Ihr kennt Peter Doherty als eine der kontroversiellen Figuren der Musikwelt in den frühen Nullerjahren, als OG des Indie Sleaze und hoffentlich vor allem als einen der größten Songwriter aller Zeiten. Von The Libertines, Babyshambles und Solo. Peter lebt mittlerweile ein ruhigeres Leben zwischen Margate und Frankreich, The Libertines sind reunited, Babyshambles auch und veröffentlichen in Kürze ein neues Live-Album. Peter Doherty bringt mit "The Pete Doherty Show" auch seine eigene Talkshow raus – und dann haben Babyshambles nicht nur einmal, sondern gleich dreimal in Österreich gespielt, einmal in Kärnten, einmal in Vorarlberg, einmal in Wien. Dort, vor ihrer Show, ausverkauft, Open Air in der Arena, hat sich nicht nur Peter, sondern ein Großteil von Babyshambles Zeit genommen, sich mit uns hinzusetzen und mit uns zu plaudern.

Will any of today's hit songs still be sung 50 years from now?Kurt, Tully, KLo, and Neil look back at the music that shaped them—from Hank Williams Jr., Van Halen, and Def Leppard to John Denver, Glen Campbell, Elvis, Bryan Adams, and Paul Rodgers—and debate whether modern songs are given enough time to become true classics.They also reveal how Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan's alternating stadium show works, explain why songwriters don't really “sell” individual songs, and discuss how streaming and shrinking attention spans have changed the way listeners experience music.Then things deteriorate—in the best possible way—with exhausted airport stories, Tully's confrontation on a plane, the dangers of flying with guitars, UPS losing a one-of-a-kind custom bass, Kelley mistaking his treadmill malfunction for an earthquake, and the strangest things fans throw onstage.Listen all the way through and remember the secret phrase: “Donk Toss.”______________________________________________________________________________________________SPONSORS: The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!Redefining Coworking - Exceptional Office Space for Every BusinessBook a tour today at espaces.comFrom the Patriot Mobile studios:Don't get fooled by other cellular providers pretending to share your values or have the same coverage.

Sam Smith burst onto the music scene in 2014 with their début album, “In the Lonely Hour.” It was one of the best-selling albums of the decade and won Smith three Grammys, for Best Pop Vocal Album and both Record and Song of the Year, for the massive hit “Stay With Me.” Smith's early hits were ballads of heartbreak and unrequited love, so their new album marks something of a change: it's an album of love songs, requited in this case. Many were written about Smith's fiancé, the fashion designer Christian Cowan. Smith talked about the writing process that led to their new album “Hazel Eyes,” which comes out August 21st, with New Yorker Radio Hour producer Jeffrey Masters. Further reading: “Sam Smith's Sugary Loneliness and the Choir Effect,” by Doreen St. Félix “Getting the James Bond Song Right,” by Ian Crouch   New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Das dritte Studioalbum "Slippery When Wet" war vermutlich das wichtigste Album überhaupt für Bon Jovi. Denn bei ihrem Plattenlabel stand die Band auf der Abschussliste. Bevor die Band 1986 mit "Slippery When Wet" und den Hits des Albums "Livin‘ On A Prayer", "Wanted Dead Or Alive" und "You Give Love A Bad Name" ihr erfolgreichstes Album veröffentlichte, war ihr Plattenlabel nicht gut auf die Band zu sprechen. Nach einem ersten Achtungserfolg mit ihrer Single "Runaway" und dem dazugehörigen Debütalbum hatte man große Hoffnungen in Jon Bon Jovi und die Gruppe gesetzt. Das zweite Album "7800° Fahrenheit" blieb bei der Veröffentlichung jedoch deutlich hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Für die Band hieß es bei Album Nummer drei also: "Make it or break it". Derek Shulman, der später zu einem der wichtigsten A&R-Manager der Rockgeschichte werden sollte, hatte der Band geraten, sich mit dem Songwriter Desmond Child zusammenzutun. Dieser damals noch junge Mann sollte zu einem sehr bedeutenden Songwriter in der Rockgeschichte werden. (Später arbeitete er mit Künstlern wie Aerosmith, Kiss, Jennifer Rush, INXS, Katy Perry und auch mit der deutschen Band Tokio Hotel zusammen.) Jon Bon Jovi, Gitarrist Richie Sambora und Songwriter Desmond Child setzten sich im Keller der Familie Sambora in der Heimatstadt von Bon Jovi, New Jersey, zusammen und schrieben während ihrer Sessions mehr als dreißig Songs für "Slippery When Wet". Dabei entstanden auch Songs wie "Livin‘ On A Prayer" und "You Give Love A Bad Name". Besonders bemerkenswert ist die Arbeit von Gitarrist Richie Sambora, der sich mit dem Album sehr stark weiterentwickelt und seinen Stil gefestigt hat. Mit "Slippery When Wet" konnten Bon Jovi sich von härteren Bands abgrenzen und haben sich mehr in Richtung Stadionrock entwickelt. Außerdem haben sie ihren eigenen, unverwechselbaren Sound geschaffen, für den Millionen Fans auf der Welt sie lieben. Bon Jovi wurden noch viel klarer und ausgereifter als bei ihren Vorgängeralben. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Slippery When Wet" sprechen wir im Podcast (11:33) – "You Give Love A Bad Name"(27:53 ) – "Livin' On A Prayer"(40:03) – "Social Disease"(44:54 ) – "Wanted Dead Or Alive"(52:30) – "Never Say Goodbye"__________ Shownotes Interview mit Cover-Photograph Mark Weiss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQce0rHjEewRick Beato zu "Livin' On A Prayer": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJgrXqvpXF0Peter Frampton erklärt die Talk Box: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UdexmEq0he0So funktioniert die Talkbox: https://www.delamar.de/gitarre/gitarren-effektgeraete/talkbox-68983/Musikvideo zu "Livin On A Prayer": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDK9QqIzhwkMusikvideo zu "You Give Love A Bad Name": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrZHPOeOxQQ&list=RDKrZHPOeOxQQ&start_radio=1Bon Jovis Auftritt bei den VMA's 1989: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAiW4jQ-Vno&list=RDrAiW4jQ-Vno&start_radio=1ARD-Podcast-Tipp: Berlin Sounds Inside - Staffel 3: https://www.ardsounds.de/sendung/berlin-sounds-inside-der-musiktalk-mit-anja-caspary/urn:ard:show:1aad788d434c3934/

