The last couple of years have been huge for Jason Isbell. The Alabama-born singer-songwriter's latest album Weathervanes won the Grammy for Best Americana album this year. He also snagged a role in Martin Scorsese's film, Killers Of The Flower Moon, which is up for Best Picture at this year's Oscars. There was also a critically acclaimed HBO documentary released last year about the making of Isbell's previous album with the 400 Unit, Reunions, that put his personal life on full display. On today's episode I talk to Jason Isbell about his exhilarating experience filming Killers of the Flower Moon and how he prepared to act in scenes opposite Leonardo DiCaprio (heads up—there are some major spoilers in this conversation). Jason also contemplates how he will write about the dissolution of his marriage, and why he struggles to write a balls-out rock song. You can hear a playlist of some of our favorite Jason Isbell songs HERE.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jason Isbell is my guest on the final episode of Season 3 of That's How I Remember It. Jason is, of course, one of the great songwriters of our time. His newest record with his band The 400 Unit is 2023's Weathervanes. It continues an incredible and probably unrivaled streak of great records in this past decade. We talked about that as well as Patterson Hood's songs, Pentecostal band chaos, sequencing for vinyl, David Gilmour and Paul Kossoff, great backstage graffiti, whether Tool was influenced by The Grifters and, of course, Ybor City. Big thanks to Jason for joining us. Thanks to you for listening to Season 3. We will be back for more, stay tuned!

This week we borrowed an idea from the homey Myke C Town (with Myke's permission of course). Myke has a series called Out of my Element where his Patreon subscribers recommend albums for him to review. You can find all of Myke's Out of my Element episodes here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWEBNnrvioxwfYZiY7EMgRJ5D8Nl10yGx&si=ep2_v9CJa9vpo2IR We changed up the format slightly, and each member of the pod took an album that was recommended by our Patreon supporters. Alaska went with Salami Rose Joe Louis' Son of a Sauce. Zilla covered Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit's album Weathervanes. Castro covered Wilco's Sky Blue Sky.

While host Paul Myers is away, we're looking back at two different interviews from 2023 featuring artists who were nominated for Grammy Awards this year. One of them, Jason Isbell, was also in Martin Scorsese's Academy Award nominated film, Killers Of The Flower Moon, and was 2023's RSD Ambassador along with his partner, and friend of the show, Amanda Shires. Jason and the 400 Unit delivered the Grammy nominated album Weathervanes, which we discuss in this interview. And we're also running an interview with Allison Russell, who caught the Recording Academy's ear for her triumphant 2023 album, The Returner. The Record Store Day Podcast is written, produced, engineered, and hosted by Paul Myers, who also composed the theme and selected interstitial music. Sponsored by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Tito's Handmade Vodka, RSDMRKT.com, and Furnace Record Pressing (the official pressing plant of RSD.) Thanks to RSD co-founders Carrie Colliton and Michael Kurtz.  

Jason Isbell's last Rundown was in 2019. The guitarist and songwriter, who we've called “Americana's poet laureate,” is a huge gearhead though—and his collection is truly the stuff of dreams—so a lot can happen in a few years. Currently touring with his acclaimed 400 Unit band in support of the highly acclaimed Weathervanes album, he rolls with a stash of vintage Fenders and Gibsons that would make even the least gear-motivated among us blush. That's not to mention his enviable traveling amp and effect closets. Isbell invited Perry Bean and the PG team to the Ryman for a look at his current touring rig and that of Sadler Vaden, the band's ripping co-guitarist whose relatively more modest collection is still quite the enviable one!Brought to you by D'Addario:https://ddar.io/wykyk-rrhttps://www.daddario.com/XPNDRR

