John's Website https://www.johnpapagros.com/Tour Dates https://www.johnpapagros.com/showsBorn in New Orleans, John Papa Gros (pronounced grow) has spent more than a quarter-century championing the music of the Big Easy. He's played it all New Orleans funk, rock roll, jazz, blues, Americana, pop/rock and he swirls thoseemstyles into a genre-bending gumbo that pays tribute to his influences while still pushing ahead into new territory. Like Allen Toussaint and Dr. John, Gros is a proud local who carries on the tradition of New Orleans music, both honoring its past and helping to shape its future. After kicking off his career as an organist and pianist, for George Porter Jr. Runnin Pardners, during the 1990s, Gros formed the funk group Papa Grows Funk in 2000. For 13 years, the band performed every Monday night at the Maple Leaf Bar, delivering greasy, groove-heavy Big Easy funk, while with releasing six criticallyacclaimed albums and touring the world, carrying the iR&Brand of New Orleans' music to far-flung places. Papa Grows Funk called it quits in 2013. Gros resumed is role as a top sid an for many Nola artists including Better Than Ezra, Little Feat, Anders Osborne, The Metermen, The funky Meters, and The Neville Brothers. Finally, Gros began focusing once again on songwriting and his solo career which he'd kicked off in 2004 with the album Day's End by prepping a second solo record that focuses on the full range of his musical influences and abilities. Thus River on Fire was born in 2016. River on Fire finds John shifting his songwriting focus back to the instrument that started his lifelong musical journey - the piano. The album reaches far beyond Papa Grows Funk groove-based sound and offers listeners a bit of everything party songs, funk grooves, upbeat rockers and Americana singer/songwriteR&Ballads. Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, New Orleans legendary music creator and Gros mentor, Allen Toussaint, describes John as an instrument of New Orleans music at it best. I was paying homage to Allen in every song, be it subtle hints oR&Blatant highway robbery, admits Gros. It all coming together in the right place, at the right time. As a sid an, Ive worn a lot of different musical hats, he says. With River on Fire and the new solo band, I am all about rediscovering who I am, bracing my different sides and blending it together into one package. Throughout it all, the goal r ains the same: to honor the music he's been living his whole life, and to add his own page to New Orleans' history book.