Episode 110: Evan "Kidd" Bogart has worn nearly every hat in the music industry. From mailroom A&R at Interscope Records to hit songwriter (Beyoncé's "Halo," Rihanna's "SOS"), artist manager, booking agent, and now buying music catalogs with Seeker and advocating for creators as Vice Chair of the Recording Academy. He's one of the rare people who has sat in nearly every seat at the table. In this episode, Elmo Lovano goes deep with Evan Bogart on both the craft and the business of music. Evan is the son of Casablanca Records founder Neil Bogart, the legendary executive behind KISS, Donna Summer, Parliament, and the Village People, and manager, Joyce Bogart Trabulus. He grew up inside the music business, tried to make it as a rapper, and worked his way up from the Interscope mailroom to the A&R department. As a teenager, he discovered Eminem and was the first person to put Em in front of Jimmy Iovine. He'd go on to sign Kara's Flowers, who later changed their name to Maroon 5. After getting sober in his early 20s, Evan reinvented himself as a songwriter, and his very first composition, "SOS" for Rihanna, went to No. 1. He followed it with the Grammy-winning "Halo" for Beyoncé, co-written with Ryan Tedder in just three hours, plus hits for Britney Spears, Madonna, Lizzo, Jason Derulo, Leona Lewis, and more. Today, Evan is the CEO of Seeker Music, the creator-led music rights, publishing, and record company he's built into a catalog of more than 19,000 copyrights and master recordings valued at roughly $400 million. The catalog includes works by Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, One Direction, Drake, Christopher Cross, Joan Jett, Run the Jewels, and Lewis Capaldi. Named the #2 Most Innovative Music Company of 2025 by Fast Company, Seeker recently closed its inaugural $267 million asset-backed securitization with M&G Investments and announced a global distribution partnership with Virgin Music Group. If you don't know what that means, that's OK, because we break it all down. We get into how you actually value and buy a music catalog, the business of publishing and masters, how songwriter splits and royalties work, why music rights have become an institutional asset class, and how music-backed securitization deals get financed. We also dig into Evan's role as Vice Chair of the Recording Academy and Co-Chair of the GRAMMYs Songwriters & Composers Wing, where he fights for fair mechanical royalty rates, helped create the Songwriter of the Year Grammy, and is helping shape the conversation around AI and the future of music rights, creativity, and ownership. This is the deep, insider version of Evan Bogart's story. The craft, the deals, the money, and the mission. For anyone who wants to understand how the music business actually works. I hope you enjoy the conversation with my dear friend, Evan Bogart! This episode is brought to you by our friends at The Pod Company!