Ha sido un año en el que los cambios se han reflejado con claridad en las propuestas de nuestros artistas favoritos, siendo en cierta forma el espejo de una sociedad como la norteamericana, con cambios constantes y una polarización evidente en la que los compositores y los músicos toman partido como nunca antes había ocurrido dando cuenta de todo aquello que ocurre cotidianamente a su alrededor, como ocurría en los comienzos de la historia de la música tradicional. Es un regreso a las raíces en toda regla. En este último podcast del año queremos compartir una docena de canciones que significan a la perfección el espíritu de RADIO CON BOTAS y que han tomado el pulso a la Americana a lo largo de este 2023 que se acaba. 01-ISRAEL NASH “Ozarker” (Nash) Soundly Israel Nash es un músico capaz de que el término “cinematográfico” sirva para describir a la perfección buena parte de sus canciones y de su forma de interpretarlas. Nacido y criado en Missouri, pasó por Nueva York y en 2011 se mudó a Texas, construyendo un estudio de grabación en Dripping Springs. Pero para construir las canciones de este nuevo trabajo se trasladó a un pueblo cercano donde realizó las primeras maquetas con una guitarra, un viejo teclado Casio y una grabadora de cuatro pistas. En 10 días lo modeló en su estudio y viajó a Los Angeles para completarlo. Como indica su título, Ozarker, el décimo segundo de su recorrido, Israel Nash rinde homenaje a sus raíces en Ozark, una ciudad del estado de Missouri de poco más de 20.000 habitantes cuyo nombre tiene que ver con las Ozark mountains, en las que encuentra refugio para compartir historias impregnadas de los íntimos sentimientos de sus paisanos y de sus familiares más cercanos, lo que supone un cierto regreso a casa. Así lo hace en su tema central, contando la historia de su bisabuelo, un trabajador migrante que se enamoró de la hija del dueño de un huerto en el que trabajaba. Cumplió su promesa de regresar para casarse con ella y le estaba esperando sentada allí, en las escaleras de la entrada, con un vestido que guardo en la maleta para irse. Todo ello con una fuerte influencia de los modos de Springsteen para envolver sus historias. De hecho, en esta colección de diez canciones muy personales, Israel Nash hace evidentes guiños al Boss, Bob Seger y Tom Petty, sin olvidar a su siempre reverenciado Neil Young. El resultado es una especie de homenaje a las melodías que hemos escuchado en grandes himnos del rock, que podremos escuchar en la segunda mitad de febrero en su gira por seis ciudades españolas. 02-CHRIS STAPLETON “The Bottom” (Stapleton) Mercury Nashville La edad y la experiencia suelen proporcionar sabiduría y en el caso de Chris Stapleton es mucho más que evidente. Hace ocho años editó su álbum de debut álbum titulado Traveller, después de recorrer distintos caminos, desde ser escritor de canciones en Nashville durante décadas, formar parte de un grupo fundamental dentro del bluegrass como los Steeldrivers y, por fin, aventurarse a iniciar una carrera en solitario. En la actualidad nadie duda que el músico de Kentucky ha hecho que la country music esté recuperando carácter y, sobre todo, alma. Esa que había perdido por culpa de la industria afincada en Nashville. Además, lo ha conseguido desde dentro, ganando ocho Grammys y una tonelada de premios, entre los que destacan los de la Country Music Association y la Academy of Country Music. Su carrera tiene mucho de redención para un género construido desde la tradición y las raíces, y desnortado por las manos que mandan en Music Row. Su omnipresencia en muy diversos proyectos en los últimos años daba muestras de estar en gran forma, pero iba creciendo la casi necesidad de un nuevo álbum que diera continuación al contundente Starting Over de 2020. Cuando recibimos los primeros anticipos entendimos que Chris Stapleton sigue siendo un artista imprescindible, con una capacidad narrativa impecable. Chris Stapleton acaba de lanzar su nuevo álbum, Higher, un profundo disco de country soul que ha producido junto a su mujer Morgane y Dave Cobb, con la exquisitez de la que siempre han hecho gala. Está hecho a mano, con el cuidado y la entrega necesaria para que la espera haya merecido, y mucho, la pena. La característica fundamental de este trabajo es reafirmarse, por si alguien pudiera tener alguna duda, de la importancia que Morgane tiene en su vida. Hay quien ha dicho que son los Johnny & June del presente y no parece que se haya equivocado. Comparten un amor inquebrantable, una tranquila confianza y seguridad además de una admiración mutua que se manifiesta en una poderosa energía creativa. Stapleton ha querido ir más alla del estereotipo que relaciona el country y el alcohol en las zonas rurales de Estados Unidos y de forma muy especial tras una ruptura amorosa llegando a la angustia que destila, nunca mejor dicho, “The Bottom”. 03-TURNPIKE TROUBADOURS “Chipping Mill” (Edwards/Roark) Bossier City En mayo de 2019 Turnpike Troubadours se habían tomado una pausa mientras Evan Felker, su líder, se recuperaba de su adicción al alcohol y a otros problemas personales. La banda de Oklahoma nos había dejados huérfanos de un sonido esplendoroso desde que el álbum A Long Way From Your Heart, se lanzó en el 17. Producido por el legendario Shooter Jennings en los míticos estudios FAME de Muscle Shoals y rematado en Los Ángeles, A Cat in the Rain, apareció también el pasado verano con una colección de diez canciones nuevas y dos versiones inesperadas que nos reencontraba con el mejor sonido de la Red Dirt Music. “Chipping Mill”, que compusieron R.C. Edwards, bajista y socio fundador de los Troubadours, y Lance Roark, colaborador habitual del grupo, es uno de los momentos magistrales en los que se hace notar el protagonismo del fiddle de Kyle Nix respaldando esa voz siempre reconocible de Evan Felker. Es el recuerdo de una relación rota que deja para la interpretación el cómo y el por qué, con el sentimiento mantenido de que “Siempre guardé lo mejor para ti". 04-OLD CROW MEDICINE SHOW feat. WILLIE WATSON “Miles Away” (Secor/Tuttle) ATO Si te encuentras con algún amigo o amante perdido Y solo ves restos de reticencia Agarra el cuerno de la silla de montar y estira tu cuerpo No dejes que el pasado tome las riendas Aprovecha la oportunidad de decir te quiero Incluso si sientes que es algo tarde. Porque antes de que te des cuenta, justo al final, el camino girará a millas de distancia Old Crow Medicine Show publicaron en el verano un nuevo trabajo, Jubilee, donde mantienen su sonido tradicional para contar el presente del mundo en que vivimos, con sus problemas, sus enfrentamientos y su cariño por las tierras del Sur. En él pudieron contar con colaboraciones tan sobresalientes como las de Mavis Staples, Sierra Hull y Willie Watson. La canción que destacó desde su primera escucha fue “Miles Away”, que Ketch Secor creó junto a la siempre brillante Molly Tuttle y en la que ha contado con la voz de Willie Watson, que fuera cofundador de los Crow allá por 1998. Es una mirada por el retrovisor donde, como dice el texto que suele figurar en él, todo está más cerca de lo que parece. Ha pasado un cuarto de siglo desde que Old Crow Medicine Show se creó en Nashville como una banda de cuerda que hacía old-time, folk y un country alternativo con cierta estética punk. Y para mirar atrás era preciso recuperar a Willie Watson más de 10 años después de su marcha. 05-TYLER CHILDERS “In Your Love” (Seale/Childers) Hickman Holler/RCA Desde la publicación de Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven?, un disco triple con diferentes remixes de ocho canciones de góspel, estábamos esperando nuevas noticias de Tyler Childers, un tipo de Lawrence County, en Kentucky, que siempre sorprende. A primeros de septiembre llegó Rustin' In The Rain, grabado con los Food Stamos en el estudio casero del guitarrista de este sexteto de apoyo, James Barker. Son principalmente canciones de amor entre las que hay algunas versiones, algún tema co-escrito y una sensación de libertad y disfrute con las actividades habituales de su granja. En una canción del nivel de “In Your Love”, que debería ser un éxito radiofónico en un mundo perfecto, está acompañado por un espléndido vídeo protagonizado por los actores Colton Haynes y James Scully en los papeles de dos mineros del carbón de los años 50 que se enamoran. Hay que recordar que Tyler Childers escribe frecuentemente sobre las minas del carbón, que fue la ocupación de su padre. Y que, disco a disco, consolida su reputación como una de las voces más importantes de estos tiempos. 06-ZACH BRYAN “Pain, Sweet, Pain” (Bryan) Belting Bronco/Warner Artistas como Zach Bryan están poniendo un enorme signo de interrogación a la industria musical que se refugia en el bunker monolítico de una escena obsoleta, casi siempre asentada en Nashville, con las mismas lentejuelas que criticaba Johnny Cash hace décadas. Los datos son irrefutables: Este chaval de 27 años nacido en Oklahoma ha metido las 16 canciones de su último álbum, de título homónimo, entre las primeras 50 de las listas. Su musical preseva las raíces, oscilando entre el country, el folk y el rock con una naturalidad apabullante. No desdeña invitar a The War and Treaty, Sierra Ferrell, los Lumineers o Kacey Musgraves a sus grabaciones, ni lanzar un simple EP de cinco canciones menos de un mes después de publicar su último álbum que ha llamdo Boys of Faith y que es el resultado de encerrarse durante una semana en el estudio, componer y compartir el tiempo con las gentes y los paisajes que tiene una significación especial en su vida. En dos de los temas ha contado con Bon Iver y Noah Kahan. Es como una mirada nostálgica al pasado representada a la perfección con eñ tema de cierre, que llevaba mucho tiempo interpretado en sus conciertos pero que no había llegado a grabar. Se trata de “Pain, Sweet Pain”. 