“My grandfather used to say, aim for the moon and you might catch a star on the way down. And at his funeral, I gave a sort of eulogy and told everyone this story and said, ‘I assume everyone's heard this one from him because he was a storyteller.' There were about a hundred people there, and they were like, ' No, we've not heard that story. But afterwards, fifteen, twenty people did come up to me and say, ‘He sent me a letter, and he told me this, a different thing. And he told me that…' And I guess one of my biggest inspirations, which is why I try and mentor, because I think he mentored me without saying, ‘Greg, I'm mentoring you.' But I've realized that I need to mentor people, and actually, I think all of us need to mentor and to be mentored.” – Greig WattsThis episode is the second half of my conversation with author, songwriter, and music publisher Greig Watts as we discuss bridging the gap between creativity and the practical side of business, his tips for dealing with the inevitable rejections that come in the music industry, and how a teacher who literally washed kids' mouths out with soap influenced his own approach to teaching students.And if you like what you hear and you want to support this podcast, there are a bunch of ways to do that at audiobrandingpodcast.com, including subscribing to the YouTube channel, the newsletter, writing a review, or buying me a coffee. Because this takes a lot of coffee. Thanks so much.(00:00) – Balancing Art and BusinessAs the second half of our conversation starts, Greig tells us about some of the early influences that turned him both towards and, to some extent, away from sound. “I remember having my school's careers interview,” he recalls, “and they said, ‘What do you want to be?' ‘A songwriter and a business person.' And they were like, ‘No, you need a job.' And I was like, ‘songwriter.' And eventually I sort of said, ‘Well, you know, I am running my own business, and I am writing songs.'" He talks about the wisdom his grandfather shared with him and how he now mentors other musicians, including teaching them that rejection isn't a personal failure. “It's not that you're not good enough,” he explains, “it's that someone else's song fitted [the project] better than yours. That means you could have had the best song, but their song fitted the criteria, so [your] song can still go somewhere else.”(12:51) – Keeping the Dream AliveGreig tells us about his first book, originally written during COVID-19 when he wanted to share what he's learned with his children. “It's called Keeping the Dream Alive, [because] I'm a dreamer. So that's the main thing. But then it has the subtitle of A Songwriter's Guide to Overcoming Rejection, Finding Success, and, most importantly, I think, Enjoying the Journey Along the Way.” We discuss the power of sound and one particularly poignant memory of his grandmother, who suffered from dementia in her later years. “They'd just done their Christmas nativity play,” he recalls. “So I said to them, ‘Why don't you sing ‘Silent Night?'' And so they sang ‘Silent Night,' and up she sat, and she sang it with them. And then at the end, when we'd finished, she sang a verse that we never even knew.”(24:06) – The Difference Teachers MakeAs our conversation wraps up, Greig shares his own thoughts about the power of sound, and how deeply it can connect us with the past. “As a 35-year-old man,” he recalls hearing the 1970s Incredible Hulk theme for the first time in years, “I started crying, and I was like, ‘Why am I crying? I don't know why I'm crying.' And then I remembered I used to watch this when I was seven, and I always used to feel sad at that point. So the memory thirty years later triggered the same emotion.” He talks about the impact teachers have made on his life, both good and bad, and how he strives to use the lessons he's learned from them while teaching the next generation of songwriters. “They will never hear me shout at them,” he says. “I might shout an instruction across to just make sure, but not an aggressive shout because that's not my job. My job is to give them instructions, then they go out and do it.”Episode SummaryGreig shares how his grandfather inspired his mentoring philosophy.Our conversation about how neurodiverse people can excel in creativity.The importance of understanding the business side of songwriting.Connect with the Audio Branding Podcast:Book your project with Voice Overs and Vocals by visiting https://voiceoversandvocals.comConnect with me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jodikrangle/Watch the Audio Branding Podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/JodiKrangleVOConnect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodikrangle/Leave the Audio Branding Podcast a review at https://lovethepodcast.com/audiobranding (Thank you!)Share your passion effectively with these Tips for Sounding Your Best as a Podcast Guest!https://voiceoversandvocals.com/tips-for-sounding-your-best-as-a-podcast-guest/Get my Top Five Tips for Implementing an Intentional Audio Strategyhttps://voiceoversandvocals.com/audio-branding-strategy/Editing/Production by Humberto Franco - https://humbertofranco.com/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

It can even survive bad habits. The real question is whether it can survive itself.We sit down with Craig Bloxam of VSpy VSpy to trace the full arc: the teenage moments where loud guitars and screaming crowds flip a switch in your brain, the first gigs that make it feel possible, and the leap into the Sydney music scene where chaos and ambition live side by side. Craig talks candidly about the era when drugs were everywhere, how squat living in Glebe turned into a makeshift creative engine, and why writing original songs became the only way forward. If you care about Australian rock history, pub gigs, and the lived reality behind iconic records, this one goes straight to the source.From there, we get into the turning points music fans love and musicians need: the last-minute gig that starts the phone ringing, the backstage moment when Midnight Oil manager Gary Morris offers a path to a record deal, and how Countdown could change a band's life in a single Sunday night. Craig also breaks down album titles, songwriting process, and what it took to turn rough ideas into records that still hold up.We close with the 40th anniversary story: reissues on vinyl, rebuilding the live band with players like Paul Greene and Bob Spencer, rehearsing deep cuts, and taking the show back around the country. If you've ever wondered what fairness looks like inside a band, Craig's long-running decision to share royalties equally is a masterclass.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the episode with an Aussie music lover, and leave a review with your favorite Spy Vs Spy song.What is Craig Bloxom up to at the moment?