SHOW NOTES:Nashville hit songwriter Craig Wiseman (350+ cuts, 29 #1s, NSAI's Songwriter of the Decade) joins Eddie Rester — with Cody Hickman sitting in for Chris McAlilly — for a wide-ranging, funny, and often moving conversation. Wiseman talks about his late mother Evelyn Wiseman, the faith that shaped both her life and his songwriting, and what it means to stay so absorbed in your calling that you stop worrying about how you look doing it. Along the way: rice-and-butter poverty in early Nashville, a song about butter beans, a stewardship sermon that stuck with him, and the case for “long ball” patience in work and in faith.RESOURCES:• Craig Wiseman — Big Loud Publishing bio: https://bigloud.com/publishing/craig-wiseman/

Rick MalteseTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Toronto's own Rick Maltese. Rick is a jazz pianist, composer, songwriter, and singer. In this episode, we chat about how he first got into jazz, and being a Canadian, that wasn't an easy task! We discuss some of his early influences, including his dad, and some of the greats. I do dig into where he gained the confidence to learn to play an instrument as an early age. We talk about some of the different styles of piano playing and why he started playing The Beatles songs as jazz tunes! Next, I ask him about the various brands and types of pianos, and which are his favorites. Rick shares some of the reasons behind why he decided to write lyrics to accompany his music, as well as why he wrote them in a manner that advocates for social consciousness. Rick has fairly recently released 3 albums of new music with some of his friends. Rick Maltese and Friends Vol 1, 2, & 3 are out now and available just about everywhere. Volume 1 is actually released under The RGB Trio. The other members include George Koller, Ben Wittman, and Bill McBirnie. Rick is kind enough to let me play 2 songs from 2 different albums in this episode, and he explains in depth what each of them is about and why he felt the need to write them. Check out Rick's website for more details on where the music can be found, and for any upcoming live dates

Send us Fan MailA stranger walks the Camino de Santiago for you, puts your name on a Compostela, and mails it to your door. What would that do to your life? Leigh sits down with her longtime friend Rocco Rossi, a Camino veteran with 23 Caminos behind him, to talk about the true tradition that shaped his debut novel Finding Grace: Vicari Pro Camino, walking on behalf of someone else as an act of blessing, memory, and love.We dig into the real-life tragedy that sparked Rocco's commitment to walking in another person's name, and why the Camino can hold grief without erasing it. Rocco shares how community, ritual, and simple kindness can become a lifeline, especially for people carrying addiction, loss, or shame. We also talk about the “great leveler” effect of the Camino Frances, where a job title or bank account means nothing and what matters is the person you are over a shared meal or a few quiet kilometers.Then we step into some of the most powerful Camino moments from the book and from lived experience: the humbling foot washing ritual at San Nicolas, the deep stillness that modern life steals from us, and why the Meseta can be where the real inner pilgrimage finally begins. If you're planning a pilgrimage to Santiago, or looking for a Camino book that feels like real Camino life, you'll come away with fresh motivation and a bigger view of what walking can be.Subscribe for more Camino stories, share this with a friend who needs a little grace, and leave a review so more pilgrims can find the show.Get the book - Finding Grace : https://a.co/d/0ceHhMhlConnect with Rocco: https://www.roccorossi.com/Episode 40 with Rocco Rossi : https://podcasts.apple.com/th/podcast/40-rocco-rossi-13-caminos-and-still-counting/id1562037974?i=1000548367415Support the showBecome a supporter of The Camino Cafe Podcast:

Country Music Hall of Famer, Nashville Songwriters Hall of Famer, 2-time Country Song of the Year GRAMMY winner, and 5-time BMI Country Songwriter of the Year Paul Overstreet gives us a peek behind the curtain of his legendary career. PART ONE: Scott does his best not to throw a certain individual under the bus with a very funny story involving Paul Overstreet. Plus, the guys pay tribute to the late Joe Melson, past Songcraft guest and primary Roy Orbison collaborator. PART TWO: Our in-depth conversation with Paul OverstreetABOUT PAUL OVERSTREET Paul Overstreet is one of the most successful songwriters in Nashville history and among the three inductees in the Country Music Hall of Fame's class of 2026. His catalog of classics includes “Same Ole Me,” recorded by George Jones, as well as the Randy Travis hits “Digging Up Bones,” “No Place Like Home,” “Deeper Than the Holler,” “On the Other Hand,” and “Forever and Ever, Amen.” The latter two were both named Song of the Year by NSAI, the CMA, and the ACM. Additionally, “Forever and Ever, Amen” earned a Grammy award for Best Country Song in 1988. Overstreet won another Best Country Song Grammy in 1992 for “Love Can Build a Bridge,” which was a major hit for The Judds.  Other highlights of the Paul Overstreet songbook include the number one hits “A Long Line of Love,” recorded by Michael Martin Murphy,” “When You Say Nothing at All,” which was a hit for both Keith Whitley and Alison Krauss, and “Some Beach” for Blake Shelton. In addition to his achievements with other performers, Overstreet became a successful recording artist in his own right. He reached the top of the charts in 1987 with “I Won't Take Less Than Your Love,” which he recorded with Tanya Tucker and Paul Davis, and had hits with the group S-K-O, a trio he formed with Thom Schuyler and Fred Knobloch. From 1988 through 1991 Paul scored eight consecutive top 10 singles as a solo artist, including “Seein' My Father in Me” and “Daddy's Come Around.”  Paul was named BMI's Country Songwriter of the year five years in a row from 1987 through 1991, a feat that hasn't been duplicated since. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003.    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this episode of Americana Podcast: The 51st State, host Robert Earl Keen welcomes acclaimed singer-songwriter, actor, and Academy Award winner Ryan Bingham for a conversation recorded at the legendary Continental Club in Austin, Texas. Before Hollywood recognition and Yellowstone fame, Bingham's life was shaped by the realities of the American West—rodeo circuits, ranch work, and years spent writing songs rooted in lived experience rather than romanticized myth. That authenticity became the foundation of a career that began with his breakthrough album Mescalito and led to an Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Grammy for "The Weary Kind" from Crazy Heart. Bingham joins REK to discuss his long-awaited return with They Call Us the Lucky Ones, his first studio album in seven years. Created alongside longtime collaborators The Texas Gentlemen, the record emerged from relaxed jam sessions rather than meticulously planned studio work, resulting in an album that feels both spontaneous and deeply personal. Together, REK and Bingham explore songwriting, growing up in the American West, finding an authentic creative voice, and the experiences that continue to shape Bingham's music. It's a conversation about resilience, gratitude, and why the most enduring songs are often the ones that simply tell the truth.