07-MOLLY TUTTLE & GOLDEN HIGHWAY “El Dorado” (Tuttle/Secor) Nonesuch Hace siete años que asistimos al debut de Molly Tuttle y su progresión ha corroborado las expectativas desde que escuchamos su primer EP, gracias al cual la International Bluegrass Music Association la premió como Guitarrista del Año, siendo la primera mujer en conseguirlo y repitiendo al año siguiente, cuando editaba el primero de los cuatro álbumes que la han llevado a ampliar horizontes. El último de esos registros, City of Gold, lo acaba de editar junto a Golden Highway y es la continuación de Crooked Tree, por el que se llevó un Grammy al mejor disco de bluegrass. Molly Tuttle tiene el género de Kentucky impreso en la piel gracias a ser hija de Jack Tuttle, con cuya banda tocó con tan solo 15 años. Sin embargo, ella es californiana y Molly Tuttle en esta nueva entrega ha vuelto a dejarse atrapar por esas influencias de la Costa Oeste que abarcan de la psicodelia al folk pasando por los contadores de historias. El tema de apertura, compuesto con Ketch Secor de Old Crow Medicine Show, es “El Dorado”, inspirado en la fiebre del oro, que ella establece como un sentimiento parecido al de la música que la sedujo desde niña. La producción de Jerry Douglas vuelve a resaltar la emotividad de cada nota. 08-MARGO CILKER “Mother Told Her Mother Told Me” (Cilker) Fluff and Gravy Uno de los mejores ejemplos de la resiliencia de las mujeres es el de Margo Cilker, a quien conocimos por su visita a Euskadi en 2016 y de quien hablamos hace un par de años cuendo editó su álbum Pohorylle (POJORIL), convertido en uno de nuestros favoritos de entonces. Su continuación es Valley of Heart's Delight, que tiene que ver con que ella es la quinta generación familiar nacida en ese Valle de Santa Clara, en California, que todos conocemos como Sillicon Valley. Son once canciones con la familia y la naturaleza como protagonistas de historias personales que unen buena parte de los paisajes que su alma viajera ha recorrido y que son casi siempre la inspiración de sus composiciones y el contar con su mentora, la productora, baterista, compositora y veterana de la escena indie Sera Cahoone, como apoyo inigualable. La variedad emocional es una de las características más evidentes de esta nueva propuesta, hablando de lo común y cotidiano. Así ocurre en "Lowland Trail" donde mantiene un arrope sonoro bastante austero, aunque todo suena con una brillantez natural que recuerda el ambiente de los patios traseros de los hogares. "Lowland Trail", es un tema que parece bañado por el sol y tiene que ver con las labores en un rancho de ganado, donde nos encontramos a Margo Cilker rodeada de los paisajes del noroeste, meditando sobre su propio sentido de pertenencia y transportándonos a una época anterior al boom tecnológico. 09-MARGO PRICE “Unoriginal Sin” (Price/Campbell) Loma Vista/Concord Strays, el más completo y sugerente álbum de la carrera de Margo Price, es una fusión de country, rock, folk y música americana que la artista de Aledo, en Illinois, decidió entregar en dos tomas y, además dividir a su vez la segunda en tres. El segundo capítulo de la segunda parte de este proyecto, Act II: Mind Travel, nos dejo algunos momentos sublimes como es el caso de “Unoriginal Sin”, donde se acompaña por la guitarra de texturas “harrisonianas” de Mike Campbell, que ha compuesto la canción con ella. Producida por Jonathan Wilson, es una pieza que inspirada también en las experiencias con los hongos, sigue escarbando en los rincones oscuros del tiempo y el espacio a modo de viaje psicodélico, con la musicalidad de la vieja escuela. Margo decidió hace tiempo que quiere que la gente la tome en serio como compositora y sabe que siendo mujer tiene que trabajar mucho más duro para demostrar una valía innegable. 10-KASSI VALAZZA “Room In The City” (Valazza/Sigler) Fluff And Gravy Kassi Valazza es nativa de Chino Valley, la que fuera primera capital territorial de Arizona, y la música del desierto tiene una lenta tonalidad propia de los indios que aún perduran en aquellos parajes. Aunque ella se haya trasladado hasta Portland, en Oregon, mantiene viva la naturalidad de ese mundo, combinada con un sonido que toma prestado del folk inglés de Sandy Denny y el country and western, al que añade toques de psicodelia en sus márgenes. Manteniendo esa sensación de quietud en la envoltura de las canciones de su segundo álbum, Knows Nothing, que da continuación a su debut de 2019 Dear Dead Days, las letras sí que parecen ir ahora a una velocidad casi endiablada. Los versos dan la impresión de haber sido escritos a mano por su inmediatez y franqueza, poniendo en primer plano las realidades de las relaciones sentimentales, a veces tan contradictorias como difíciles de describir y más aún de compartir. Kassy Valazza grabó todo este nuevo disco en vivo, con el respaldo de TK and The Holy Know-Nothings, un quinteto liderado por Taylor Kingman con sede en Portland que no deberías dejar pasar. La banda escuchó las canciones por primera vez en el estudio y eso permitió que apareciera la magia y sucediera lo inesperado, como ocurre en como enfrentarse a las emociones del final de una relación en “Room In The City”, una delicia que nos animó a soñar con una posible visita, que se hizo realidad el pasado mes de noviembre y que no podremos olvidar. 11-DYLAN LEBLANC “Coyote” (LeBlanc) ATO Barre mis cenizas No soy del tipo que envejece Me voy a una nueva tierra Voy a robar el oro de un hombre rico. Voy a tomar lo que es mío Que la Santa Muerte se lleve mi alma. Así es “Coyote”, el tema central del último álbum de Dylan LeBlanc, que supuso un nuevo paso en el ascenso de un músico de amplios horizontes y profundas convicciones sonoras y personales. Con una tonalidad vocal que siempre nos recuerda a un juvenil Neil Young, Dylan LeBlanc nos regalará a finales de octubre un disco conceptual con tintes autobiográficos que narra la crónica de un hombre que vive siempre al límite. El músico de Shreveport (shriport), Louisiana, visitó ocho ciudades españolas en noviembre siendo el protagonista de los mejores conciertos en pequeño formato de este 2023, donde estuvo acompañado por su padre, James LeBlanc, de quien ha tomado buena parte de sus enseñanzas. Dylan tomó el camino del romanticismo a la hora de estrenarse en este mundillo y su espíritu nómada y vagabundo es lo que parece haberle relacionado ahora con la figura del coyote, confiado a su instinto para sobrevivir. El álbum se enfrenta a la naturaleza humana y al materialismo con el arrepentimiento de una vida desperdiciada, más interesado en representar lo que existe que en juzgarlo. En él se manifiesta que LeBlanc comprende, por experiencia propia, lo que significa vivir en el mundo de hoy. 12-JASON ISBELL AND THE 400 UNIT “Cast Iron Skilett” (Isbell) Southeastern/Thirty Tigers Si Crazy Horse o los Heartbreakers han sido imprescindibles para Neil Young o Tom Petty, 400 Unit lo es para Jason Isbell, uno de los más revelantes compositores de la Americana en cualquiera de sus sentidos. Acompañado por ellos, el músico de Green Hill, en Alabama, ha tomado el papel de contador de historias en la forma más clásica del término y cuenta, por ejemplo, que si romantizamos el pasado no podremos aprender de él. Esa es una buena parte de la filosofía que envuelve su último álbum, Weathervanes, con una docena de composiones grabadas en el Blackbird Studio de Nashville, que interiorizan el tiempo vivido y el aprendizaje, procurando superar lo peor del Sur, incluyendo sus mitos y leyendas, e intentando construir algo nuevo y mejor . En "Cast Iron Skillet", uno de los momentos más destacados del mismo, realata como fue su aprendizaje de la vida mientras creció en la zona rural de Alabama. Jason Isbell ha hecho a l largo de este año su debut como actor en Killers of the Flower Moon de Martin Scorsese, protagonizada por Leonardo Dicaprio y Robert De Niro y absolutamente recomendable. SIERRA FERRELL “The Garden” (Ferrell/ Craven) Geffen La hemos escuchado abarcar casi todas las propuestas de la Americana y colaborar con algunos de sus grandes nombres, como Margo Price, Brooks Forsyth o Zach Bryan. Es Sierra Ferrell, un prodigio a la hora de ensamblar las distintas propuestas de la tradición sonora y de la que esperamos un nuevo álbum en el inminente 2024. El violín y la guitarra son sus aliados naturales para envolver una voz de altísimas prestaciones y dejar canciones de la talla de “The Garden”, que forma parte de la banda sonora de la precuela de Los Juegos del Hambre. Se trata de un tema que viene interpretando desde hace tiempo y que, a diferencia de los demás incluidos en la película, ha sido producido por Eddie Spear y Gary Paczosa.

