Welcome to another episode of The Nashville Dads! This week we have on musician and author Phil Madeira. We talk about lessons from co-parenting and his parents, setting boundaries, and our belief in God. We hope you enjoyFollow us on Twitter @nashvilledads and on Facebook and Instagram @thenashvilledads. Look for new episodes of The Nashville Dads podcast every other Monday.

Hymns are often sentimentalized in the American church, cast aside as merely retired songs with dated language, bearing no real appeal or relevance. But of course it may be that our old hymnals have some crucial things to say to us in our current cultural moment. This is the challenge I posed to Odessa Settles, Phil Madeira, and Leslie Jordan: find and perform some old hymns which might be both indicting and encouraging to the modern church, and to the world at large. Beautiful conversation and moving performances, taped at Nashville's Sound Emporium. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Phil Madeira, who can regularly be found backing up amazing artists like Emmylou Harris, is out with his latest project, "BLISS." This collection of love songs may seem like a bit of a change-up by this famously acerbic artist - especially after last year's edgy "Hornet's Nest," so we caught up with him to talk about this project and the concept of "love songs" in general. Why do we all keep going back to art - even silly love songs - when it comes time to walk through our most important experiences?

This episode features an extended interview with renowned musician and songwriter Phil Madeira. Phil comes on to talk about how his band Red Dirt Boys (backup band for Emmylou Harris) is doing a crowdfunding campaign for two new albums. But he also tells us about his storied career in the music business, how he found himself being the band leader for Rick Elias' tribute concert, and why he liked Rich Mullins but not his music. Please check out Phil's website for more of his story and where to purchase his music. This episode also features a longer version of Jimmy Abegg and Ben Pearson's reflections about Rick Elias which was in our previous episode.

April 2, 2021 is the two year anniversary of the death of Rick Elias. This episode is a tribute to his life and work and features a long list of people sharing their stories about all the beautiful, conflicted moments they got to share with him over the years, including: Jimmy Abegg, Aaron Smith, Mark Robertson, Phil Madeira, Ben Pearson, Phil Keaggy, Margaret Becker, Randy Stonehill, Bryan Duncan, Carolyn Arends, Mitch McVicker, Sammy Horner, Chris Hauser, and many others.

In Part 2 of this special episode we hear from our late friend, mentor, and guide, Rich Mullins via a long-lost interview conducted at the old True Tunes record store in Wheaton Illinois in 1995. We also check in with Mitch McVicker, Phil Madeira, and Derek Webb, and we listen to Andrew Peterson on the Jukebox. Rich’s Ragamuffin bandmates Jimmy Abegg, Aaron Smith, and Mark Robertson come back to close things out as well. It’s our longest and fullest episode yet and we are excited for everyone to hear it.   This newly restored interview is 25 years old, but as we hear host John J. Thompson and Mullins talk about the struggle to pursue honest artistry and personal spiritual growth amidst evangelical fundamentalism and the benefits and beauty of exposing ourselves to challenging ideas and people, it seems like it could have been recorded yesterday.  Visit TrueTunes.com for the full show notes and please spread the word. (And don't miss Part 1, where the Ragamuffins set the stage so beautifully.) 

To many, singer and songwriter Rich Mullins was a favorite artist; the man behind songs like “Awesome God,” “Creed,” and “Hold Me Jesus.” To others, he was an enigma—a beautifully inscrutable amalgam of passion, authenticity, vulnerability, and transcendence. To some, he was a friend, a benefactor, or even a brother. On this special two-part episode of the True Tunes Podcast we will revisit the legacy of this unlikely pilgrim through conversations with some of his closest compatriots, and by hearing from the man himself – in the form of a previously unheard, and recently unearthed interview conducted in the old True Tunes record store in 1995. In Part 1 John J. Thompson visits with Rich’s Ragamuffin Band members, Jimmy Abegg, Aaron Smith, and Mark Robertson to help put it all in perspective. On Part 2 (coming soon) he sits down with Mitch McVicker and Phil Madeira, and talks with singer-songwriter Derek Webb who, though he has moved away from Christian music, recently released a cover of Mullins’ “We Are Not As Strong As We Think We Are.” On the Jukebox, we dive into the obviously Mullins-haunted career of Andrew Peterson.   24 years since his passing, might we find some guidance from Rich about navigating the complexities of faith, doubt, and mystery by asking better questions and listening more carefully to the sounds around us?  

