Podcast appearances and mentions of Jim Brickman

The Undercovers are paying tribute to Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton with their debut single, "Islands In The Stream” (Green Hill). Watch the music video for their stunning new version of the beloved crossover hit here: https://youtu.be/Jv7j4SU-cPg The Undercovers is a musical supergroup consisting of three of Canada's most respected vocalists. The trio has united to reimagine timeless songs by some of the most iconic artist of all time, but their own career credits are equally impressive. Luke McMaster's writing credits have sold millions of copies for superstars like Rihanna, and he has collaborated with legends like Smokey Robinson, Lamont Dozier, Felix Cavaliere and Jim Brickman, who he teamed up with for their hit single, “Good Morning, Beautiful.” Joel Parisien is best known as the front man for Newworldson, earning four Juno Award nominations, penning three Top 5 Billboard singles, and headlining festivals around the world. And Kevin Pauls is a Gospel and CCM icon, often sharing the stage with many of his musical heroes such as Gaither Vocal Band, Michael English, Russ Taff, Steve Archer, Steven Curtis Chapman and more. The group is currently touring North America with their incredible live concert event, ROGERS RICHIE & ROBINSON - the songs of Kenny Rogers, Lionel Richie & Smokey Robinson. Abandoning costumes and wigs, the group focuses on the brilliance of iconic songs, reimagined in a signature stripped down acoustic style as they reimagine timeless songs that have become the soundtrack of our lives… Classics like Smokey's "Cruising", Kenny's “The Gambler” or Lionel's "Endless Love" like you've never heard them before. Smokey Robinson himself is a fan, and called the trio's version of “Ooh Baby Baby” the best cover of his cherished song that he's ever heard. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gary-stuckey/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gary-stuckey/support