After years of admiring Jason Isbell's gifts as a songwriter and storyteller, I finally got to ask the alt-country artist about his earliest sparks of creativity, and it was fascinating to hear his memories of sitting on the front porch, singing with members of his extended family during weekly Sunday evening gatherings, and of listening to his Pentecostal preacher grandfather playing guitar, and introducing him to gospel and mountain songs and bluegrass and the blues. "Music was something that was presented to me as something that was directly tied with family," he says. "The way creative pursuits were presented to me, it was something people did because it made them feel better, and because they could control the machines. And they had grown up very poor and didn't have control over much else. I think that combination of lack of options and just a genuine love for the way the arts were presented to me from the beginning culminated in my identifying with it so closely. And then something sort of made me a fool. Something in there somewhere told me to actually pursue this to the ends of the earth if I had to. That's the part I don't exactly understand." Isbell also talks about his love for Hendrix and Pearl Jam, about the lessons he learned from teaching guitar in his early twenties, how his songwriting process has evolved, and more. Jason and his band the 400 Unit are playing shows at Nashville's legendary Ryman Auditorium this week and have additional US dates early next year. Following the awesome new Isbell & The 400 Unit album Weathervanes earlier this year, he recently put out a deluxe, 10th anniversary reissue of 2013's Southeastern. You can get a copy, and tickets for the upcoming date, here. Isbell can also be seen in the new Martin Scorsese film Killers of the Flower Moon.