Host John J. Thompson is back in the living room of writer, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and artist Phil Madeira (Emmylou Harris, Buddy Miller, John Scofield,) to talk about his recent solo projects, Providence, Crickets, Open Heart, and Hornet’s Nest as they wrap up this wide-ranging chat. The conversation gets into pretty deep waters right out of the gate, with Phil sharing some very vulnerable context about personal relationship challenges, the pain that came with the loss of a loved one, his own search for answers, and his commitment to staying true to his calling and how that has shaped his work as an artist. We’ll ruffle some feathers on this one, no doubt, but that’s what art is supposed to do, right?On the True Tunes Jukebox, we’ll take a deep dive into those recent solo albums, listening closely to some really interesting, and complicated, contemporary jazz-inflected Americana music and how it might help us find resolution in the midst of these complicated times.

He’s been a go-to side-man for too many A-listers to count and is currently a member of Emmylou Harris’ Red Dirt Boys. When he’s not in the studio or on the road with any number of amazing Americana, country, blues, or rock artists, he’s writing songs and recording his own albums or collaborating and producing amazing compilation projects. In Part 1 of this two-part deep dive into the life and work of multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer, and artist, Phil Madeira, we learn about this musical polymath’s roots, evolution, and determination to shed limitations. Along the way, you’ll hear examples of his music, cuts he wrote for other artists, examples of his production work, and just a handful of the hundreds of tracks made so much cooler by the presence of his B3, lap-steel, or other instruments of soul.In Part Two, we’ll wrap up this wide-ranging conversation and listen through Madeira’s most recent solo work, including his brand new project, Hornet’s Nest. Born from conflict, pain, and loss, these beautiful songs could only have been crafted by someone who has been there and back and lived to tell about it.Full Show Notes, including song list, links, and contact info is available at TrueTunes.com or by clicking HERE.

