Podcasts about live performances

Maja Nielsen hat einen ungewöhnlichen Werdegang: Vom Theater über den Hörfunk zum Jugendbuch. In dieser Folge sprechen Dr. Stefan und Mr. Ralf mit der Autorin über ihre Arbeit an der Schnittstelle von Sachbuch, Literatur und Live-Performance.

A live show can be thrilling for one person and terrifying for another, especially when the room offers only vague warnings like “flashing lights.” We sit down with composer, writer, and inventor Helen Epega (The Venus Bushfires) to unpack how synesthesia shapes her world, why it can feel magical and overwhelming at the same time, and how that lived experience becomes a blueprint for better accessibility in the arts.We trace Helen's journey from Nigeria to London and into opera, where she creates Song Queen, a pidgin English opera that pushes back on who gets cultural legitimacy on elite stages. She shares the surprising mix of welcome, skepticism, and long-term influence that comes with expanding tradition rather than rejecting it. From there we get into her methodology, “Access as Creative Core™,” where accessibility is built into the creative architecture from the first draft, not bolted on at the end.That philosophy leads to HiQuu®, her patent-pending accessibility technology platform for live performance accessibility and digital environments. HiQuu aims to translate a venue's environment into sensory cues and options like captioning or visual prompts so neurodiverse, blind, and D/deaf audience members can attend together, not in segregated sessions. We also dig into intellectual property, patents, and creator rights in the age of generative AI, including why training on creative work without consent or payment damages the pipeline and why creator-led innovation must guide policy.If you care about inclusive design, assistive tech, copyright, patents, opera, or the future of the creative industry, this conversation offers concrete examples and a bigger vision for belonging.

This week we're taking Ableton Live out of the studio and onto the stage.Ableton can be a sampler, sequencer, mixer, effects rack, instrument, looper and the brains behind an entire live setup. But having all those possibilities doesn't necessarily make for a good performance.We're digging into how Ableton can actually be used live, from Session View and clip launching to controllers, effects, routing, improvisation and the less glamorous question of reliability.How much should be prepared? How much should be improvised? What are we actually performing when the computer is doing so much of the work?Thanks to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerCheck out Survey Channel's New Release Here:https://surveychannel.bandcamp.com/album/macrozonesJoin the conversation:

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with singer-songwriter David Mead for a wide-ranging conversation about singing, record-making, fatherhood, and the changing place of music in our culture.David takes me back to his earliest experiences as a singer, from hearing his mother sing around the house to studying with vocal teacher Norris Brandstrom. Those lessons began to make sense when David heard Jeff Buckley and discovered how classical vocal technique could open the door to a more adventurous, expressive way of singing.We also get inside the making of January San Fernando. David explains how working with musicians such as Larry Goldings and Val McCallum helped him relinquish some creative control, trust the instincts of the people in the room, and recognize the energy that can live in an early take.  He also shares news of another record made with the same core group of musicians.Some of the most meaningful parts of our conversation are about family. David reflects on how becoming a husband and father changed his relationship with ambition, identity, mortality, and creative work. We close by discussing his beautiful version of Michael Jackson's “Human Nature,” the childhood memory behind it, and how a low-pressure recording project became the album Indiana.Key TakeawaysDavid is grateful that he learned to sing, play guitar, and write songs before music became inseparable from today's constant flow of digital content.Vocal teacher Norris Brandstrom helped him understand that singing and speaking are extensions of the same natural process.Hearing Jeff Buckley gave David a contemporary context for the classical vocal technique he had previously resisted.While making January San Fernando, David deliberately gave musicians such as Larry Goldings and Val McCallum room to follow their own instincts.He prefers the energy and discovery of early studio takes, especially when working with musicians who have not spent too much time studying the songs.Fatherhood helped David separate his love of music from the pressure to define himself through a recording career.His version of “Human Nature” grew from a powerful childhood memory and the creative freedom surrounding the making of Indiana.Music from the EpisodeNashville - David MeadBedtime Story - David MeadIndiana - David MeadHuman Nature - David MeadAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast about music, creativity, and the people who devote their lives to making sound.