In this week's episode, Sid Evans, Editor-in-Chief of Southern Living Magazine, chats with Jason Isbell, a four-time Grammy-Award-winner who's known as one of the best songwriters of his generation. Jason Isbell was born to parents who were still teenagers in a small town in North Alabama, and as a result he spent a lot of time with his grandfather, who was a Pentecostal preacher and a guitar player. By high school he was immersed in the music culture of Muscle Shoals, and in his early 20s he was playing to sold out crowds with the Drive By Truckers. As a solo artist, Isbell has become known as a poet of the rural South who's not afraid to speak his mind. Now he's got a terrific new album called ‘Weathervanes,' a collection of songs that continue his tradition of storytelling with an edge. He'll also discuss his grandmother's cornbread, how to ring a chicken's neck, and his experience as an actor in Martin Scorsese's upcoming movie, ‘Killers of the Flower Moon.'

It's “Three for Thursday” as Jay brings us three new releases to check out. First up, Jason Isbell released his ninth studio album, “Weathervanes,” this past week. It's a calmer and more intimate sounding record than some of his previous and is getting great reviews from past critics. Next up we have a reordered & amended reissue titled "The Complete Dirty South" by The Drive-By Truckers. Comprised of songs from their 2004 album “The Dirty South,” but in a different track order and with some new songs added. Jay received his special edition vinyl prior to the actually release date, so we're getting some early hot takes. Finally we give Bob Dylan's latest (surprise) album "Shadow Kingdom" a listen. The album features re-recorded versions of past songs and there's a movie too? Apparently there is, and apparently it's awesome.Songs:Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit - "Death Wish"Drive-by Truckers - "TVA"Bob Dylan - "Watching the River Flow"Nick came across a NY Times story about the adoption of A.I. technology within the classical music world. From classical singer Jen Wang's performance Alvin Lucier's “The Duke of York” accompanied by a digital rendition of her voice, to composer Robert Laidlow's “Silicon,” which incorporates various technologies throughout the movements of the piece, to the music designed by George E. Lewis for the last four decades, the article presents a conservative genre exploring controversial aspects of music's relationship to technology. There was plenty to discuss…Song: Huntertones - “Stede”Finally, Greg is excited to announce that because Manchester City completed the treble this past weekend, Liam Gallagher will have to make good on his tweets and reunite with brother Noel for an Oasis reunion. Then the bickering and taunts commenced and now they're at each other's throats again…freakin brothers. Nevertheless, we haven't talked much about the band Oasis and decided now was the time!Songs:Oasis - “Supersonic (Live at Knebworth 1996)”Oasis - “Champagne Supernova (alternate take)”Episode 201 Page

This week Oliver shares his thoughts on Weathervanes, the new record from alternative country and Americana powerhouse Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. Also, new live releases from funky instrumental trio Khruangbin. Follow @asonicyouthpodcast on Insta and Facebook. This show is part of the Free FM 89.0 YOUTH ZONE. Made with support of NZ on Air.

Jason Isbell's last album, Georgia Blue, featuring covers and collaborations for charity, was released after Joe Biden won the state in the 2020 presidential election. It followed Reunions, an album of original songs released in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the making of which was captured in the recent HBO documentary, "Running With Our Eyes Closed." Now the singer-songwriter and his band The 400 Unit have a new album out, Weathervanes. The self-produced release is Isbell's first time without super-producer Dave Cobb since his 2013 breakthrough, Southeastern. Isbell joins for a Listening Party.

For the first of a duo of Record Clubs covering seminal albums released on June 11, 2013, we're delighted to finally get to talk in depth about the most beloved album from an artist who has defined our friendship and connection through music: Jason Isbell. As his magnum opus Southeastern celebrates a decade, we break down everything that makes the album resonant and affecting, as well as Jason's craft more broadly. Stick around for our review of Isbell's new album Weathervanes next week! Let us know what Southeastern means to you in the comments on YouTube.

Brian Wise's guest in this podcast is Jason Isbell. To call Isbell the King Of Americana is not an idle claim. Since 2009 he has won 9 Americana Awards and been nominated for another ten - to add to his four Grammy Awards! Born and raised in Alabama and got a publishing deal with Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals when he was just 21, joined Paterson Hood in the Drive By Truckers and after five years began his solo career which included forming the 400 Unit and releasing 8 albums, the latest of which is Weathervanes, which follows the album Georgia Blue in 2021. Brian first spoke to Isbell when he was in Australia for the first time with Justin Townes Earle in 2012 and they have chatted frequently since. Last year they caught up by Zoom to talk about the Fender Jason Isbell Signature model while Isbell was on the set of Martin Scorsese's latest film Killers of the Flower Moon in which he plays the role of farmer Bill Smith.  This time Brian and Jason met to talk about the new album Weathervanes prior to Isbell's show at the Palais in Melbourne during his April tour of Australia with the 400 Unit, supported by Allison Russell.

In this week's episode, Sid Evans, Editor-in-Chief of Southern Living Magazine, chats with Jason Isbell, , a four-time Grammy-Award-winner who's known as one of the best songwriters of his generation. Jason Isbell was born to parents who were still teenagers in a small town in North Alabama, and as a result he spent a lot of time with his grandfather, who was a Pentecostal preacher and a guitar player. By high school he was immersed in the music culture of Muscle Shoals, and in his early 20s he was playing to sold out crowds with the Drive By Truckers. As a solo artist, Isbell has become known as a poet of the rural South who's not afraid to speak his mind. Now he's got a terrific new album called ‘Weathervanes,' a collection of songs that continue his tradition of storytelling with an edge. They'll also discuss his grandmother's cornbread, how to ring a chicken's neck, and his experience as an actor in Martin Scorsese's upcoming movie, ‘Killers of the Flower Moon.'

