In this revealing episode of The MCP, I sit down with Grammy-nominated songwriter, guitarist, and Americana mainstay Will Kimbrough for a wide-ranging conversation on the hard truths and quiet joys of a life in music.From his early days as a 12 year old electric guitar player to getting signed to EMI, and then John Prine's Oh Boy Records, to his work with Jimmy Buffett, Shemekia Copeland, and Todd Snider, Will offers a masterclass in musical longevity, humility, and hustle.A few of the stories and names he mentions reminded me of what I sometimes foolishly take for granted — namely my geographical proximity to musical greatness. For instance celebrated producer Jay Joyce has a studio not 50 hundred feet away from where I now sit, and in the other direction, three houses opposite, is Eric McConnell's studio, the legendary location where was recorded my favorite album of all time, Todd Snider's East Nashville Skyline.Incidentally, in the picture at top I am sitting across the table from that album's producer. I was so excited I had to share the story of discovering that album in a CD listening station at Waterloo records in Austin in the closing moments of an otherwise very dismal experience, which was me playing SXSW in 2004. That album is why I moved to East Nashville, and why I live there still. Crazy but true.Back to Will. Kimbrough opens up about navigating the highs and lows of the industry—learning to trust a team, the freedom of doing things DIY, and how obligation can become an artist's best creative ally. His career parallels a number of iconic Nashville personalities and institutions, like Mike Grimes (with whom Kimbrough formed the beloved trio the Bis-quits and signed to Prine's Oh Boy Records).Finally we get into his life-changing work with veterans through Songwriting with Soldiers and post-traumatic growth programs, and share a few stories about sobriety (his, mostly) and how he's managed to steer clear of some of the darker potholes that might have otherwise claimed a career now well into in its fourth decade.And yes—there's a live performance Kimbrough's song “For the Life of Me,” with me in there on guitar.00:00:00 "Desired Obligation" 00:01:08 Congrats on the Grammy Nom, Will 00:03:06 What caught your ear early on? 00:04:12 Seeing Bruce Springsteen on your 12th birthday 00:05:19 Riffing with Doyle at Grimey's about the power of earlier radio 00:06:18 The first thing Will did with an electric guitar 00:09:04 Constant Throughput makes you less precious 00:10:19 Riffing on Jay Joyce 00:11:51 Getting signed - "the shackles were on" 00:17:22 The collateral positives of getting signed 00:20:18 how to negotiate the tension between personal freedom and teamwork 00:23:11 Meeting Jimmy Buffett through Todd Snider 00:24:32 Trying to get dropped and forming the Bis-quits 00:26:49 Energy optimism and drive in finding a manager or launching a record 00:27:20 Why is it you make your best work when you're in a bad way? 00:28:48 Will's collective songwriting 00:31:31 Writing records with Todd Snider East Nashville Skyline and the Devil You Know 00:32:33 Korby's "East Nashville Skyline" story 00:35:54 The story about Todd Snider's fallout with Jimmy Buffett 00:38:00 Getting addicted to the school of Todd and Rodney Crowell and that crew 00:38:56 A version of the dream as expressed by Korby 00:39:55 Working with Shemekia Copeland 00:40:44 Warrior PATHH program 00:41:39 Wills Bob Dylan movie story 00:44:42 Setting up "For the Life of Me" live in studio 00:53:06 Will Kimbrough performs "For the Life of Me" 00:57:07 "Addicted to gratitude" 00:59:53 A story about John Prine's "Hello in there" 01:02:50 Are you melancholy or even-keeled? 01:05:41 How have you stayed open to the constant change? 01:07:30 Some notes on sobriety 01:12:27 That plato quote about everyone is fighting a hard battle 01:15:17 Talking about reading and writing 01:17:15 How a story about a song connects people 01:18:00 A story about writing with Jimmy Buffett Get full access to The Morse Code with Korby Lenker at korby.substack.com/subscribe

The Pal's & Corey Kent Episode 238 This episode was a two-parter. The first is a Morgan Wallen concert review followed by a quick 20 minute sit down with rising country star Corey Kent. Oklahoma native/Texas based Corey Kent releases his major label debut Blacktop today via RCA Nashville/Sony Music Nashville.

Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit — stripped-down sets, an intimate setting — just a different space. Bob Boilen | September 14, 2020 Declan McKenna and his band rock their Tiny Desk (home) concert. Their "home," in this case, is The Foundry, a neighboring studio in North London. Declan is decked out with glitter, channeling a more flamboyant side of rock than I've seen from him before. He's still immersed in complex storytelling with characters on the fringes, alienated for reasons of class and politics. Three of the songs are from Zeros, his brand new album recorded in Nashville with producer Jay Joyce. It's been a wild three-year ride since the release of his teenage smash debut What Do You Think About the Car? He's now 21 and leads a fiery, honed band that developed serious chops after a few years of touring; Isabel Torres (guitar), Nathan Cox (keyboards), William Bishop (bass), and Gabrielle Marie King (drums) all propel the songs of Declan McKenna.

Liz Phair crashed into the indie-rock world in a huge way in the early ‘90s with her instant classic album Exile In Guyville, and she was already the talk of the town—in this case Chicago—before she had even performed publicly. It was an auspicious start to a fascinating career that went from indie-world stardom to Lilith Fair to composing for films and TV to a consciously pop-leaning album to a fantastic memoir called Horror Stories. And it comes full circle, sort of, with her new album Soberish, which she created with the help of producer Brad Wood, with whom she worked on her early albums, including Exile. Zella Day took a very different path in her music life, starting out very young—at age 15—trying to write songs and make it in Nashville. That led to a revelation that she'd rather perform herself, and eventually a record deal and 2015's pop-centric album Kicker. She played Coachella and other huge festivals, but wasn't fully satisfied with where she was artistically, as you'll hear in this chat. After relocating to L.A., she fell in with a slightly more serious crowd, included pals like Lana Del Rey and Weyes Blood, and her music shifted a bit. She's currently working on an album with producer Jay Joyce, and recently released a song with Natalie Mering of Weyes Blood called “Holocene.” Phair and Day hit it off right away in this conversation, diving right into a conversation about restarting their careers post-COVID—Phair's dad is a retired infectious diseases expert, which gave her some unique insight—as well as the challenges of not giving too much of yourself during an album's promotional cycle. They also tackle the meaning of the word “sober-ish,” which is pretty great. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Liz Phair and Zella Day for chatting. This episode was produced by Melissa Kaplan, and the Talkhouse theme was composed and performed by the Range. See you next time!

Like Bob Dylan, Patty shocked a lot of people when she ‘went electric’ on this record, and we get into why this album was different to her folky debut, the reactions upon its release, why it’s impossible to put Patty in a genre box, how Jillette has been inspired to expand and evolve her sound on her new record and more.

Punk rock guitar player turned mega-hit Nashville producer, Jay Joyce, is here to tell us how Music Row thinks it's cute that he's not actually a fan of country music!
My guest today is Marc Frigo a mix engineer, recording engineer, and producer based out of Nashville, TN with multi-platinum credits and over 29 years of experience. Marc started out in his hometown of Chicago in 1990 but relocated to Nashville, TN in early 1991 where he became a staff engineer at Woodland Studios. It was there that he was able to work with and learn from some of the best engineers and producers in the world, such as producers Peter Collins, Don Was, T-Bone Burnett, Tony Brown, Josh Leo, Jay Joyce and engineers David Leonard, Steve Marcantonio, Rick Will, Bob Bullock, Steve Tillisch, Bill Schnee, and so many others that were great mentors. During his days as an assistant engineer, he worked on projects with Bob Seger, Keith Urban, Restless Heart, Tammy Wynette, George Jones, The Divinyls, Nancy Griffith, Larry Carlton, Gillian Welch, and the list goes on. Eventually moving out of assisting and into engineering, Marc engineered and/or mixed projects for The Indigo Girls, K.T. Oslin, Nelson, Dez Dickerson (of Prince & The Revolution) Israel Houghton, Jewel, and Future Leaders of the World to name a few. Marc also recorded and mixed the "Larry Boy" theme song featuring Nicole C. Mullen for the popular Veggie Tales children's video series, which went on to sell 15 million copies. Marc And I Met when I was interning at Woodland and I’m psyched to be reconnecting 25 years later! Thanks to our sponsors!