MainStage is more than an Apple app with a familiar logo, and Chris & Jody are digging into why it can be a serious tool for live performance and studio work. This week on Inside the Recording Studio, Chris & Jody get their hands dirty with MainStage and look at what makes it such a useful sidekick for musicians. Whether you are building a touring rig or working from a bedroom setup, MainStage has a place that might be bigger than you think. The conversation starts with what MainStage is best at. Rather than treating it like another piece of software that promises to do everything, Chris & Jody focus on where it actually makes sense. They talk about the instruments that can benefit from it, how it fits into a live-performance setup, and why musicians using it on stage need to think about reliability before the show starts. Because a crash in the middle of a solo is not exactly the kind of performance anyone wants to be remembered for. That means looking beyond the fun stuff and thinking about how to avoid a MainStage crash when you are actually performing. A powerful setup does not mean much if it falls apart when you need it most. Chris & Jody break down the practical side of using MainStage so you can approach your setup with fewer surprises. But MainStage is not limited to the stage. One of the more interesting parts of the discussion is how MainStage can sneak into studio workflows. That makes this episode useful even if touring is nowhere on your current calendar. Chris & Jody explore the hidden features in studio gear that can make familiar tools useful in ways you might not expect. It is part live-performance tool, part studio sidekick, and part reminder that sometimes the software already sitting in front of you can do more than you realized. Along the way, expect the usual Chris & Jody approach: practical discussion, performance tricks, plugin talk, and enough skepticism to keep this from becoming a MainStage sales pitch. They are interested in what the software can actually do for musicians, not simply checking boxes on a feature list. And once the MainStage geekery is complete, Chris & Jody wrap things up with their signature Friday Finds. If you have been looking for MainStage tips, ways to improve a live performance setup, or ideas for bringing MainStage into your studio workflow, this episode gives you plenty to explore. Listen now, then subscribe to Inside the Recording Studio for more practical recording, plugin, and performance discussions from Chris & Jody.   #MainStage #AppleMainStage #MainStageTips #LivePerformanceSetup #StudioWorkflow #StudioGear #PerformanceRig #RecordingSetupTips

The Lads and Luke discuss a wide variety of topics of the music and performance industry, from what it meant to be a producer such as with Rick Rubin, the logistics of Live Performances and life on the road, and what it means to truly be an artist.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with singer-songwriter Stephanie Rabus for a conversation about resilience, perseverance, and what it really looks like to build a music career one performance at a time.Stephanie shares how she balances life between Nashville's Broadway scene and weekends performing with her longtime cover band, Borderline, in the St. Louis area. We talk about the unique challenges of performing for different audiences, reading a room, developing as a live vocalist, and how every show becomes another opportunity to grow.Our conversation also explores Stephanie's remarkable personal story. From open-heart surgery as a child to another heart procedure earlier this year, music has been a constant source of purpose and healing throughout her life. We discuss how those experiences shaped songs like “I Told Me So,” and why honest storytelling has become the foundation of everything she writes.Along the way, we dive into Nashville, songwriting, harmony singing, touring as a backup vocalist for Georgette Jones, learning from country music's rich traditions, and why Stephanie continues to pursue her career entirely on her own terms. It's an inspiring conversation about resilience, artistry, and believing that your best work may still be ahead of you.Key TakeawaysStephanie balances a demanding schedule between performing regularly on Nashville's Broadway and traveling to St. Louis for weekend shows with Borderline.Music became both an emotional refuge and a source of confidence after childhood health challenges, including open-heart surgery.Her recent single “I Told Me So” reflects the importance of perseverance and trusting yourself through life's setbacks.Stephanie discusses lessons learned from an early record deal and why independent artists now have more opportunities than ever.Touring as a harmony singer for Georgette Jones deepened her appreciation for vocal phrasing and supporting another artist's musical identity.Live performance continues to shape her artistry as she adapts every show to the audience in front of her.New music is already on the horizon, including several upcoming singles and a possible Christmas project.Music from the EpisodePayback's a Beach - Stephanie RabusAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a long-form interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams featuring thoughtful conversations with musicians, songwriters, producers, and artists about creativity, craft, collaboration, and the stories behind the music.