Let's get into it: COLORADO NEWSLINE: Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signs four gun control bills into lawGOVERNMENTBY: SARA WILSON - APRIL 28, 2023 11:54 AMThe Governor, surrounded by gun-control advocates at a bill signing ceremony said, “Coloradans deserve to be safe in our communities, in our schools, our grocery stores, nightclubs and everywhere in between,” The new laws raise the minimum age to buy a gun to 21, impose a three-day waiting period for gun purchases, expand the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law and make it easier for gun violence survivors to sue the gun industry.Under Senate Bill 23-170, district attorneys, educators, mental health professionals and other medical providers will be able to petition a judge to confiscate guns from a potentially dangerous person. Previously, only law enforcement and family members had that power under the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law, also known as the red flag law, which was created in 2019.The expansion aims to increase utilization of the process and extend the petition authority to people who interact with an at-risk person regularly. It is a recognition that some law enforcement officials have been reluctant to use the red flag law when potentially appropriate due to concerns over the Second Amendment.Senate Bill 23-169 raises the age to purchase any gun to 21 years old. Previously, the age restriction was 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun. There are exceptions for members of law enforcement and the military.House Bill 23-1219 imposes a three-day waiting period for people to get a gun after they pay for it. Bill sponsors said that the delayed access to firearms will provide a cooling-off period for people in crisis who might harm themselves or others.Cities will be able to establish longer waiting periods if they choose. If the purchaser's background check takes longer than three days — which it rarely does — they would still need to wait until the background check clears to get their gun.Finally, Senate Bill 23-168 removes a state protection for gun and ammunition dealers and manufactures against lawsuits. Previously, plaintiffs had to pay the legal fees for defendants in dismissed cases involving gun sellers. That is no longer the case.The law makes the gun industry susceptible to lawsuits under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act.bill sponsor Sen. Sonya Jaquez Lewis, a Longmont Democrat, said, “​​We finally, after 23 years of waiting, can open up Colorado courtrooms to gun violence victims and survivors seeking justice,” Less than an hour after the bill signing, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners leader Taylor Rhodes announced on Twitter that the group had already filed lawsuits challenging the minimum age requirement and waiting period laws. He said they are seeking plaintiffs who could establish standing against the other two new laws.Lawmakers are also considering a bill that would outlaw unserialized firearms, also known as ghost guns. Another firearm bill that would have banned semi-automatic weapons in the state died in its first committee hearing last week.The Legislature adjourns on May 8.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado lawmakers stand with Zooey ZephyrDemocratic state Rep. Brianna Titone of Arvada led over 75 Colorado elected officials - including two Republicans - in sending a letter to Montana lawmakers condemning the removal of Rep. Zooey Zephyr and calling for her to be allowed back in the Montana House chamber.In the letter, Rep. Titone said the removal was an attempt to erase trans people amid growing violence against them and an increase in anti-trans laws being passed in state legislatures.Titone said “As elected officials, it is our responsibility to act with integrity and defend our democracy, and we are deeply concerned with erosion of democratic norms we see proliferating in statehouses across the country. Regardless of your personal stance on these issues, she is still a colleague and a duly elected and sworn representative of the people of Montana. Her voice is no less important than yours.”The letter was joined by two Republican lawmakers, state Reps. Ron Weinberg of Loveland and Rick Taggart of Grand Junction.On Tuesday, Montana House Republicans posted a notice announcing they would take up disciplinary measures against Zephyr, Montana's first openly transgender representative, after she said that legislators who voted for a bill that bans gender-affirming care for minors would have blood on their hands, in reference to suicide rates among trans youth. The Montana House voted along party lines Wednesday to bar Zephyr from entering the House floor or gallery for the remainder of the legislative session, only allowing her to participate in votes via Zoom.Rep. Titone made history in 2018 when she was elected the first openly transgender state legislator in Colorado. As chair of the Colorado Legislative LGBTQ caucus, she's worked alongside members of the House and Senate to expand and protect LGBTQ rights in the state.In the letter, Titone applauded Zephyr for her efforts in the Montana Legislature, saying that she has “placed a spotlight of truth on the very real damage anti-trans legislation could have on Montanans who are already struggling with discrimination and growing fear of physical harm.”The Montana state legislative session ends on May 10, and Zephyr is unlikely to be reinstated before the end of the session. Aside from state Rep. Brianna Titone, here are the elected officials from Colorado who signed Titone's letter to the Members of the Montana House of Representatives:Statewide officials:Colorado Secretary of State Jena GriswoldColorado State Treasurer Dave YoungColorado state senators and representatives:House Speaker Julie McCluskieSenate President Steve FenbergHouse Majority Leader Monica DuranSenate Majority Leader Dominick MorenoRep.