Grammy winning new age pianist Peter Kater and Paul Cardall, also an award winning pianist, discuss Peter's career and the history new age music. They talk about building successful and prosperous independent music careers in a genre often misunderstood and overlooked by the commercial market. ABOUT PETER KATERWebsite: http://www.peterkater.comFacebookTwitterYoutubeInstagram Listen to Peter KaterSpotifyApple MusicAmazon Music Peter Kater was born of German parents in the Bavarian City of Munich. At the age of seven, not long after moving to New Jersey, his mother insisted that he take classical piano lessons. At the age of 18 Peter left New Jersey with his backpack and his music books and hitch-hiked all around the continental US for over a year. He slept in parks and on beaches and roadsides across the country while stopping to play piano at restaurants and lounges for tips and meals. After logging in over 30,000 miles on the road Peter landed in Boulder, Colorado, finding comfort and inspiration in the Rocky Mountains which reminded him of his childhood upbringing in the Bavarian Alps. Shortly thereafter he started listening to the music of pianist Keith Jarrett; the avant jazz group, Oregon; and the Paul Winter Consort. This opened a whole new musical world and he began improvising 3-4 hours a night at clubs and lounges throughout the Boulder/Denver area sometimes 5 to 6 nights a week. After several years he tired of playing clubs and lounges and quit all his engagements and began renting out small churches and self-promoting small concerts through out Colorado. In 1983 Peter released his first album of solo piano compositions and improvisations entitled SPIRIT. His music was very well received and started charting in the Top 10 of National Contemporary Jazz Airplay charts and within a short couple of years Peter went from playing small churches to performing at 3,000 seat concert halls and at national jazz festivals at the age of 27. In 1985, Actor ROBERT REDFORD asked Peter to play at the then brand new Sundance Institute & Film Festival in Utah. Peter became the featured performer at many of Redford's “green” political fundraisers and events attended by many Hollywood A-list actors, directors and celebrities such as Alan Alda, Sidney Pollock, James Brooks, Dave Grusin, Laura Dern, Mathew Broderick and Ted Turner to name just a very few. In his concerts around Colorado, Peter started to share the stage with some of his favorite artists from his teen years such as DAN FOGELBERG and JOHN DENVER. John Denver asked Peter to coordinate the music for his ground breaking Choices for the Future Symposiums every summer in Aspen, Colorado and also invited him to perform at concerts in Japan and at World Forum events performing for dignitaries and celebrities such as Mikael Gorbachov and Shirley McLain. These collaborations with John Denver went on for almost 10 years until John's untimely death in 1997. Peter's music also caught the attention of New York City's legendary director and Circle Rep Theater co-founder, Marshall Mason and Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, Lanford Wilson. Peter's music became the score to their Tony-Award winning Broadway production of Burn This starring John Malkovich and Joan Allen which ran for over one year. As the newest member of their “A-team” in the following years Peter scored the music for 11 On- & Off-Broadway dramatic plays receiving widespread critical acclaim. As Peter's music spread across the world he scored more music for television and films and worked closely with his favorite environmental and humanitarian organizations such as Greenpeace, the National Wildlife Federation, the Nature Conservancy and ChildReach. In 1989 a close friend gave Peter a cassette called Earth Spirit by Native American flutist, R. CARLOS NAKAI. Peter was completely taken by the beauty and earthiness of the Native flute. Peter tracked down Nakai and asked him to collaborate with him on a recording. In the studio they felt as if they'd been playing together forever and their first album, Natives, was completed effortlessly in just a few hours. When recording with Nakai, Peter felt he was embarking on a little “personal” indulgence, temporarily diverging from his thriving mainstream contemporary jazz career. But to his surprise, while his recordings like Coming Home, Two Hearts, Gateway and Rooftops were charting in the Top 10 of National Jazz charts; the new recordings with R. Carlos Nakai quickly became immensely popular in the alternative market selling 100's of thousands of units each and generated a solid and much more personal fan base. Because of the deep satisfaction Peter felt in co-creating this beautiful music with Nakai, he quickly lost interest in the “jazz” genres and shifted his focus to music of a more intimate “healing” nature. Peter then recognized a need for music in support of the healing arts that could actually aid in deep personal healing and transformation. He recorded albums like Compassion and Essence that provided not only a loving supportive musical landscape but also an invitation to dive deeply and safely into one's essential emotional and spiritual nature. Many more CD's in support of the Healing Arts followed as did more recordings with R. Carlos Nakai, seven of which charted in the Top 20 of Billboard's New Age chart. Peter's love and appreciation for the earth and indigenous cultures inspired him to invite more indigenous musicians to record on various projects with him including Native American vocalists Joanne Shenandoah, Bill Miller and Rita Coolidge; Native American flutists Robert Mirabal, Joseph Firecrow, Mary Youngblood, Douglas Blue Feather, Kevin Locke; and South American flutists Jorge Alfano and Ara Tokatlian. Peter also composed two songs for the immensely popular Sacred Spirit recording which sold over 5 millions copies in Europe alone. Peter's music continued to grow and evolve and found it's way into the 2000 and 2004 World Olympics, the Kentucky Derby, the Wild World of Sports and countless television shows like Good Morning America, Entertainment Tonight, LifeStyles of the Rich & Famous and Bay Watch to name just few. He's scored the music for acclaimed television series like How The West Was Lost; Wild America; Civil War: The Untold Story; Eco-Challenge and Joseph Campbell's Mythos series and films like Sirius, The Legend of Secret Pass and 10 QUESTIONS FOR THE DALAI LAMA. He's given concerts throughout the USA, Europe, Japan and South Korea including performances at the Kennedy Center, Carnegie Hall, JFK Stadium in Washington DC, Red Rocks Amphitheater in Denver and the United Nations in NYC where he received the prestigious United Nations Environment Leadership Award. Possibly one of Peter's strongest attributes is his love for collaboration with other artists such as Singer/songwriter Kenny Loggins; Tibetan flutist, Nawang Khechog; Sting guitarist Dominic Miller; Sacred Chantress Snatam Kaur and of course his legendary collaboration with Native American flutist, R. Carlos Nakai. He's also enjoyed performing and recording with many other talented musicians such as virtuoso reedman Paul McCandless; Maverick Cellist David Darling; Peter Gabriel's legendary Bassist, Tony Levin; and renowned Brazilian cellist Jaques Morelenbaum. Peter has often been called prolific and is said to have the “gift of melody”. His love and enthusiasm for the creative process, self-exploration, the healing arts and the natural world continues to inspire a well-spring of composing and recording. In a thriving career spanning over 3 decades and going strong, Peter Kater has recorded over 60 albums resulting in the sales of millions of units; has scored the music for well over 100 television and film productions including 11 On- and Off-Broadway dramatic plays; ands the recipient of dozens of awards and honors including 14 Grammy® nominations and a Grammy Award win for his 2017 Dancing On Water recording and his 2019 Wings recording. But most importantly his music has uplifted, soothed, healed and inspired the lives of millions of people all around the world.  ABOUT THE HOST PAUL CARDALLhttp://www.paulcardall.comhttp://www.facebook.com/paulcardallmusichttp://www.youtube.com/cardallhttp://www.instagram.com/paulcardall LISTEN TO HIS MUSICAPPLE MUSIC - https://music.apple.com/us/artist/paul-cardall/4312819SPOTIFY - https://open.spotify.com/artist/7FQRbf8gbKw8KZQZAJWxH2AMAZON - Ask Alexa to play Peaceful Piano by Paul Cardall Paul Cardall is an artist who has given a new meaning to the phrase, a change of heart and how he used this radical change to take his music to an unexpected place.  Despite being born with a potentially life-threatening heart defect Paul Cardall has become a world recognized pianist.