Multi-Grammy-nominated and international multi-platinum artist Lukas Graham chats about his evolution as a writer, from his breakthrough with "7 Years" up through his latest album, Good Times. PART ONE The latest chapter in Paul and Scott's fierce disagreement over perfect rhyme versus slant rhyme in lyrics PART TWO Our in-depth conversation with Lukas Graham ABOUT LUKAS GRAHAM The multi-Grammy-nominated artist Lukas Graham came to international prominence in 2016 with the song “7 Years,” an anthemic piano ballad that topped the charts in multiple countries and was certified 12-times platinum by the RIAA in the United States. The self-titled album on which it appeared, known to fans as the Blue Album, was also certified Platinum. The Danish artist has built a career spanning five albums, with hits including “Love Someone,” which was certified platinum in 18 countries. His work blends soul, pop, and deeply personal storytelling, exploring themes of family, love, and resilience — from the loss of his father to becoming one himself. Lukas's latest album, Good Times, finds him reconnecting with the Celtic, acoustic, and folk roots of his Irish father while blending them with his unique pop sensibilities. You can catch Lukas on the road now as he tours with Ed Sheeran. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We hebben het deze aflevering over de vrienden van de Europese Centrale Bank. Over Isabel Schnabel om precies te zijn. Zij zegt dat de rente al in september omhoog moet. De rente zou dan naar 2,5 procent gaan. Want zegt ze: de Europese economie groeit harder dan gedacht. En de inflatie blijft stijgen. Het is vooral de oorlog in het Midden-Oosten die energie- en voedselprijzen flink omhoog hebben geholpen. Uiteindelijk zou de rente zelfs naar 3 procent gaan, denken kenners. We kijken wat de renteverhoging (of verhogingen) betekenen voor de beurs. Of de Fed dan óók verhoogt. En wat dat met jouw aandelen doet. Hebben we het ook over Bill Gates. De man bekend van Microsoft en inmiddels ook de Epstein-files. Die wil een soort van AI-gezant worden. Hij wil (namens de VS) met Xi Jinping gaan onderhandelen over regels op het gebied van kunstmatige intelligentie. Tot slot ook aandacht voor Dolly Parton. Queen of Country én geniaal zakenvrouw. Te gast: Martine Hafkamp van Fintessa Vermogensbeheer BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie.

Send us Fan MailV. Torres stops by the show to discuss her new Album Woman. We also discuss how she once was on track to be a basketball player, but realized that the pressure was leading to burn out. We also talk about grief, the pressure of being a woman and more. ****Woman is a seven-song collection that moves fluidly through transformation and renewal. Written during one of the most profound chapters of her life and co-produced alongside longtime collaborator Steve Aguilar, Woman marks a significant creative milestone as the first full-length album Torres has co-produced herself. The project embraces the expansive genres of indie rock, Americana, desert psychedelia, Latin textures, and cinematic storytelling, creating a record that feels both deeply intimate and sonically adventurous. Across its seven tracks, Torres explores endings and beginnings, heartbreak and liberation, grief and healing, all while arriving at a greater understanding of herself.Following the release of "That Night," Torres will bring these songs to the stage with two Southern California performances: August 8 at The Studio in Hermosa Beach (tickets/info) and September 9 at The Mint in Los Angeles (direct support for acclaimed blues guitarist and vocalist Sue Foley - tickets/info). The performances offer audiences an early opportunity to experience the emotional power of Woman live.Watch the video for Woman : https://youtu.be/ISjias_rVcM?si=Zsfx_d2BCsvi4ZBuEtch the video for Winter Solstice : https://youtu.be/lfgXRqBKSVQ?si=GxIkhtckc4kdzBrrWatch the video for That Night : https://youtu.be/utbP6rzgX9M?si=7PimQMzwHEH_9AFI****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