The group is part of a national movement built on the idea that a local sheriff's power supersedes that of higher government entities including the U.S. president and the U.S. Supreme Court, and that sheriffs have a duty to nullify laws they interpret as unconstitutional.The civil rights and advocacy organizations highlighted numerous connections between the CSPOA and a variety of hate groups, with the NAACP denouncing some CSPOA members as “prominent antisemites, QAnon conspiracists, white nationalists and neo-confederates.”Sarah Kader, community manager for ADL Arizona, a state-level branch of a national organization that combats hate groups in the U.S., wrote “If the revised rule goes into effect, we fear that domestic extremists, based on their previous actions, will rush to take advantage of the opportunity,” Rachel Goldwasser, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, warned that the rule change could be used as a blueprint for creating workarounds allowing extremist organizations to train law enforcement in other states.Neither the governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs nor the attorney general, Democrat Kris Mayes, directly addressed concerns about neo-confederates and other domestic extremists running law enforcement trainings.ADL confirmed it did not receive a response from Gov. Hobbs' office until after the rule change took effect, though a spokesperson indicated the group had “every reason to believe that the Governor's office understands the concerns we have raised in our letters and is taking them seriously.” In their letters, ADL, SPLC and the NAACP all expressed concerns that more than half of Arizona sheriffs are at least partially aligned with the constitutional sheriff movement—connections AZCIR highlighted in its 2022 reporting.Rachel Goldwasser of SPLC said “Arizona has a large extremist presence in the Legislature, sheriffs' offices and among the public, unfortunately. They'll exploit any opportunity for these extremists to spread their ideology.”Three of the four letters also issued a warning about Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has known ties to CSPOA and is the frontman for Protect America Now, another so-called “constitutional sheriff” organization.Lamb, who announced a bid for the U.S. Senate in April, has developed a national presence by appearing on a slew of fringe right-wing news networks and podcasts, including those espousing QAnon conspiracies. Lamb did not respond to a request for comment.Sarah Kader of ADL said “In recent years, extreme ideologies have been mainstreamed and normalized at an alarming pace. This is due in large part to the growing number of elected officials and other high-profile individuals who traffic in conspiracies and hate.”This article first appeared on Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and is republished here under a Creative Commons license.DENVER WESTWORD: How Hard Can it Bee? ZzzzzzBee Here Now: Capella Ranch Has a Honey of an IdeaCATIE CHESHIRE APRIL 25, 2023 6:53AMIn countries like Germany and Slovenia, inhaling the aerosol created by bees in an apiary, or collection of beehives, is an authorized treatment for respiratory diseases. But in the United States, there are only three places that offer the experience: one in Georgia, one in Michigan, and Capella Ranch in Lafayette Colorado, which just opened for its second season.Carolyn Peterson, who owns the ranch with her family said “I'm going to be out here all summer, talking to people and enjoying them and hearing their stories. They're going to come stressed out, and then they're going to leave relaxed.”Capella Ranch currently has sheep, Nigerian dwarf goats, Nubian goats, ducks, chickens, a few turkeys and, of course, bees, the first of which arrived in 2018. To create their bee therapy Shangri-la, the Petersons started by building two cedar huts shaped like irregular pentagons. The cedar contributes to the aroma in the huts, although its durability in the Colorado weather is its chief asset here. The slanted roof of the hut concentrates the aerosol so people can breathe it in while they're lying flat. “Everyone comes out with a different experience,” Carolyn says. “They get in there. They lie down. They take in the whole thing, and then they just sort of concentrate on the humming of the bees.”When bees make honey, there's a lot of water in it at first, so the insects work to reduce the moisture content by flapping their wings. As it evaporates, the moisture is carried into the air to form an aerosol that people find therapeutic.The bees also create an electromagnetic field with their vibration, which is at a frequency that's calming to the human parasympathetic nervous system - a network of nerves that helps relax the body. Some people can feel the field, but most notice the smell first. Underneath the scent of cedar, there is the aromatic tang of the bees at work. Almost like the smell of a newborn baby, but with an extra oomph.“That is all the pollen, nectars, amino acids and essential oils that the bees are bringing in to make the honey,” Carolyn says. “It's just kind of an odd smell, and it's supposed to be very good to breathe in.”In Slovenia, the bee experience has been used to calm firefighters after hard jobs, children who have behavioral problems at school, and parents of those children, who might need some relaxation as well. The Petersons note that they aren't medical professionals, so they don't consider their huts medicinal.“If it happens to help, great,” Carolyn says. “It's relaxing. It's thirty minutes of nobody bugging you.”One person who says the bee huts have helped is Marsha Ruggeri, who lives in Lafayette. She went to Capella Ranch four times during its inaugural season.She first came with a friend who'd bought a deal on Groupon. After struggling with heightened asthma symptoms the past two years — which she attributes to wildfires and air pollution — Ruggeri was excited to learn of a potential way to alleviate her symptoms.And, it worked!“I'm not saying it was a panacea,” she says. “It felt like I was actually doing something that wasn't an inhaler or medication and I was regaining some control over how my body was reacting to all this shit in the air.”On Ruggeri's third visit, she experienced the electromagnetic field produced by the bees.“I was laying on my side, and then all of a sudden, I could feel it,” she says. “It really deserves more than one treatment. It's kind of like people who go for acupuncture, and they're like, ‘Well, it didn't do anything for me.' You really need to try it more than once.”Along with the eight hives in the huts, there are six to eight more near a special pond on the ranch where the bees drink. Last summer, over a hundred people came to Capella Ranch to check out the bees; a TikTok Charlie made announcing that the huts were open has gained about 20,000 views.One of those visitors, a reiki and yoga teacher from Fort Collins named Yarmey, found Capella Ranch on Instagram. “I'm really interested in energy and grounding and our connection to nature,” she says. Reiki is a practice of directing energy to help facilitate healing.After her first visit, Yarmey came back a second time, when she says she was really able to share a meditative space with the bees, reveling in their presence in a way that humans rarely get to do with other species.“When else in your life do you get to share space with a million other beings who all are very clear about their purpose and their path and what they need to be doing? Everything felt a little slower, more grounded.”The huts are now open for a second season; anyone is welcome except those allergic to bee or wasp stings. A thirty-minute session is $35; an hour runs $60. CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEKDENVER POST: Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with Angel Olsen - this Thursday and Friday night at Red Rocks.By JOHN WENZEL | jwenzel@denverpost.com | The Denver PostApril 28, 2023 at 6:00 a.m.Jason Isbell's voice can be a strapping, mournful thing, muscular and dripping with vulnerability as he chronicles his life in song. And on this day, it's still waking up.“This time of year I drink my black coffee cold so I can get it down quicker,” the 44-year-old singer-songwriter said over the phone from his Nashville porch on Monday. “I've spent so many years working late at night that it makes it hard for me to get on with normal life. It's tough, you know? But I think it's tough no matter how you do it.”Isbell's family and acclaimed music career test his resolve while giving him motivation to stay sober and productive. He has won a quartet of Grammy Awards since 2018 — about a decade after getting kicked out of his former alt-country band, Drive-By Truckers, for drinking and drugs In the HBO Max documentary “Music Box: Jason Isbell — Running with Our Eyes Closed,” which was released on April 7, we're afforded a close-up on his life as he records the album “Reunions” with his band, the 400 Unit. His intimate musical and romantic partnership with wife Amanda Shires (who is an acclaimed solo artist herself), his love of his daughter Mercy Rose, his past divorce, and the shock of the pandemic are all there in vivid cross-section.“If you're a recording artist or entertainer with any kind of success, you don't want to spend too much time looking back,” said Isbell, who was born in Green Hill, Ala., to a 17-year-old mother. “It's a self-centered way of living. But one thing I was surprised by watching the (documentary) is that I'd forgotten how hard those old days were, growing up where I did and having addiction issues. It was nice to see but painful to watch, that all of this was real and really happened to me, even if it's long in the rearview.”Isbell will headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre May 3 and 4 with the 400 Unit, on tour for their new album “Weathervanes,” to be released June 9. The lead single “Death Wish” has already been covered by Jack White and featured on “American Idol.” Isbell's melodies channel Americana, folk, country, and rock and roll. His lyrics are cutting, urgent, and full of visceral metaphors. On “Death Wish,” he sings:“I wanted action, she wanted answers / Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers / It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid.”Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit With Angel Olsen, Two shows, May 3 and 4, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