Welcome to episode number 81 of the Wedding Songs Podcast. I am Matt Campbell and today I am going to be talking about songs you can play for a combined parent-child dance. Now, this could be the father-daughter / mother-son dance combined into one song. You may not want to have a lovey-dovey song that is particular to a father-daughter or for a mother-son. This is more generic and could be played for either dance. If you prefer to read the list, or listen to the list you can do so on our website MyWeddingSongs.com. Just search for combined dances. We will also have a link in our show notes as well. While you are on the website, make sure you sign up for our monthly newsletter, The Music Letter. We send it out on the last day of the month and it features all of the wedding songs of the prior month, also some hidden gems, and some songs you can play on date night as well. Make sure you check that out. I am not going to go thru every song on the list but I am going to go thru these in chronological order starting with the newest song first. Let's go ahead and get started with the first song titled “On Me” by Thomas Rhett, Kane Brown, and Ava Max. This was featured in the Scooby Doo soundtrack of 2020. It is really a great song that describes a relationship where you can rely on another person, particularly a parent. If you have never heard this song, the lyrics include…And if you want to, tell me what you gon' do, You could put it all, put it all on me, You can count on me, one, two, three. One of the most popular parent-child dance songs at weddings is “Forever Young”. A lot of artists have covered this and if you are a Folk fan, in 2019 Andrea von Kampen released this song. It is a great Folk song with the lyrics…Forever young, I want to be forever young. Next up, in 2018, Luke Bryan released “Most People Are Good” with the lyrics…I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks, I believe most people are good. Another more generic song is “Humble And Kind” by Tim McGraw in 2016, with the lyrics…When the work you put in is realized, Let yourself feel the pride but, Always stay humble and kind. In 2007 the lead singer of Matchbox 20, Rob Thomas, released “Little Wonders” for the Meet the Robinson's soundtrack. Lyrics include…Our lives are made, In these small hours, These little wonders. Also released in 2007 is a collaboration with Jim Brickman featuring Lady A on the song “Never Alone”. Lyrics include…So when hard times have found you and your fears surround you, Wrap my love around you, you're never alone. Another very popular parent-child dance song at weddings is “My Wish” by Rascal Flatts with the lyrics…My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to, Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small. If you are looking for a Christian song then in 2005 Mark Harris released “Find Your Wings” with the lyrics…I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams, And that faith gives you the courage, To dare to do great things. In 2003 Josh Groban released “You Raise Me Up” as a popular selection. In 2000 Lee Ann Womack released “I Hope You Dance” with the lyrics…Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance.

We're in the home stretch of the look back at highlights from the first 100 episodes of Twelve Songs, with this episode getting into interviews during the pandemic when COVID affected everybody's plans. Guitarist and producer Chas Justus from Lafayette, Louisiana talks about how COVID made his collection of Cajun French versions of Chrlstmas classics--Joyeux Noel, Bon Chrismeusse--possible.   I really appreciated getting romantic pianist and composer Jim Brickman on the show because someone who has 10 albums of Christmas music has a more nuanced take on it than those who have only dipped their toes in the water. We talked in 2020 about how his Christmas music relates to the music he makes the rest of the year.  Many of my guests are indie musicians, in part because their music frequently lines up best with my aesthetics and ethics, but it's also important to me that we hear Christmas music as something people make today in a variety of forms and not simply nostalgia from our parents or grandparents' generations. Excerpts of conversations with retro soul artist Kelly Finnigan (who made the modern classic A Joyful Sound), Christian vocal group leader Ernie Haase, Jamie Hilsden of the Christmas punk band The Myrrhderers, and Amy Carlson of pop band Office Romance all come from that place, though the conversations are very different.  I hope after hearing this show and the other retrospective shows in this series, you'll want to subscribe to Twelve Songs (if you haven't already), listen to back episodes, and tell your friends. I hope these looks back make it clear that conversations about Christmas music aren't necessarily about Christmas or to be set aside until that time of year. 

