We talk about the intention and focus of Backline in supporting artists and music professionals through all steps of the mental health and wellness journey. Also touched on is how covid has impacted and increased the needs for the music community and how Backline is helping to meet those needs, as well as their focus on being more inclusive and socially conscious to all music industry professionals. Lastly, listeners can learn how funding has shifted since covid and how you can support the artists you love in caring for themselves.

Native Memphian, Lawrence "Boo" Mitchell, was surrounded by music growing up in South Memphis. Boo is the son of legendary Hi Records and Al Green producer, Willie Mitchell. After graduating from Christian Brothers High School, he formed a rap group called the M-Team in 1988. Years later he worked as manager and talent coordinator for his family's club, "Willie Mitchell's Rhythm and Blues Club" located on Memphis's historic Beale street. As you can imagine, countless celebrities frequented the club during this time and Boo shares quite a few stories from this era in his life. We also discuss the dynamic of Memphis Music and how many artists are seeking that "vintage recording sound" from Royal Studios. Being a Grammy Award winning - engineer, producer, and composer, Boo walks me through the night he picked up the Grammy for "Record of the Year" for his work on the Mark Ronson/Bruno Mars hit "Uptown Funk." We also talk about the upcoming Mempho Music Festival which kicks off October 19th at Shelby Farms.