Va a ser difícil recuperarnos de la pérdida de John Prine, a quien ayer dedicamos nuestro programa. Su muerte ha dejado huérfana a la comunidad de la Americana music. No hace mucho, Jason Isbell realizaba esta interpretación acústica de "Hello in There", una canción perteneciente al disco de debut del mítico artista de Illinois allá por 1971. Esa canción surgió a partir de “Across The Universe” de John Lennon y se convirtió en una reflexión conmovedora sobre el envejecimiento. La versión de Jason isbell ha formado parte del recopilatorio Music Moments de la Asociación del Alzheimer, un proyecto en el que los artistas abordan canciones que aprecian a nivel emocional. Old Crow Medicine Show ha querido enviar un mensaje positivo con una nueva canción, "Nashville Rising", compuesta por su líder Ketch Secor poco después del tornado que devastó la capital de Tennessee el pasado 3 de marzo. Poco antes de que las medidas para combatir el coronavirus lo impidieran, el grupo se reunió con invitados tan especiales como Molly Tuttle, Shelly Colvin y Skylar Wilson, en el estudio que el grupo tiene en East Nashville para grabar todos juntos "Nashville Rising", cuyos ingresos serán donados al Fondo de Respuesta a Emergencias de la Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee. El nuevo álbum de Ashley McBryde, Never Will, supone el cuarto de la carrera de esta nativa de Waldron, Arkansas, que tras autoeditarse un álbum de debut en 2007 se trasladó a Nashville para buscar su lugar en la escena de la Country music. Tras una segundo álbum, fue una canción como "A Little Dive Bar in Dahlonega" la que llamó la atención de todos nosotros hace tres años y nos hizo profundizar en sus composiciones. El productor Jay Joyce se puso a su lado y un trabajo como Going Going Nowhere la hizo despegar definitivamente. Después de una curiosa serie de singles y vídeos que anticiparon su nuevo registro, “Velvet Red” se convierte en su tema más enraizado. 25 Trips es el quinto álbum de Sierra Hull, una de las más sólidas representantes del bluegrass hecho por mujeres y una de las mandolinistas más consideradas del género. Esta jovencísima nativa de Byrdstown, en Tennessee, ha dado un paso más en su nueva grabación, incluyendo elementos a los que no había recurrido en sus grabaciones anteriores, como es la utilización de la batería y la electrificación de la guitarra y la mandolina. Eso supone un cierto toque aperturista dentro de un estilo no demasiado proclive precisamente a reflexionar en ese sentido. El disco vuelve a ser una delicia sonora a la que han sido invitados su propio marido, Justin Moses, junto a instrumentistas del prestigio de Stuart Duncan, Bryan Sutton y Viktor Krauss que en temas como “Poison”, compuesto junto a la virginiana Laura Leigh Jones, recuperan la frescura y naturalidad de tocar en vivo con una sincronización perfecta. También hemos viajado hasta Montana, donde se crió Tessy Lou Williams rodeada de un ambiente musical que comenzó en la banda familar, Montana Rose, que iniciaron sus padres. Esas son las raíces que la llevaron a Austin y posteriormente a Nashville, donde ahora publicará su disco de debut, de título homónimo, marcado por la tradición y con el apoyo de Ashley Campbell, Brennen Leigh, Carl Jackson, Larry Cordle, Jon Randall y algunos otros. "Mountain Time in Memphis", es una canción que describe a la perfección la situación de una mujer con una nueva vida en Tennessee pero que dejó el amor en Montana. En la composición ha intervenido Jerry Salley, su primer contacto en Music City y con quién empezó a escribir canciones. Frente a la imagen poco real que suele dibujar la industria de Nashville, cada vez encontramos más “forajidas” que contraponer su respeto y cariño por la tradición musical. Este es el caso de Jess Jocoy, que acaba de lanzar su primer álbum, Such A Long Way, como continuación de su debut de 2018 con el EP New Heart/Old Soul. La artista del sur de Seattle, en el estado de