SCRIPTUREMatthew 1: 18-21MUSICVisiting by Will AckermanO Christmas Tree by Jim Brickman

Two-time Grammy Award winning producer and musician https://dennisscott.net/ (Dennis Scott) shares the experience of winning a Grammy on his first try, writing for https://www.sesamestreet.org/ (Sesame Street), working with artists like Kellie Pickler, Jim Brickman, Vanessa Williams, Ray Charles, Loretta Lynn, and others, discovering the music and message of Mr. Fred Rogers, and his new album, https://thankyoumisterrogers.com/pre-order-the-album/ (“Thank You, Mister Rogers: Music & Memories”). And be sure to stay tuned after the interview for a very special preview of the album.

His songs have been recorded by artists such as Ray Charles, Faith Hill, Alison Kraus, Sugarland, Crystal Gayle, Amy Grant, The Muppets, and many others. His music has been featured on shows such as Sesame Street, Guiding Light, Who's the Boss, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and  Magic School Bus.Scott began his entertainment career at the age of 7 as an actor on both Broadway and television commercials, those challenges--and successes—led him to the highly specialized field of children's entertainment.Dennis' newest release, Thank You, Mister Rogers – Music & Memories,  features songs written by Fred and performed by Rita Wilson, Lee Greenwood, Sandi Patty, Kellie Pickler, Vanessa Williams, Jim Brickman, Jaci Velasquez, Micky Dolenz Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr, The Cowsills, Tom Bergeron, and Jon Secada.The album, which recently received a Parents' Choice award, also includes an original song written by Dennis in honor of Fred Rogers called,  Thank You for Being You .Dennis also heads up the popular Nashville based Beatles tribute group, The WannaBeatles.

0:00:00 Teen ChallengesThe rise in social media use has led some teens to go to extreme lengths to gain popularity. A popular method of gaining followers is to do a trending social media challenges. These challenges range from silly tricks (like the water bottle challenge, where teens had to try and flip a water bottle and get it to land right-side up), to downright dangerous dares. In 2018 a viral challenge called the “Tide-Pod Challenge” encouraged teens to videotape themselves biting down on highly toxic Tide-Pods. In one year nearly 220 teens were hospitalized in one year because of this challenge. So what is it about these virtual challenges that appeal to teens? Why are they willing to forgo all common sense to get a few more followers? Here to discuss with us the addictive nature of teen challenges is child psychologist, Dr. Nicole Beurkens 0:17:25 Christmas Music Sampler Hitmaking songwriter and solo pianist Jim Brickman joins us for the first taste of the Lisa Show's Christmas Music Sampler.  0:41:00 Better Sleep in the WinterSadly, I have never popped up on a cold, dark morning thinking “Wow! I'm so glad I'm done sleeping for the next twelve or so hours!” The erratic lighting schedule, dry climate, and heating practices in the winter can make sleeping during this time of year challenging! With us today is Brent Fisher, one of the owners of the Alaska Sleep Clinic, to teach us how to maximize our hours of sleep.  0:53:17 Gaslighting It's frustrating when you remember something differently than someone else, especially if you've had your feelings hurt! And while situations like this are typically due to poor communication—there is also a chance that there might be gaslighting at play. Gaslighting is a manipulation tactic and the effects of it can be harmful. Here to tell us more about how we can recognize and recover from gaslighting is psychologist Dr. Stephanie Sarkis.  1:33:00 Ahab's AdventuresGeeg Wiles is the voice, caretaker, and keeper of chronicles for Ahab's Adventures. Captain Ahab is a three-foot-tall, forty-pound, bright yellow, wooden fisherman/wannabe pirate captain. Together, they are on a mission to motivate others by showing that if Captain Ahab can conquer his bucket list, then anyone can blast through their excuses and COMMANDEER LIFE!!! An average year for Geeg and his partner consists of such undertakings as jumping out of planes, rafting gnarly white water rapids, swimming at Black Canyon National Park, taking in the historic buildings of Stockholm, exploring the falls of the Upper Peninsula, or hitchhiking through Patagonia. 

