In this arts24 interview, Grammy-nominated poet aja monet joins us in Paris to talk about her new collection "Florida Water" and what it means to make art in a moment of political turmoil. She opens up about living through the new wave of American culture-war battles – from book bans to attacks on arts funding – and explains why she believes poetry has become an important tool for resistance, healing and community. aja monet also reflects on the heartbreak at the centre of "Florida Water", her long-standing activism for Palestine and the loneliness she sees shaping a generation. With poems like "Castaway" and "For Sonia", she explores how poetry can help us face climate grief, injustice and the feeling of being overwhelmed by the world.

Grammy Nominated Zydeco Master Corey Ledet On a tour through Russia, Ledet was treated like royalty, complete with his own security detail. Fans rushed to touch the band's signature zydeco rubboard — the metal, shoulder-slung vest used to scratch out those infectious rhythms. Enthralled by its sound, they nicknamed it the “magic instrument.”Ledet has taken his music everywhere — Hawaii, Canada, Europe — and always hoped to capture the electricity of his live shows. But the right moment for a live album never quite appeared. That changed when the Anchorage Folk Festival invited him to perform. “When that came up, I thought, this might finally be the chance,” said Ledet, 44, a two-time Grammy nominee. “When I arrived, they had everything ready to record. I started thinking about Clifton Chenier — a lot of his best live cuts were recorded far from home. It worked for the King of Zydeco, so I figured, let me try this.” The result is Live in Alaska — the debut live album from Corey Ledet Zydeco, featuring Ledet's mysterious new accordion, “Black Magic.” After combing through three days of recordings, the band chose 11 tracks that solidify Ledet's well-earned nickname: The Accordion Dragon. The album delivers high-energy, onstage versions of English and Creole favorites from Ledet's 15 previous releases, plus a brand-new track, “Alaska Funk,” an impromptu jam born right there onstage alongside his tight-knit Louisiana crew. website www.CoreyLedet.com Social Media www.Instagram.com/coreyledetzydeco About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Getty Images photographer.

Jewel went from a busking teenager living in her car to selling 30 million records worldwide—then walked away at the peak of her fame. While the world saw success, she was navigating panic attacks, trauma, and agorophobia. She realized she had broken a promise to herself made years earlier: to become a "happy, whole human—not a human full of holes." In this conversation, Jewel reveals how she built a career on her own terms—even when those terms seemed irrational to the industry—and how she continues to redesign her life today with the same commitment to peace over profit. She shares spiritual lessons she learned while growing up in rural Alaska, why she believes we should look at anxiety like we do food poisoning, and the opportunity for "breaking down" she's looking forward to next.  Today, through her Inspiring Children Foundation and the Not Alone Challenge, she's helping others do the same by providing mental health tools for people who don't have access to therapy, privilege, or a safety net. Entrepreneurs will recognize familiar terrain here: risk, self-doubt, scaling what works, walking away when it doesn't, and the personal evolution required to build anything that lasts. Key Takeaways & Topics Leaving an abusive home at 15 and choosing agency over circumstance Turning down a $1M record deal to prioritize long-term well-being Why fame triggered old wounds and how she restructured her career around values The concept of "emotional inheritance" and rewiring harmful programming Anxiety as an ally: using discomfort as a decision-making barometer Making happiness measurable and non-negotiable as a founder How to walk away or redesign when your dream stops working The Inspiring Children Foundation and Not Alone Challenge: democratizing mental-health tools Creative reinvention at 51: shifting into art and entrepreneurship again   The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam sits down with TAVE—an acclaimed London-born producer and songwriter who's now stepping boldly into the spotlight as a solo artist. You might recognize TAVE's name from his Grammy-nominated work on Black's album "Since I Have a Lover," but this episode is extra special—it's TAVE's very first interview ever. Adam leads TAVE through his story, from discovering the piano at age five thanks to an abandoned upright in his family's London home, to working the church musician circuit, eventually landing gigs on world tours with acts like Mark Morrison and All Saints—all before his 20th birthday. TAVE opens up about his struggles with sight-reading, locking into the groove of live performance, and how an IT job almost kept him from pursuing music full-time. When the pandemic hit and live gigs dried up, TAVE made a life-changing pivot: focusing on production and songwriting, dedicating himself to building a legacy that would outlast any stage. That leap of faith paid off, leading to collaborations with artists like Masego, a Grammy nod, and now the launch of his own solo project—'Difference Now' being his latest track. Honest, down-to-earth, and loaded with insight, TAVE's story is for anyone who's ever wondered what happens when you back yourself, focus on your authentic voice, and decide it's time to "leave something behind." Stick around for TAVE's advice to aspiring artists—and don't forget to subscribe to Bringin' It Backwards for more behind-the-scenes stories straight from the artists who live them.

Episode 334 features Mat Leffler-Schulman, a Baltimore-based Grammy-nominated mastering engineer. He works with artists across the country and around the world, including all of my music with The Hollow Truths. I've been meaning to have him on for a long time—not only to learn more about mastering in general, but also to talk about our new music. It was a fun, in-depth conversation about both Mat's life and work, as well as some valuable insights into the mastering process. If you need your music mastered, Mat is definitely the guy. Without turning this intro into too much of a testimonial, I can personally attest that he does excellent work and is great with communication—a key aspect of this business. You can find him on social media or via his website (linked). I'm also very excited to feature The Hollow Truths' latest song, released this week, called Chasin' a Dream (Acid in My Coffee). Thanks for listening and for supporting local artists.   https://matlefflerschulman.com

Send us a textIan Dench of the band EMF stops by the show to discuss his upcoming tour, new music, the staying power of the song 'Unbelievable', and so much more, including working with Beyonce.******* EMF British dance-rock quintet, EMF formed in Cinderford, England, in October 1989. All five original members were veterans of the local music scene before founding EMF, whose name supposedly stood for “Epsom Mad Funkers" (although it was widely speculated that the initials instead represented "Ecstasy Mother Fuckers"). Within two months of formation, the group played its first gig; after unearthing a Casio sampler and sequencer in a local thrift shop, a light techno element was added to their rock-oriented sound.Their debut album, SCHUBERT DIP, was released in May 1991. It was certified platinum (over a million copies sold) in the US in September 1991. It had reached a peak chart position of #3 in the UK and #12 in the US, as well as finishing the year at #57 overall.By the end of 1991, their infectious debut single “Unbelievable” had conquered the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, hitting #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 in the UK. The single was certified gold (over 500,000 copies sold) in the US in May 1991. The song was in such heavy rotation for most of the year in America that it finished as the #6 single overall for the year. The Chaos and the Beauty, their latest studio album, was released in 2024, and they are working on new music. announce Starting June 14, 2025, you'll be starting an 11-date West Coast tour with Space Hog.

Mona Golabek is an author, actress and Grammy Nominated concert pianist. She has an important and touching Holocaust related story. It's about her mother, Lisa Jura, at the time a 14 year old pianist living with her family in Vienna, who escaped from the Nazis to England via the Kindertransport program. Mona has written a book about this called “The Children of Willesden Lane”. She subsequently adapted it into a stage version which played in New York, London and elsewhere, starring Mona and for which she received several Best Actress nominations. Later still Mona created a foundation which has brought her mother's story to over 10 million students and communities around the world. In addition to all this, Mona is a Grammy nominated pianist and the subject of several documentaries including “Concert For Mona” with Zubin Mehta. My featured song is “Ma Petite Fleur”.