Washington, llegó a Nashville para convertir su esperanza de compartir sus experiencias y su propia visión de la realidad y así lo manifiesta en canciones como "The Ballad of Two Lovers", que trata sobre cuando a una relación de tiempo le quitas el romanticismo de estar enamorado. Es una especie de conmovedor homenaje a la disfunción del amor, y muestra que se puede salir de una situación tan triste. Eilen Jewell es una mujer inquieta a la que un periodo de cuarentena no la la detiene, de tal forma que ha recuperado uno de los grandes clásicos de la country music como “A Satisfied Man” para sacarlo a la luz aprovechando estas fechas de Pascua. Eilen solía tocarla con su grupo The Sacred Shakers, su grupo de góspel, aunque no es un tema religioso. La grabó en el Audio Lab de Garden City, en Idaho, con los otros tres miembros de su banda, su marido Jason Beek, Matt Murphy y Jerry Miller. Red Hays, que había compuesto “A Satisfied Man” junto a Jack Rhodes, la grabó por primera vez en 1954. Al año siguiente, Porter Wagoner la llevó al No. 1 de las listas de country y los Byrds la versionaron magistralmente en su segundo álbum Turn, Turn, Turn de 1965. 2020 es año bisiesto y se está haciendo notar en su aspecto más negativo. A la trágica pandemia se ha unido la muerte de otros músicos por diferentes causas, como ha sido el caso de Bill Withers, que moría por problemas cardíacos el pasado día 30 de marzo. Joan Osborne, una cantautora que nunca ha dejado de sorprendernos dando clases magistrales de cómo interpretar temas de cualquier estilo musical, desde el country al rhythm and blues. La artista, originaria de Anchorage, un suburbio de Louisville, en Kentucky, se marchó a Nueva York en los 80 y desde entonces ha venido desarrollando una actividad musical encomiable. Breakfast In Bed fue su trabajo de hace 13 años, donde repasaba algunos de los mayores éxitos del rhythm and blue en los últimos 60 y primeros 70. Ese es el caso de “Ain’t No Sunshine”, la canción más popular para Bill Withers, que la incluyó en Just As I Am, su álbum de debut en 1971. Se trata de una canción de desamor atemporal, en la que se canta a un mundo desprovisto de amor y de luz. Y todo en escasamente tres minutos. Una obra maestra. Bill Whiters nos dejó impecables muestras de su poderío como compositor e intérprete en sus años de carrera. Ahí está, por ejemplo, “Lean On Me”, un majestuoso apunte de nostalgia de ese músico, ahora desaparecido, procedente de la zona minera de West Virginia que en 1972 alcanzaba la cima de las listas de soul y pop en Estados Unidos en la voz de su propio compositor. Por otro lado, Eric Bibb es un neoyorquino cuya familia tiene puntos de encuentro con el Modern Jazz Quartet, Pete Seeger, Odetta o Paul Robeson, y que posee la rara habilidad de fusionar el blues tradicional con sonidos más contemporáneos gracias a una extraordinaria versatilidad. Junto a Maria Muldaur y Rory Block nos dejó esta versión impagable de aquel clásico de hace más de cuatro décadas que ahora vuelve a estar más presente que nunca. “Lean On Me” (Apóyate en mí) fue el primer single del segundo álbum de Bill Withers, Still Bill, en 1972, pero la inspiración vino de muchos años antes. Fue la camaradería de su ciudad natal, una comunidad minera de carbón en West Virginia, la que le llevó a componerla sentado al piano en Los Ángeles, a más de 2.500 millas de distancia. Early Morning Rain supondrá el primero de mayo el más reciente trabajo de Steve Forbert, un álbum que también bucea en canciones que están escritas en las páginas más brillantes de la historia de la música popular de raíces norteamericanas. Es un reconocimiento entrañable y formal a lo que representan por sí mismas 11 de sus canciones favoritas de las que tan solo una está compuesta después de 1973. Entre las seleccionadas está "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues", que fue grabada por primera vez en 1967 por su creador, Danny O’Keefe, un cantante y