Ivan Rubenstein-Gillis! Singer! Songwriter! Producer! Dear old friend! Delight! I've known Ivan for decades and I've always loved his music AND talking to him, so having him on my podcast to talk about his music AND MORE was perfect. Under the band name 500 Suns, he's got a new album "Hungry Man" coming out in July 2025! Stay tuned for that, and also stay tuned at the end of this podcast episode for a sneak peek of some music from that project! We have a great chat and you can have a great listen! PS This is only the first HALF of our chat. For the second half, subscribe via Apple Podcasts or merely click on over here to Patreon! Also, here's more about Ivan in Ivan's website's own words: "Ivan Rubenstein-Gillis is a singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist based out of New York. With deep roots in folk, rock, jazz, world music and modern poetics, Ivan brings a rare sense of craft, intellectual provocation and emotional expression to his work.​ Ivan grew up in a creative family and from an early age was exposed to great music, books and visual art from all around the world. He played piano as a kid and began putting lyrics and chord patterns together around the age of 10 ... Bought his first guitar in high school and later added mandolin, banjo, harmonica, bass and other instruments to the mix. Over the course of his eclectic career, Ivan has written hundreds of songs and instrumental pieces, produced and recorded albums across various genres, composed for dance and theater and performed with great musicians in many styles.​ The primary focus of Ivan's creative life has been his songwriting. To date, he has recorded 11 albums of original material as a solo artist, collaborating with extraordinary rhythm sections, instrumentalists and singers along the way. His songs have won grants and awards, have been performed by numerous artists and choirs, have been featured in a number of movies, documentaries and PSAs, and have become part of the American musical landscape for his many admirers.​​ Two of his songs were featured in a worldwide viral video produced for the United Nations Environmental Program regarding the evils of single-use plastics. Outside of his own material, Ivan enjoyed a very successful collaboration with legendary trombonist Roswell Rudd over the last decade of his life. Ivan played with Rudd's dynamic MaliCool band in 2007 and produced Feeling Good (a tribute to Nina Simone) - the lead track off of Rudd's 2011 album The Incredible Honk.  In 2013-2014, Ivan produced Trombone For Lovers, an epic collection of American standards which included the house band of John Medeski, Aaron Comess and Richard Hammond, plus guest appearances from Bob Dorough, Faye Victor, Gary Lucas, Michael Doucet, Steven Bernstein, The NYC Labor Choir and other luminaries. TFL received a four star review in Downbeat and generated raves around the world. Roswell performed with Ivan and his band on numerous occasions and guested on several of Ivan's albums, including in the guise of a braying elephant on dogz and katz, a choice cut from Ivan's 2016 album The Lion. Ivan and Roswell continued to work together on new compositions and arrangements right up until Roswell died in December of 2017.​ Ivan produced and played multiple instruments on "Songs From Home" - a well-received  'pandemic EP' with fellow Rudd collaborator (and wonderful singer ) Heather Masse, featuring some of their favorite classics, reimagined for quarantine. Ivan's latest project - 500 Suns - is a collaboration with the great rhythm section of Craig Santiago and Scott Petito - an uplifting soulful band based out of the Hudson Valley featuring Shawn Dawn, Kendra McKinley and Leslie Ritter on vocals. ​Ivan's deep love for many different types of music has allowed him to play around the margins of numerous genres, and has led to longstanding musical relationships with Meyer Horn (drums), Adam Small (bass), Craig Santiago (drums), Scott Petito (bass), Aaron Comess (drums), Richard Hammond (bass), Heather Masse (voice), Cat Martino (voice), Leah Siegel (voice), Lexy Casano (cabaret artist), Clarence Ferrari (flame throwing fiddler), Arne Wendt (organist), Rod Sherwood (producer), David Grausman (piano) and David Brahinsky (NJ-based folksinger), among many others. Ivan has also worked extensively as a music educator, concert producer and "musical activist" - utilizing his talent and experience in the service of providing musical opportunities to underserved populations. Ivan has played at countless benefit concerts, fundraisers and community events and always appreciates the opportunity to play music in the service of a worthy cause.  Along with the music, Ivan writes satire, short stories, poems and the occasional expository essay. He also likes to draw funny sketches." Thanks and love, all!