Welcome to another Legends episode of Follow Your Dream, the award winning podcast and global arts platform. Legends features profiles of iconic artists and influential figures who helped shape our culture. This Legends episode spotlights Irving Berlin who was - simply put - one of the greatest songwriters of all time.  Irving Berlin was born in Russia with the name Israel Beilin. He moved to America at age 5 with his family to escape the pogroms against the Jews. He taught himself the piano and he composed only in the key of F#, meaning the black keys. His songs captured the identity and feel of his adopted country. He was known for writing music and lyrics that were uncomplicated, simple and direct, with his stated aim being to "reach the heart of the average American". He received Academy, Tony and Grammy awards, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Over his 60 year career he wrote 1,500 songs, with “Alexander's Ragtime Band” in 1911 being his first hit. His catalog included the scores to 20 original Broadway shows and 15 original Hollywood films. His songs were nominated eight times for Academy Awards.  Let's listen now to excerpts from several of his greatest hits sung by the stars of his era.  “God Bless America”, sung by Kate Smith;  “Blue Skies”, sung by Frank Sinatra “Easter Parade, sung by Judy Garland “Cheek To Cheek” sung by Ella Fitzgerald “There's No Business Like Show Business” sung by Ethel Merman, and of course  “White Christmas” sung by Bing Crosby. None other than George Gershwin called Irving Berlin “the greatest songwriter that has ever lived", and Jerome Kern, no slouch himself, said that "Irving Berlin has no place in American music—he is American music."

The legendary Swamp Dogg returns to Songcraft after more than a decade to talk about, well, whatever he wants. And we're here for it! PART ONE Paul and Scott contemplate their second visit with Swamp DoggPART TWO Our in-depth interview with the original D-O-double G! ABOUT SWAMP DOGG R&B cult favorite Jerry “Swamp Dogg” Williams is best known as the co-writer, with Gary U.S. Bonds, of the cross-genre classic, “She's All I Got,” which became a Top 10 R&B single for Freddie North and a #2 country hit for Johnny Paycheck in 1971. Williams' career began in 1954 when, at the age of 12, he made his first record, “HTD Blues.” He found success in the 1960s, recording the Top 40 R&B hit “Baby You're My Everything” under the name Little Jerry Williams, and writing songs for other artists, including Gene Pitney's Top 20 Pop single, “She's a Heartbreaker.” He became Atlantic Records' first African American staff producer in 1968 but left the following year to pursue independent projects in Muscle Shoals, Alabama and Macon, Georgia. By the 1970s Swamp was an in-demand producer and songwriter, penning Top 40 R&B hits for Doris Duke, Arthur Conley, and Dee Dee Warwick.  Around the same time, he reinvented himself as Swamp Dogg, releasing a series of eccentric soul albums with lyrics marked by frank sexuality, biting satire, radical politics, and provocative social observations. His debut LP, Total Destruction to Your Mind, was eventually certified Gold, while subsequent releases, including Gag a Maggott, I'm Not Selling Out – I'm Buying In, An Awful Christmas and a Lousy New Year, and The White Man Made Me Do It garnered considerable accolades among underground music lovers and earned Swamp what one journalist described as “a cultural niche somewhere between Rudy Ray Moore and Frank Zappa.” In recent years, his vast catalog has been sampled by Kid Rock, Talib Kweli, DMX, and others. Having just turned 84, Swamp shows no signs of slowing down. Since we last spoke with him in 2015, he has released five albums, including a bluegrass-inspired project called Blackgrass and his most recent release, Swamp Dogg Contemplates the Afterlife.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
