The guys pay tribute to Little Richard before welcoming Minnesota native Caitlyn Smith, who found her way to Nashville as a songwriter before signing with Monument Records and earning a nod as one of Rolling Stone Magazine’s “10 New Artists You Need to Know.” Her second album, Supernova, was recently released to critical acclaim. Caitlyn’s list of hit songs that have been recorded by other artists includes “Wasting All These Tears,” a Top 5 single for Cassadee Pope, “You Can’t Make Old Friends” by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, and “Like I’m Gonna Lose You,” a multi-platinum hit for Meghan Trainor featuring John Legend. Smith, along with co-writers Kate York and Mary Steenburgen, won a Critics’ Choice Award for the song “Glasgow (No Place Like Home)” from the film Wild Rose. Other artists who’ve recorded Caitlyn’s songs include Lori McKenna, Lucy Hale, Jason Aldean, Garth Brooks, Rascal Flatts, Laura Bell Bundy, Chris Isaak, Lindsay Ell, Lady Antebellum, and Trisha Yearwood. 

SZLACHETKA (pronounced SLA-HET-KA) draws your gaze back to a simpler time when mu-sic was less about stylized production and more about its experiential nature. His songwriting finds inspiration in the threads that connect us, weaving a tapestry of familiar moments that pay homage to the past while leaning into a future that promises both wonder and grace. Now based in Nashville, Rolling Stone hailed SZLACHETKA as one of the “10 New Artists You Need to Know”. He'll be performing songs from his sophomore album 'Heart of my Hometown'. JOSLYN & THE SWEET COMPRESSION deliver a hook-filled mix of funk and R&B-flavored pop. Based out of Lexington, Kentucky, the ensemble is lead by powerhouse vocalist Joslyn Hampton and features a dynamic mix of veterans and young talent to create their unique high energy grooves. Her debut set of original material will be released in a series of singles as opposed to on an album. WoodSongs Kids: The Wallace Sisters are from Lexington, Kentucky and love to sing.

Alezzandra uses her music, her body, her visual talent, and her mind to deliver messages that are sophisticated, yet simple and powerful. Born and raised in Sweden with a Serbian background and now living in LA, Alezzandra is an international recording artist and a producer who  creates a  female empowerment narrative through razor sharp lyrics, hypnotic rhythms, poetry,  and provocative eroticism.   And she delivers it all with a voice that knows few equals.   Alezzandra’s music unfurls her deepest secrets and darkest fantasies, peeling painful, sensual layers away in her full video EP, The Black Rose. ? Her songs B ad Woman is a masterpiece of provocative melody and lyrics.  She is truly a Bad Girl in Heaven and A Good Girl in Hell.  Which is why she won the LA Music Critic Award for early 2018 for Best Ep, Female. Raised and rooted in Corpus Christi, Texas, producer, DJ, and nu-cumbia pioneer El Dusty translates the Southern Texas border experience into new barrio anthems. His self-taught approach, drawing from a crate digging and a turntablist tradition links Latin classics with the new generation of bass-heavy soundsystem and hip-hop cultures. Critical acclaim has hailed El Dusty as Rolling Stone’s 10 New Artists You Need to Know and a  Grammy nomination came last year.  He is in demand at venues across the country for live gigs and collaborative projects with new wave Latin artists like Ana Ba´rbara, Toy Selectah, Erick Rinco´n of 3BallMTY, MLKMN, DJ Buddha, and more.  Without a doubt, El Dusty is one of the artists who will shape the future of music.

On today's show, with trumpeter and composer Jaimie Branch. I'd seen Jaimie's name in the credits of releases by bassist Jason Ajemian, in the large band of Keefe Jackson, with cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm and saxophonist Jarrett Gilmore but she didn't really capture my attention until her stunning debut with her band Fly or Die arrived on the International Anthem label in early 2017. This rock-solid quartet featuring former Fun 2 Know guest Tomeka Reid on cello, newly-minted Philadelphian Chad Taylor on drums and Jason Ajemian on bass provide a spacious landscape for the propulsive trumpet and compositions of Ms Branch, over a beautifully-paced record that pulls you through it like a great record should. Branch has collected plenty of accolades for the record, including winning Top Debut in the NPR 2017 Jazz Poll (she topped my ballot as well) Jaimie was listed in the June 2017 Rolling Stone as “10 New Artists You Need to Know” and the Village Voice called Branch “fearless” and described her album as “eerily beautiful.” Jaimie and her band Fly or Die rolled into town in late January, sharing a bill at The Rotunda on the University of Pennsylvania campus with improvisational group Sirius Juju. I'd hoped to get there early and interview Jaimie backstage but I've worked with enough band to know that traveling from town-to-town with five or six people is an inexact science so instead of having an hour to unwind into conversation we had about twenty minutes before the band downstairs began to dominate the scene with a wonderful set of music. This makes for a nice, concise episode of Fun 2 Know, where we enjoy a few cuts from Jaimie's “Fly or Die” debut, a snippet from her recordings with the trio Princess Princess, an previously undistributed date she was selling at the show as vinyl in a plain paper sleeve, plus hear Jaimie talk about how ten years of gigging has made her an “overnight sensation.”

Miles Mosley's solo album Uprising has been turning heads across the globe since its release in early 2017.  "Abraham” was named one of NPR’s ‘Top 100 songs of 2016’, and Rolling Stone named him one of the 'Top 10 New Artists You Need to Know'. The list of artists with which Miles has recorded, toured and collaborated with is remarkable, including Christina Aguilera, Jason Mraz, Chris Cornell, Lauryn Hill, and Mos Def.  Miles played for several tracks on Kendrick Lamar's Grammy-winning album 'To Pimp A Butterfly', and he is a co-founder of the West Coast Get Down. We dig into all kinds of topics: career diversification studying with Ray Brown and John Clayton working through the George Vance books blocking out a solid month to record with his colleagues the evolution of and reasons for the effects that Miles uses how Miles got into composing for films ...and much more!  I had a great time chatting with Miles for the podcast, and I know you'll enjoy listening!

Nashville native Jaren Johnston co-founded the rock band American Bang which released one album for Warner Bros. He went on to form the Cadillac Three, a Southern rock-infused trio that was named one of the “10 New Artists You Need to Know” by Rolling Stone Country in 2014. While finding success with his own self-described “country fuzz” sound, Johnston forged a second career as a behind-the-scenes songwriter for top country artists. Since 2012, he has seen more than a half dozen of his songs hit the country Top 10, four of which have climbed to the #1 position. He has co-written the songs “You Gonna Fly” and “Raise ‘Em Up” for Keith Urban, “Southern Girl” and “Meanwhile Back at "Mama’s” for Tim McGraw, “Days of Gold” and “Beachin’” for Jake Owen, “Sunshine and Whiskey” for Frankie Ballard, “Don’t It” for Billy Currington, and “The South,” a Top 40 hit for his own band, which featured guest appearances by Florida Georgia Line, Dierks Bentley, and Mike Eli. Additionally, his songs have been recorded by Sara Evans, Lonestar, Danielle Bradbery, Miranda Lambert, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Terri Clark, Meatloaf, Loverboy, Lynyrd Skynrd, and more. His music has been nominated for two Grammy awards and two Academy of Country Music awards, and it seems he’s just getting started.