Musician and singer-songwriter Jon Mads Blue joins Coach Dini on Vigilantes Radio Live for a conversation about rediscovering creativity, returning to music after decades away, and why sometimes the things we're meant to do have a strange way of finding us again.Jon's latest single, “New Car,” comes from his upcoming album GRAVITY (no situation) and mixes pop-rock energy with humor through the story of a man who may love his automobile just a little more than his relationship.But Jon's story reaches far beyond one song.After picking up the guitar at 12, playing in a band by 16 and developing an early love for songwriting, life eventually moved music to the background. He spent three decades in real estate and several years painting before unexpectedly returning to the guitar. Soon the songs began flowing again, old musical relationships resurfaced, and a handful of ideas quickly became a full collection of material.Jon and Coach Dini explore the influence of The Beatles, the role of humor in songwriting, why positivity matters in his music, the freedom of creating without chasing trends, and what it means to rediscover a dream later in life.Sometimes you don't have to find your passion again.Sometimes you simply have to become quiet enough to notice that it never really left.Website: https://jonmadsblue.bandzoogle.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564688535115.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonmadsblue/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jonmadsblue?lang=enSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/21vQQ5rAfJdmifthp9YrxlYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-OQ7tZBq9Q5pfnsMtOSylgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
Keef Carter returns to Vigilantes Radio Live for a deeper conversation about identity, storytelling, ownership and the next evolution of his creative career.The Harlem alternative hip-hop artist first joined Coach Dini to discuss his ByKEEF trilogy, the influence of Kanye West and Cassidy, his unconventional MTA songwriting process, and his belief that art can bring people back to life.This time, one statement changes the entire conversation:“I'm not really an artist. I'm a writer.”Keef opens up about what that realization means, why “Black boy joy” became central to his storytelling, the role Harlem continues to play in his creative identity, and how art galleries, train rides, fashion, film and everyday observation shape his writing.The conversation also explores Keef's plans to build a music production label, what ownership really means in today's industry, whether he'd rather create a hit for someone else than perform one himself, and how his ambition is evolving beyond simply becoming a successful recording artist.With BYKEEFX3 approaching and an August 28 performance at Trixx Lounge in Indianapolis on the horizon, Keef isn't simply preparing another release.He's beginning to define what comes after being the person behind the microphone.Spotify linkhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/1rPIKcoL1H005DjUMcGFw8?si=cDi6dU4LSw28O_d34kGwqA&utm_source=copy-linkInstagram @keefnycarterBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
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.

Federal Student Loan Overhaul The Trump administration's changes to available federal student loan repayment plans, along with new Parent Plus loan and graduate school borrowing caps went into effect July 1, leaving many borrowers wondering what's in their best interest as legal challenges against overhaul continue to play out in court. On Monday's edition of the "Sound of Ideas" hosted by Stephanie Haney, we look at the student loan lending landscape in the latest installment of our "Law of The Land" series, where we look at how the law affects our everyday lives. Currently the Biden-era SAVE plan is no longer available, causing concern for people who worry about not being able to make higher monthly payments under its replacement, the RAP plan, which may also increase the so-called marriage penalty for couples who file their taxes together rather than as individuals. There is some good news for federal loan borrowers who were defrauded, as a lawsuit that was first filed against the Trump administration in 2019 has finally been settled, giving relief to 450,000 people by canceling their student loan debt after they were misled by the schools they were enrolled in. On the private loan side, experts worry that the rise in online education programs coupled with federal borrowing limits may increase predatory lending practices, as people cobble together financing for their education. Guests: - Eileen Connor, Lawyer, and President and Director, Project on Predatory Student Lending (PPSL) - Carolina Rodriguez, Director, Education Debt Consumer Assistance Program (EDCAP) Jon Batiste to Perform at Blossom Music Center Multi-Grammy Award-winning artist Jon Batiste is known for creatively blending genres.

What if some of your greatest creative years don't arrive until your second act?Award-winning singer-songwriter Glen Hofbauer joins Coach Dini on Vigilantes Radio Live for a nostalgic and deeply human conversation surrounding his latest Americana Folk Rock single, “When We Were Cool.”Originally inspired by a performance at a high school's 100th alumni banquet, the song became a celebration of those universal moments when friends, music, slang, school days and youthful confidence made us believe we were the coolest people alive.But Glen's story reaches far beyond nostalgia. After playing in a garage band during high school, life eventually pushed music to the background. Roughly four decades later, he returned to his passion and has since built a second chapter that includes ten albums and being named “One To Watch” twice by the Nashville Songwriters Association.Glen and Coach Dini explore why memories become more valuable with age, the relationship between nostalgia and songwriting, returning to a dream after decades away, refusing to be confined by genre, and why creativity doesn't come with an expiration date.Sometimes moving forward begins by remembering what made you feel alive in the first place.https://glenhofbauer.com/homehttps://music.apple.com/us/artist/glen-hofbauer/1529820854https://open.spotify.com/artist/6WPC1K0IGumFv5HCmWEYnD?si=aKfoI0c1SC6vbiFcz5nOFw&nd=1&dlsi=ef7add330d5f45ebhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-Cn2_bh0u-OJ_pPYJhT9iQhttps://www.instagram.com/glenhofbauerhttps://www.facebook.com/glenhofbauermusic/http://linkedin.com/in/glen-hofbauer-72a253225Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
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.

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/