Welcome back to this special pair of episodes celebrating hitting the 100 mark of the Musicality Podcast! If you haven't already heard Episode 100 then make sure you go back and listen to it too because both that one and this one are jam-packed with incredible insights from over two-dozen expert guests, answering the question: “What’s one thing you’ve learned that could help musicians to tap into their inner musicality?” In the last episode we heard from 11 experts whose answers to this question were varied and fascinating. There were some common themes, some of which you'll hear coming up again in this episode, but each guest also brought their own unique perspective and insight to the question. We’ll talk a little more at the end of this episode about those recurring themes and how we can learn more from them. We said last time that we’d tried to group the experts to make for two great episodes to listen to, but apart from that there's no meaning to the order - so the line-up for this episode is just as impressive as the first one. In this episode you'll be hearing: • Bill Hilton, author of "How to Really Play the Piano" talking about the level of instrument technique required to sound truly musical. • Book author, podcaster, song-writer and musician David Andrew Wiebe of MusicEntrepreneurHQ.com revealing three things that can help you sound more like a pro. • Innovator in school music education Casey von Neumann of Eclectic Music and CaseyMcCann.com sharing the tip that let her sound just as musical as her incredibly accomplished teacher. • Leading teacher-of-teachers Sara Campbell of SarasMusicStudio, and our Resident Pro for piano here at Musical U, explaining why young children are often more in touch with their inner musicality and what we can learn from that. • Practice expert Chris Owenby from PracticeHabits.co talking about what it takes to become an accomplished musician like the greats we admire. • Rising star singer-songwriter Kendra McKinley pointing out the thing you're probably forgetting to listen to which could make you sound more musical. • Actress, singer, writer and cabaret expert Fiona-Jane Weston discussing the relationship between technique and artistry, and how to unlock the potential in a piece of music. • Composer and guitar educator David Wallimann on escaping the constraints your instrument might be placing on you. • Author of the must-have handbook for aspiring musicians, "The Musician's Way", Gerald Klickstein, on one activity that will transform your musicality and why it's more vital for music than other artforms. • Music technology expert Katie Wardrobe on one non-tech thing she does to develop her musical understanding. • World-leading vocal expert and sight-reading pro Jeremy Fisher on how to overcome tricky spots and learn music faster. • Creative music teaching expert Leila Viss on the mindset shift required to uncover your own creative voice. • Music theory innovator Scott Sharp on the special way of thinking about keys and chords that can let you understand what's going on in the music you hear and play. • And Vincent James, the man behind some of the most inspiring events and books in the world of music tops off our episode with some counter-intuitive advice for connecting musically with your audience. Are you excited? We’ve already heard all these and we’re excited all over again just talking through them!

Today we're joined by Kendra McKinley, a San Francisco singer-songwriter who we interviewed on our website last year after a cover song she recorded made us sit up and pay attention. Her music has been described as having a "striking musicality" and we think that's a great way of putting it, so we were delighted to have the opportunity to sit down with her and learn more about where that musicality came from and how she goes about writing and recording her songs. Kendra is a perfect example of a musician that will be called "talented" and whose music will make you think she has gifts that make it all come easily. But as you'll hear in this interview, those abilities have come through dedication and very thoughtful pursuit of music-making, and the opportunities and projects she's enjoyed haven't been dropped in her lap by luck or fate, she's been out there putting in the time and efforts and making it happen.   In this conversation we talk about:   • Kendra's musical upbringing and the one pivotal experience that made it suddenly clear that she wanted to be a musical performer as a career • The process of recording her first album, Treat, and why it turned out to be such a wonderfully varied "buffet" of songs • Her recent artist residency in Big Sur, an incredible and unique experience that produced a new EP and helped inform who she's becoming as a musician   Kendra's album, Treat, really lives up to its name, as being a treat for your ears to enjoy, and this conversation was no different. It was fascinating to get to speak with Kendra and understand where this music has come from and what she has coming up next, so we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did.   Subscribe For Future Episodes!