Purpose, Passion, and Pajamas (0:00:00) “Pajama Project” is the highest rerun Oprah segment of all time, and it features a non-profit that gives pajamas and books to struggling children in the U.S. If you haven't seen it yet, it's sure to make you cry or feel more inspired.  Well today, we have the founder of the Pajama Program, Genevieve Piturro, on the show today. She joins us to discuss her life mission and give advice on how we can transform our own lives by finding more meaning and human connection. She's the author of the book Purpose, Passion and Pajamas being released tomorrow.    Petitions (0:17:04) One of the blessings of living in America is the first amendment, which gives us the right to freedom of speech and to petition the government. There are a lot of differing opinions swirling the United States, but you might not have to storm the white house or start a protest rally to get your opinion across, for centuries people have been making a difference by quietly just collecting some signatures. Petitioning is one of the oldest and maybe simplest ways citizens have advocated throughout history. But with petitioning moving online, is it still even effective? Here to tell us the real impact of those signatures is Harvard professor specializing in petition research, Daniel Carpenter.    Kitchen Organization (0:31:58) Our kitchens are the center of our homes. They're where we cook, meet, and eat with our family and friends. They're where we start and end our days and they help us to reconnect with our loved ones. But they can also get messy and cluttered and end up causing us more stress than they relieve. Here to teach us ways in which we can make our kitchen most efficient and discuss all things kitchen organization is professional organizer and founder and head educator of Organize With Faith, Faith Roberson.    NASA and Women in STEM (0:41:00) According to a 2018 study by the NGC Project, women make up only 28% of the STEM workforce in the United States. Despite producing some of the most innovative technology and research results that we've ever seen, the STEM world still has a long way to go in terms of diversity. So, what is it like working in a field in which you are severely under-represented? Joining us again on the show is Dr. Knicole Colon, a research astrophysicist at NASA and a woman in STEM. We're discussing her experiences working in the STEM field and how we can encourage other girls to pursue their career dreams as well.    BoardGameGeek (0:52:50) With limited options for entertainment these days, we've seen traditional board games make a comeback. They're a great way to get the whole family involved in something fun. Plus, they help pass the time. We're all familiar with games like Clue, Battleship, and Uno. But what are some other games we can play? To help us out we invited Eric Martin on the show today. He's part of the BoardGameGeek channel on YouTube.    Snail Mail (1:08:03) I love getting mail. Whether it's a package or a wedding invitation, as long as it isn't a bill, there's something exciting about getting something with your name on it. The mail we get today, however, looks different then the mail we would've received 10 or 20 years ago. Handwritten letters, especially, have almost completely died out. But here today is someone who has worked to revive that lost art: Ivan Cash, artist, filmmaker and founder of the Snail Mail My Email project.    World's Largest Frying Pan (1:23:18) We are speaking with Leon Sikes, a former Tourism Director from Rose Hill, North Carolina, home of the World's Largest Frying Pan where they can cook up to 365 chickens at a time in the 16 by 45 ft pan. We can't wait to learn about this record-breaking frying pan and hear how it was built and what it is used for.    Everyday Heroes (1:32:40) What makes someone a hero to you? Oftentimes when we hear the word hero, we think of masks and capes and incredible superpowers. But what about the unsung heroes that are on the frontlines in hospitals, grocery stores, and on the road delivering packages just to name a few? During these quarantine times, these people have gone above and beyond, putting their lives at risk to make our lives easier. Recently, Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Jim Brickman released a new song celebrating these heroes in our lives and the impact that their work has on us. We have him here with us on the phone to talk about his brand new song, “Everyday Heroes”.

Dr Michael Breus "The Sleep Doctor" https://thesleepdoctor.com/ is back for part 2 of his chat with Jim Brickman.  Cannabis is being used as effective treatments for more and more ills, but should poor sleep be one of them?