El pasado 9 de Octubre se cumplía el 80º aniversario del nacimiento de John Lennon y por ello dedicamos nuestro programa a escuchar varias de sus composiciones en las voces de músicos incluidos en el gran paraguas de la Americana. El próximo martes será obligado recordar que 40 años atrás un loco asesino que no merece ni tan siquiera que se recuerde su nombre nos privó de su presencia a las puertas del edificio Dakota de Nueva York. Por eso, hoy nos adelantamos a esa fecha para recordar cómo los más significativos músicos de Americana han mirado en alguna ocasión las canciones que John Lennon creó para formar parte de la discografía de los Beatles.  El cuarteto de Liverpool grabó “One After 909” en su concierto de la terraza y esa versión en directo fue la que se incluyó en el álbum original. Era un tema de Lennon que compuso con 17 años y hacía referencia a un número, el 9, que parecía perseguirle. Nació el 9 de octubre y por entonces vivía en el 9 de Newcastle Road. Por entonces se escuchaban varias canciones que hablaban de trenes de carga como "Rock Island Line" o “Midnight Special” y John y PaulMcCartney decidieron ponerla un ritmo similar. El cuarteto llegó a grabar la canción en la primavera de 1963, durante las sesiones de "From Me to You" y "Thank You Girl”, que conformaron su tercer single, pero el resultado no les convenció y la desestimaron. Willie Nelson quiso homenajear al grupo con su propia versión. Los más veteranos artistas de country también han tenido un momento en su carrera para rememorar alguna canción de los Beatles. Kris Kristofferson también echó una mirada a los Fab 4 para versionar una canción claramente compuesta por John Lennon como fue “Paperback Writer” haciendo referencia a su faceta de escritor. Sería grabada por los Beatles cuando trabajaban en 1966 en Revolver, y aunque se editó en single en su momento, quedó fuera de sus álbumes oficiales. Se acaban de cumplir 55 años de la salida al mercado de Rubber Soul, uno de los discos más determinantes de la discografía de los Beatles y en el que las canciones de John Lennon tuvieron una significación relevante. Aquel trabajo lo cerraba “Run For Your Life”, que fue, por el contrario, la primera canción que grabaron para el disco. Para componer aquel tema sobre los celos con tonalidades de country, Lennon se basó en Elvis y su "Baby Let's Play House", utilizando incluso una frase completa de aquella canción de El Rey. John Cowan, una de las voces más potentes de la Americana, firmó en 2014 por el sello Compass para afrontar un proyecto que tituló Sixty, producido por su buen amigo y compañero de los Doobie Brothers, John McFee, y en el que pudimos encontrar una lista interminable de selectos invitados, desde Leon Russell, Alison Krauss y Rodney Crowell, hasta Bernie Leadon, Sam Bush o Chris Hillman, pasando por Huey Lewis, Bonnie Bramlett, Ray Benson y varios más. Su versión de “Run For Your Life” se convirtió en uno de los cortes de bonificación de la edición de lujo de Sixty, donde el artista de Ohio exhibió su poderío vocal. En Rubber Soul John Lennon compuso cuatro temas de forma independiente y otros tantos McCartney. También fueron cuatro en los que la pareja colaboró conjuntamente y dos los firmó George Harrison. “Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)” pasó a ser la primera canción de rock en la que aparecía un sitar y, como todo aquel álbum Rubber Soul al que pertenecía, marcó en música y letra un paso de gigante en la evolución de los Beatles. De hecho, John Lennon la creó como una carta a su mujer, Cynthia, admitiendo una aventura. Tim O’Brien aprovechó las tonalidades folkies para realizar una versión imponente que sirvió de cierre a su disco de 2011 Two Journeys. En realidad, escarbó en los antecedentes irlandeses del cuarteto de Liverpool, un importante puerto de entrada para tantos exiliados que buscaban trabajo. Una de las bandas míticas del bluegrass es Hot Rize, fundada en 1978 por Tim O'Brien, Pete Wernick, Charles Sawtelle y Mike Scap, aunque este último fue reemplazado muy pronto por Nick Forster. Además, tenían un divertido “alter ego” llamado Red Knuckles & The Trailblazers. En su álbum Shades In The Past incluyeron su particular versión de “Nowhere Man”, que también pertenece a Rubber Soul, el sexto álbum de los Beatles y que parece definir en un principio el carácter del propio John Lennon. Tras admitir posteriormente que consumía drogas, el personaje de esta canción fue analizado desde todos los puntos de vista posibles por los expertos. Como conclusión, aquél “hombre de ninguna parte” podía ser desde un “camello” al capitán del Submarino Amarillo. Rhett Miller, el nombre artístico de Stewart Ransom Miller II, siempre ha estado asociado a la banda Old 97’s como su líder y cantante solista. The Dreamer es el quinto álbum de estudio que graba al margen de su banda y un disco en el que se marca un cambio en sus exposiciones personales. Resultaba curioso que cuando Rhett Miller grababa en solitario tenía ciertas inclinaciones hacia el pop con cierto acento británico, mientras que con Old 97’s se manifestaba mucho más inclinado a las raíces. En 2005 se realizó un álbum dedicado al álbum Rubber Soul con motivo de su cumpleaños número 40, This Bird Has Flown – A 40th Anniversary Tribute to the Beatles' Rubber Soul, y en él participó el músico tejano con esta versión de “Girl”. El siglo XXI comenzó con una película llamada I Am Sam que protagonizaron Sean Penn y Michelle Pfeiffer. Los productores pretendieron que su banda sonora estuviera compuesta de grabaciones originales de los Beatles, pero ante su imposibilidad, optaron por reunir toda una serie de versiones de la banda de Liverpool realizadas por nombres tan sonoros como Rufus Wainwright, los Wallflowers, Sheryl