compositor de Spokane, en el estado de Washington, que no la sacó a la luz hasta 1971 cuando publicó el primero de sus álbumes y que volvió a grabar para el segundo. Ha tenido infinidad de lecturas posteriores y entre las más cercanas en el tiempo recordamos las de Charley Crockett en 2018 y Ronnie Dunn en este mismo año. Midland concluyó su Electric Rodeo Tour en la primavera del pasado año con una sonada actuación en el Ryman Auditorium. El trío tejano de Dripping Springs estaba probando las canciones de su último álbum de estudio, Let It Roll, que publicaría en verano, y al que ha continuado una grabación en directo realizada en el legendario The Palomino de Los Angeles a comienzos de este año. Desde sus inicios, Midland procuraron equilibrar su devoción por las inclinaciones más neo-tradicionalistas del George Strait de los 80 con la riqueza armónica de de la dorada California de la década anterior que entronizó a los Eagles. La banda alterna sus canciones más reconocidas con algunas versiones que abarcan una extensa gama de posibilidades y que permiten escuchar canciones de John Denver, ZZ Top, Allman Brothers o Tom Petty. Incluso tuvieron tiempo de entrar en el estudio para grabar una sesión exclusiva para Amazon que dejó esta revisión de “Wicked Game”, que Chris Isaak, que subió al escenario con ellos en una de sus presentaciones en suelo californiano, firmó para su álbum de 1989 Heart Shaped World, convirtiéndose en un éxito absoluto cuando formó parte de la banda sonora de la película de David Lynch Wild at Heart –Corazón salvaje- al año siguiente.

Growing up in Dallas, John Thomasson found the bass guitar the same way many did - a friend started a band and no one else played bass. He attended the Booker T. Washington School for the Performing and Visual Arts, and then the University of North Texas, where he studied music. After that, he was part of a band called Little Sister (later changed to Sister 7) and had some minor radio hits in the 90s. After moving to Austin, John started playing with one of his heroes - Davíd Garza, playing on his first major label record called This Euphoria. In 2000, John got married, quit playing music for the most part and went back to school to get a degree in Psychology and focused on musical cognition. After working some tech jobs at Apple and Hewlett Packard, he wanted to play a little bit more while preparing for grad school. He started recording and touring with Matt Nathanson in 2004, and one of Matt's songs that John played on was "Come on Get Higher", a double-platinum single. Working with Matt also gave him the chance to play on the original Conan O’Brien show and Late Night With David Letterman.After the birth of his first son, John and his growing family moved to Nashville in the fall of 2009. There, he learned about the family-friendly way that Nashville acts toured and that sealed the deal for him. He landed the gig with Little Big Town in April of 2010 and has toured with them ever since. During that time, he also recorded with LBT on numerous successful records, including: Tornado (platinum album) which featured hit singles "Pontoon" and "Tornado", Pain Killer (Platinum album) which including the triple-platinum single "Girl Crush" and gold single "Day Drinking", The Breaker, Wanderlust (produced by Pharrell Williams), and most recently, Nightfall (Self Produced).Spotify playlist of some of John's work:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0s9wubeza5T6XMKuZNyeED?si=vj4C1X7fTiWhrsQnU7E-MwJohn Thomasson on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/johnthom/Little Big Town website:http://www.littlebigtown.com/Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=9JCBNUCRNRVKY&source=url)