In this final interview from Newport Folk Festival, I sat down with the awesome duo of Casey Gomez Walker and Spencer Tweedy, whose project, Case Oats, is one of my favorite alt-country Chicago bands.Casey and Spencer are a uniquely compelling duo — complementing each other's talents — both personally and professionally. Case Oats' most recent album, the critically acclaimed Last Missouri Exit, combines Casey's keen literary background with Spencer's knowledge of the craft of songwriting to create a truly groundbreaking album.Spencer, who of course comes from musical family and as he calls it, “a culture of belief,” talks to me about how his own belief in Casey's ability and strengths pushed them further to even greater heights and allowed them to exceed their goals. This is an inspiring and informative interview with two super intriguing artists who embody a self-belief and fearlessness.=======================================00:00 - Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg03:40 - Introduction to Casey Oats and their origins in Chicago03:51 - Casey's creative writing background impacts his songwriting04:21 - Transition from writing stories to making an album04:49 - How meeting Spencer encouraged continued music creation05:34 - The culture of belief in making art and its normalization06:30 - Spencer's journey from unfamiliarity to making records07:12 - Writing songs from short stories and focusing on core truths08:05 - Spencer's experience of working under pressure and saying yes09:36 - The quick turnaround for their album and embracing fearlessness10:23 - The humility and bravery involved in creative risks11:13 - The story behind "Last Missouri Exit" as a symbolic milestone11:57 - Touring in Europe and favorite venues and cities12:41 - Supporting and collaborating with other Chicago artists13:40 - Family influences, especially their parents' roles in music and industry14:57 - The importance of craft, dedication, and perseverance in songwriting16:19 - The power of expression and meaningful engagement in music17:18 - The significance of "Last Missouri Exit" as a record and personal symbol18:26 - The idea of writing a novel titled "Last Missouri Exit"20:14 - How Casey and Spencer met and began collaborating21:27 - Their early gigs at G Man and the evolution of their band22:25 - Touring highlights in Norway, Madrid, and the UK22:42 - The experience of sold-out shows and the feeling of achievement24:20 - The Chicago music scene's supportive nature and emerging youth talent25:11 - The importance of community, collaboration, and nurturing future generations26:51 - Their advice on creativity, community, and staying true to oneself27:30 - Episode Wrap-Up with Host Josh Rosenberg=======================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with Barns Courtney for a wide-ranging conversation about performance, songwriting, musicianship, ambition, and the strange balance between control and chaos.Barns talks about the solo acoustic shows he has been playing and how stripping away the band has changed his relationship with an audience.  Without a fixed stage plan, every night becomes more unpredictable, more conversational, and more dependent on what is happening in the room. We discuss why great performances need an element of risk and how those shows have reminded him not to let ambition overshadow gratitude.We also talk about his ongoing work as a singer and the discipline required to maintain an instrument that is constantly changing. Barns reflects on vocal lessons, life on the road, the financial realities of touring, and the challenge of building a sustainable career without losing the joy that made him want to perform in the first place.  Barns also takes us inside the making of his new album with producer and multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Wilson. He describes being challenged to improve as a musician, learning when to loosen his grip on an arrangement, and discovering how a fresh perspective can reveal what a song actually needs.Our conversation moves through meditation, neurodivergence, social media, aging, creative discipline, and the story behind “Glitter & Gold,” which was recorded with one microphone, an out-of-tune piano, filing cabinets, and whatever sounds were available in the room. Throughout it all, Barns returns to one idea: the real purpose of performing is not to prove how impressive you are, but to connect with people and bring them some measure of joy.Key TakeawaysBarns continues to take vocal lessons and views singing as an instrument that must be constantly relearned as the body changes.His acoustic shows have created more space for improvisation, audience interaction, humor, and genuine unpredictability.He believes a performance can become too controlled, and that risk is often necessary for a show to feel transcendent.Working with Jonathan Wilson challenged Barns to become more proficient as an instrumentalist and more open to outside ideas.Barns now approaches songwriting with greater discipline, comparing the process to fishing: showing up regularly without knowing what will surface.The live album captured the sound of a band that had developed trust, instinct, and a shared musical language through touring together.Barns has come to see performance less as a display of ambition and more as an opportunity to connect with people and bring them joy.Music from the EpisodeFun Never Ends - Barns Courtney99 - Barns CourtneyGlitter & Gold - Barns CourtneyAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a music interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams.

I was privileged once again to attend Newport Folk Festival and even more grateful to sit down with Madi Diaz — four years after her first Roadcase guest spot in 2022. Madi is a striking artist with a unique flair for vulnerability and for putting her authentic self — and her feelings — on display in her songwriting. She is also a two-time Grammy nominee for her album Weird Faith, and was a member of Harry Styles' touring band in 2023.Madi talks to me about the importance of embracing her feelings, especially in navigating relationships, and she discusses with me how her knack for finding joy in uncertainty and the unknown helps shape not only her artistry but also her outlook on life. Her upcoming deluxe release — the UN-unplugged version — of her album Fatal Optimist is coming out on September 4, and it further underscores the hope embedded in her attitude of “defiant optimism.”  Heads up for more interviews from Newport Folk Festival, coming up this week and next!!=======================================Chapters:00:00 - Episode intro with Host Josh Rosenberg04:05 - Maddie Diaz's journey and upcoming album Fatal Optimist06:23 - How songwriting reflects personal and universal emotions08:53 - The meaning behind Fatal Optimist as laughing in the face of the current world10:26 - Strategies for managing intense feelings through acceptance and presence12:50 - Decision-making guided by gut instinct and living with no wrong choices14:55 - The creative process behind her innovative music videos and art installations18:28 - Navigating relationships and personal growth during tour adventures20:05 - The transformative experience of performing for Harry Styles and large audiences23:51 - Reflections on touring at Wembley and the impact on her music and mindset27:19 - Her focus on new music, upcoming solo shows, and ongoing projects29:23 - Episode Wrap-up with Host Josh Rosenberg=======================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