Crow, Nick Cave, Ben Harper o los Black Crowes, entre otros. Poco antes de su disolución en 2002, la banda de los hermanos Robinson grabó “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds”, una de las composiciones de Lennon siempre controvertida que formó parte en 1967 de Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, el disco que lo cambió todo. El tema de apertura del último álbum grabado por los Beatles, Abbey Road, aunque se publicara en 1969, antes que Let It Be, es uno de los más musculosos del grupo. En parte tiene que ver con la veneración de John Lennon por Chuck Berry y su entrega a las campañas en favor de la paz en las que estaba muy implicado por entonces. El tejano Delbert McClinton escogió “Come Together” para el álbum Come Together - America Salutes The Beatles de 1995, en el que participaron varios de los grandes nombres de la country music. Espléndido con la armónica, en una gira por Gran Bretaña a comienzos de los 60 con Bruce Channel, al que había acompañado en su clásico "Hey! Baby", enseñó a John Lennon algunos trucos con la armónica. Se notó mucho en “Love Me Do”. Cuando Rosanne Cash dejó el sello Columbia en 1965, la compañía publicó un recopilatorio titulado Retrospective, al que se añadió esta versión de “I’m Only Sleeping”, que John Lennon compuso para Revolver en 1966 en el reverso de una carta. Refleja a la perfección su estado de ánimo de entonces cuando no estaba de gira con los Beatles. Se pasaba el día en la cama bajo los efectos de las drogas durmiendo, escribiendo o leyendo… hasta que McCartney venía a interrumpirle para trabajar sobre las canciones. Los Beatles impulsaron el comienzo de diversas bandas del Merseybeat. Varias de sus composiciones sirvieron para que aquellos grupos empezaran a despuntar. En 1963 John Lennon entregó uno de esos temas a Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas. Era “I Call Your Name”, que él mismo había escrito antes incluso de que se formaran los Beatles en casa de su tía Mimi, con la que se crió. Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas la utilizaron como B de “Bad To Me”, otra composición del binomio Lennon/McCartney, pero no acabó de convencerlos, de tal forma que los Beatles hicieron su propia versión, apareciendo primeramente en Estados Unidos dentro del llamado Second Album y en 1964 en Gran Bretaña formando parte del EP Long Tall Sally. En 1966, The Mamas And The Papas, “la familia real de Laurel Canyon”, hicieron su debut con el álbum If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears y la dieron a conocer a nivel popular en Estados Unidos. “In My Life” se incluyó originalmente en un Lp tan imponente como Rubber Soul de los Beatles. En el texto, aunque la autoría fue compartida con McCartney, un John Lennon que acababa de cumplir 25 años recordaba con nostalgia a la gente y los lugares donde pasó una parte muy importante de sus años jóvenes. La canción tiene claras reminiscencias de “Penny Lane” y “Strawberry Fields Forever” y el músico exploraría la misma temática en los siguientes momentos de su carrera, de forma muy especial en el doble álbum del cuarteto, bien conocido como el Álbum Blanco. En 1994, Crosby, Stills & Nash editaron su álbum After The Storm coincidiendo con el 25º aniversario de su disco de debut, tras haber estado dedicados a ampliar su discografía en solitario, con dos nuevos álbumes por parte de Stills y Crosby, además de un recopilatorio de Nash. Todas las canciones de este disco que les llevó a hacer una larga gira, incluyendo el Woodstock ’94, pertenecían a los tres músicos, excepto una versión de “In My Life”.  John Lennon siempre admitió las más variadas experiencias, que se fueron ampliando con el paso de los años. El rock and roll de sus comienzos dio paso a una cierta fijación por figuras como las de Elvis, los Everly Brothers o Bob Dylan y su forma de crear canciones. Si ellos podían hacerlo, Lennon también. “You've Got To Hide Your Love Away” fue una de sus primeras reflexiones sobre su manera de escribir, que había comenzado con temas como "I'm a Loser" en el verano del 64. Lennon la compuso en casa, buscando un nuevo tema para la película Help!. Jackson Browne, que al versionar a los Beatles siempre se ha inclinado por las creaciones de John Lennon, la cantó así en uno de sus homenajes. Jonathan Edwards es un veterano artista de Aitkin, Minnesota, que empezó su carrera abriendo los conciertos de B.B. King y la Allman Brothers Band, fichando por Capricorn Records y lanzando su disco de debut hace 47 años. En 2011, Jonathan Edwards publicaba su álbum My Love Will Keep incluyendo una versión de “She Loves You”, muy alejada de como conocíamos aquella canción de los Beatles que a mediados de septiembre de 1963 se editaba como single en Estados Unidos en un pequeño sello discográfico llamado Swan Records. En este caso, “She Loves You” tiene que ver con una cierta fijación de Paul McCartney con una canción de Bobby Rydell titulada “Forget Him” (“Olvídale”) y pensó en crear una dónde preguntar “¿Ella te quiere?” y que los demás contestaran “Si”. Lo comentó con Lennon y la idea quedó flotando en el ambiente. Empezaron a trastear con las guitarras en el hotel mientras estaban de gira con Roy Orbison y Gerry and the Pacemakers y terminaron aquella composición en casa de Paul al día siguiente. Jim Lauderdale también se fijó en el álbum Rubber Soul del cuarteto de Liverpool y eligió “I’m Looking Through You”, llevándose el tema hasta el sonido de Bakersfield y las influencias de Buck Owens. Producido por Phil Madeira y grabado en la Music City, Nueva York y San Francisco, el álbum Let Us In Americana contaba entre los invitados con Buddy Miller, Will Hoge, Rodney Crowell, Ketch Secor de Old Crow Medicine Show, Steve Earle y Allison Moorer.