Todd is back, in studio this time, with his #3pick!! Todd tells the story of seeing Cage the Elephant in concert and getting kicked in the head by lead singer Matthew Shultz! We also discuss how this wild lead singer might be looked back on by the next generation of listeners... Melophobia is the third studio album by American rock band Cage the Elephant. Recorded at St. Charles in Nashville, Tennessee and produced by Jay Joyce, the album was released on October 8, 2013, through RCA Records. It is also the final album that features lead guitarist Lincoln Parish. For Melophobia, Cage the Elephant attempted to distance themselves from comparisons of the sound that influenced them, shutting themselves off from as much recorded music as possible. Melophobia means "fear of music"; the band did not view the term literally, but rather thought of the term as "a fear of creating music to project premeditated images of self, like catering to cool, or making music to project an image of being intellectual or artistic or poetic, rather than just trying to be an honest communicator." *** Todd's bio : Award-winning Todd Anstett has brought the world 'VRS - Be Kind, Rewatch'. He is also a meteorologist located in East Coast Canada. A slightly younger perspective on the show leanings to more of a modern rock presentation.

The Claim2Fame Podcast is a resource for artists Every episode features successful artists and industry experts sharing compelling stories and valuable knowledge about the music industry hosted by CMA, ACM & CCMA Award Winning Broadcaster Cliff Dumas. Cliff talks to Ashley McBryde. One of Rollingstone's Top 10 New Country Artists to Watch this year about writing music even when you're having a bad day. Ashley McBryde Dubbed as one of Rolling Stone’s “Artists You Need To Know," citing she's "an Arkansas red-clay badass, with the swagger of Hank Jr. and the songwriting of Miranda Lambert," McBryde fearlessly lays it all on the line, and it's that honest all-in approach that has led to NPR critic Ann Powers to ask if McBryde could be "among the first post-Stapleton country stars?" McBryde's album will showcase an artistic vision that will prove her to be one of the genre's keenest working storytellers, bringing unwavering honesty back into a pop-preoccupied genre. Pulling tales from every corner of her human experience, McBryde sings with fire and fury, laughing and swigging that brown stuff along the way. McBryde was raised in Mammoth Spring, Arkansas. At three, she'd secretly pluck her father's guitar like an upright bass, and after about the 17th time being caught, her father bought her a guitar of her own. When she was twelve, she played her parents and grandparents her very first composition. It was at Arkansas State when, while a member of the marching band, McBryde finally started sharing her voice with others, and finally moved to Nashville in 2007 where steadily worked a circuit of dive bars, biker hangouts, and colorful joints fighting to have her songs heard. Her first EP, the self-released 2016 Jalopies and Expensive Guitars was just a taste of what McBryde can do, and, on her full-length debut, she will meld her songwriting chops with the vision of producer Jay Joyce, peppering her tales with a touch of guitar-driven rock fury. McBryde isn’t afraid to tell the truth, get raw and real and use the spirits of country, folk and rock when it serves her greater purpose. And that's to tell the stories that shake us, make us and tell us a little more about what it's like to be human.

Today John Osborne stopped by the studio to talk with us, and it ended up being one of the most fun podcasts to date. To those not in the know, John is a killer player and member of the CMA nominated country duo “Brothers Osborne.” John talks about touring with Eric Church, being called on to Dwight Yoakum’s tour bus and recording with producer Jay Joyce. We talk about how playing music at Nashville’s Country Music Marathon is like being in a reverse marching band, how photo shoots largely consist of people asking you to be cooler than you are, and how you should be able to campaign to win a CMA once you’ve been nominated, including negative campaign ads.
