at least from the public for quite some time, and that record, five years in the making brings them back into the spotlight. The band, comprised of bassist Nick Govrick and Steve Gorman, now includes Ed Jurdi and Amber Woodhouse. They’ve had several other members in the band over the years including Audley Freed, Jackie Greene and Joan Osborne. Their music blends stuff we love like rock, soul, Americana and more, so we were delighted to hear they had a new record.

The Rock N Roll Archaeologist sits down with founding member, Ed Jurdi to discuss the origins of the band and their newest album, a re-imagining of Ray Charles’ 1972 political record “A Message from the People”. Ed tells us given the current political climate in America, he and the band wanted to comment without being overt or preachy. They looked to Brother Ray for inspiration and decided since you can’t out genius the great man, perhaps you could recreate it for a new generation.

In 1972, Ray Charles released “A Message for the People”, a record, that combined his soul and R&B style with some distinctly country nuance. The album, now out of print is filled with really important, socially conscious songs delivered in a way only Ray could. Almost 50 years later, the stories of these songs still resonate, so much so, that the Band of Heathens decided to cover the album in its entirety, of course putting their own more modern, classic rock and country spin on it. We recently sat down with Ed Jurdi, to talk about A Message for the People - Revisited and its relevance today. Both A Message for the People and A Message for the People Revisited are two incredible albums you should check out. The former, the original from Ray Charles may be harder to find, but the Revisited record is available on all your favorite streaming services and of course to purchase at bandofheathens.com. Band of Heathens continues to be one of my favorite bands out their on the road, and they are definitely worth checking out.

When I sit down each week to compile The Sound Podcast’s Weekly Mix-Tape playlist, the goal is always to find artists and songs that fit the general philosophy of music that we love. Meaningful, inspirational tunes, that are genuine in their creation, and authentic in their sound. Obviously the playlist is compiled from songs and artists that we already know and love, but sometimes, I come across a new artist that is new to me, that may in fact may not be new to anyone else. Such apparently was the case when we added Sugar Queen by The Band of Heathens last week. I didn’t realize at the time, that the band had quite a large following and through there 13 years of writing and performing music they had honed their craft into quite a career. So I was elated to sit down with Ed Jurdi to talk about his band, The Band of Heathens, to learn more about them, their inspiration, and a whole lot more.