Americana Legend Phil Madeira Discusses His New Album Providence. 

Phil Madeira is a multi-award winning, multi-instrumentalist, who has played alongside the likes of Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello, Garth Brooks, and more. In this podcast episode, Madeira talks about his musical beginnings as a drummer in his high school marching band, his current piano-centric solo record, and playing in front of millions on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

The Mosley's are Stephen and Rachel Mosley, a husband and wife sing-songwriter duo from Florida. Their music is earthy and reflective and indicative of the Americana folk of the South. Their first full length album Ordinary Time was produced by Phil Madeira and co-produced by Jimmy Abegg. I got to sit down with them for an interview at UTR Media's Escape to the Lake festival. You can read more about The Mosleys and purchase their music at their website: http://www.themosleysmusic.com/

Music fans have seen and heard him on stage for years with Buddy Miller, Emmylou Harris and others. He's the guy with the pork pie hat (which the evidence will show he was wearing before it was a fad) playing the organ and the accordion. He's also a successful producer and songwriter. His story is fascinating. His journey of faith is personal and challenging. And he's one of Nashville's deep thinkers and understated musical heroes. Phil Madeira is my guest. Madeira grew up in Barrington, Rhode Island in a religious family. His father was a Baptist minister - albeit a moderate one he says. In his 2011 memoir God On The Rocks, Distilling Religion, Savoring Faith, Phil says he was obsessed from an early age with the blues and gospel music of the deep south. He played drums, then guitar and keyboards, and his first working band was several years on the road with Christian rocker and guitar player Phil Keaggy. In Nashville, where he's lived for more than thirty years, Madeira migrated from Christian music to Americana, sometimes in tandem with his friends and collaborators Buddy and Julie Miller. Madeira's songs have been recorded by Alison Krauss, Garth Brooks and Bruce Hornsby among many others. His highest profile achievement to date however may have been producing the 2011 anthology Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us. The project included contributions from a multitude of top tier artists. Emmylou Harris, Shawn Mullins, Dan Tyminski and others took on the producer's challenge to write about God as Love and nothing more. It was hailed by critics, spawned a remarkable live event at the 2012 Americana convention in Nashville and ultimately inspired a second volume in 2016. Also this hour, a conversation with John Lomax III of Nashville, grandson of John Avery Lomax, one of America's foremost folklorists and song hunters.