2026 marks our 5th annual Musikfest Exordium where we preview “must see” bands, weather predictions, enjoy some live music, and kick things off with “the first part”.In this segment, we "get to the music" and hear phenomenal live performances from two bands who'll be performing during this year's Fest: Atlassian and Bren.Atlassian BioLehigh Valley local favorites Atlassian formed in the winter of 2015, when Nickolas Kossup and Anthony Belcaro were playing early acoustic versions of their songs. It was then in the spring of 2016 that a fuller version of the band was formed with Keyboardist Brad Murray. The band began to really blossom with the addition of their long-time musical confidant and lead guitarist Aaron Michael Brown of the band Saint Slumber.  A fuller sound and visual aesthetic were needed and was finally resurrected when they asked art director and bassist Dave Meyers to help make their vision come alive. Together Atlassian has been passionately working to create visually striking content, a memorable live show with healthy amounts of improvisation that not only solidifies the band's professional skills but proves they are worthy of the praise they get.Bren BioBren is a Philadelphia-based artist who weaves together elements of punk, indie-folk, alternative, and post-grunge into a musical tapestry that is all her own. Through her sonically cathartic songs, she shares authentic stories of human experience that resonate at a deep emotional level with her audiences. Her powerful yet nuanced vocal performance takes listeners on a journey from the transcendent and tender to the fierce and feral. And the music behind her is equally dynamic, ranging from massive “wall of sound” guitars and blasting beats to haunting, ethereal acoustic parts and subtle percussion.After multiple moves in her young adult life, Bren permanently relocated to Philadelphia and recorded her 2023 debut EP “Too Late for Flowers.” Bren lives and breathes the Philly indie scene, performing at numerous venues and sharing bills with both local and national artists. All of these experiences are being poured into her new music, and will culminate in her next record out in 2027. Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band".  If you tuned in today because you already knew this musician - thank you very much!  We hope that you enjoyed it and would consider following us and subscribing so we can bring you your #nextfavband in the future.  And check out nextfavband.com for our entire catalog of interviews!If you have a recommendation on who you think OUR next favorite band should be, hit us up on social media (@nextfavband everywhere) or send us an email at nextfavband@stereophiliastudio.com.Thank you to Carver Commodore, argonaut&wasp, and Blair Crimmins for allowing us to use their music in the show open and close.  It makes everything sound so much better!Let's catch a live show together soon!#nextfavband #livemusic #music #musicinterview #musician  #singer  #guitar  #song  #newmusic  #explorepage  #instamusic #bestmusic #musicismylife #musicindustry #musiclife #songwriter #musiclover #musicfestival

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with country singer and songwriter Makenzie Phipps for a conversation about small-town roots, faith, songwriting, performance, and the experience of stepping onto one of music's biggest television stages.Makenzie grew up in Bluefield, Virginia, near the West Virginia line, and began singing in church when she was four years old. We talk about the support she still receives from her hometown, the transition from a small community to Nashville, and how years of performing taught her that singing the notes is only one part of connecting with an audience.We also discuss the growth she has experienced as a songwriter. Makenzie explains how writing her own material changed the way she listens to lyrics and approaches storytelling, and why she wants listeners to believe and feel the story behind every song she sings.A major part of our conversation focuses on her experience on The Voice. Makenzie shares the pressure of waiting for her blind audition, learning that only one place remained, and stepping onto the stage after nearly convincing herself she would not get the opportunity. Snoop Dogg turned his chair at the final moment, making Makenzie the last singer chosen for a team that season.Makenzie also tells the story behind “Devil Ain't in Hell,” her duet with fellow The Voice contestant Aubrey Nicole. The two wrote the song late one night while working on the show in California, later recording it with producer Grady Saxman at Saxman Studios. What began as an unplanned hotel-room co-write became a lasting musical connection and a new chapter in Makenzie's career.Key TakeawaysGrowing up in Bluefield, Virginia, taught Makenzie to appreciate community, support, and the opportunities that come with pursuing music.Music from the EpisodeDevil Ain't in Hell - Makenzie PhippsAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a music interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams.