Sonya Jaquez Lewis, a Longmont Democrat, said, “​​We finally, after 23 years of waiting, can open up Colorado courtrooms to gun violence victims and survivors seeking justice,” Less than an hour after the bill signing, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners leader Taylor Rhodes announced on Twitter that the group had already filed lawsuits challenging the minimum age requirement and waiting period laws. He said they are seeking plaintiffs who could establish standing against the other two new laws.Lawmakers are also considering a bill that would outlaw unserialized firearms, also known as ghost guns. Another firearm bill that would have banned semi-automatic weapons in the state died in its first committee hearing last week.The Legislature adjourns on May 8.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado lawmakers stand with Zooey ZephyrDemocratic state Rep. Brianna Titone of Arvada led over 75 Colorado elected officials - including two Republicans - in sending a letter to Montana lawmakers condemning the removal of Rep. Zooey Zephyr and calling for her to be allowed back in the Montana House chamber.In the letter, Rep. Titone said the removal was an attempt to erase trans people amid growing violence against them and an increase in anti-trans laws being passed in state legislatures.Titone said “As elected officials, it is our responsibility to act with integrity and defend our democracy, and we are deeply concerned with erosion of democratic norms we see proliferating in statehouses across the country. Regardless of your personal stance on these issues, she is still a colleague and a duly elected and sworn representative of the people of Montana. Her voice is no less important than yours.”The letter was joined by two Republican lawmakers, state Reps. Ron Weinberg of Loveland and Rick Taggart of Grand Junction.On Tuesday, Montana House Republicans posted a notice announcing they would take up disciplinary measures against Zephyr, Montana's first openly transgender representative, after she said that legislators who voted for a bill that bans gender-affirming care for minors would have blood on their hands, in reference to suicide rates among trans youth. The Montana House voted along party lines Wednesday to bar Zephyr from entering the House floor or gallery for the remainder of the legislative session, only allowing her to participate in votes via Zoom.Rep. Titone made history in 2018 when she was elected the first openly transgender state legislator in Colorado. As chair of the Colorado Legislative LGBTQ caucus, she's worked alongside members of the House and Senate to expand and protect LGBTQ rights in the state.In the letter, Titone applauded Zephyr for her efforts in the Montana Legislature, saying that she has “placed a spotlight of truth on the very real damage anti-trans legislation could have on Montanans who are already struggling with discrimination and growing fear of physical harm.”The Montana state legislative session ends on May 10, and Zephyr is unlikely to be reinstated before the end of the session. Aside from state Rep. Brianna Titone, here are the elected officials from Colorado who signed Titone's letter to the Members of the Montana House of Representatives:Statewide officials:Colorado Secretary of State Jena GriswoldColorado State Treasurer Dave YoungColorado state senators and representatives:House Speaker Julie McCluskieSenate President Steve FenbergHouse Majority Leader Monica DuranSenate Majority Leader Dominick MorenoRep.

The group is part of a national movement built on the idea that a local sheriff's power supersedes that of higher government entities including the U.S. president and the U.S. Supreme Court, and that sheriffs have a duty to nullify laws they interpret as unconstitutional.The civil rights and advocacy organizations highlighted numerous connections between the CSPOA and a variety of hate groups, with the NAACP denouncing some CSPOA members as “prominent antisemites, QAnon conspiracists, white nationalists and neo-confederates.”Sarah Kader, community manager for ADL Arizona, a state-level branch of a national organization that combats hate groups in the U.S., wrote “If the revised rule goes into effect, we fear that domestic extremists, based on their previous actions, will rush to take advantage of the opportunity,” Rachel Goldwasser, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, warned that the rule change could be used as a blueprint for creating workarounds allowing extremist organizations to train law enforcement in other states.Neither the governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs nor the attorney general, Democrat Kris Mayes, directly addressed concerns about neo-confederates and other domestic extremists running law enforcement trainings.ADL confirmed it did not receive a response from Gov. Hobbs' office until after the rule change took effect, though a spokesperson indicated the group had “every reason to believe that the Governor's office understands the concerns we have raised in our letters and is taking them seriously.” In their letters, ADL, SPLC and the NAACP all expressed concerns that more than half of Arizona sheriffs are at least partially aligned with the constitutional sheriff movement—connections AZCIR highlighted in its 2022 reporting.Rachel Goldwasser of SPLC said “Arizona has a large extremist presence in the Legislature, sheriffs' offices and among the public, unfortunately. They'll exploit any opportunity for these extremists to spread their ideology.”Three of the four letters also issued a warning about Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has known ties to CSPOA and is the frontman for Protect America Now, another so-called “constitutional sheriff” organization.Lamb, who announced a bid for the U.S. Senate in April, has developed a national presence by appearing on a slew of fringe right-wing news networks and podcasts, including those espousing QAnon conspiracies. Lamb did not respond to a request for comment.Sarah Kader of ADL said “In recent years, extreme ideologies have been mainstreamed and normalized at an alarming pace. This is due in large part to the growing number of elected officials and other high-profile individuals who traffic in conspiracies and hate.”This article first appeared on Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and is republished here under a Creative Commons license.DENVER WESTWORD: How Hard Can it Bee? ZzzzzzBee Here Now: Capella Ranch Has a Honey of an IdeaCATIE CHESHIRE APRIL 25, 2023 6:53AMIn countries like Germany and Slovenia, inhaling the aerosol created by bees in an apiary, or collection of beehives, is an authorized treatment for respiratory diseases. But in the United States, there are only three places that offer the experience: one in Georgia, one in Michigan, and Capella Ranch in Lafayette Colorado, which just opened for its second season.Carolyn Peterson, who owns the ranch with her family said “I'm going to be out here all summer, talking to people and enjoying them and hearing their stories. They're going to come stressed out, and then they're going to leave relaxed.”Capella Ranch currently has sheep, Nigerian dwarf goats, Nubian goats, ducks, chickens, a few turkeys and, of course, bees, the first of which arrived in 2018. To create their bee therapy Shangri-la, the Petersons started by building two cedar huts shaped like irregular pentagons. The cedar contributes to the aroma in the huts, although its durability in the Colorado weather is its chief asset here. The slanted roof of the hut concentrates the aerosol so people can breathe it in while they're lying flat. “Everyone comes out with a different experience,” Carolyn says. “They get in there. They lie down. They take in the whole thing, and then they just sort of concentrate on the humming of the bees.”When bees make honey, there's a lot of water in it at first, so the insects work to reduce the moisture content by flapping their wings. As it evaporates, the moisture is carried into the air to form an aerosol that people find therapeutic.The bees also create an electromagnetic field with their vibration, which is at a frequency that's calming to the human parasympathetic nervous system - a network of nerves that helps relax the body. Some people can feel the field, but most notice the smell first. Underneath the scent of cedar, there is the aromatic tang of the bees at work. Almost like the smell of a newborn baby, but with an extra oomph.“That is all the pollen, nectars, amino acids and essential oils that the bees are bringing in to make the honey,” Carolyn says. “It's just kind of an odd smell, and it's supposed to be very good to breathe in.”In Slovenia, the bee experience has been used to calm firefighters after hard jobs, children who have behavioral problems at school, and parents of those children, who might need some relaxation as well. The Petersons note that they aren't medical professionals, so they don't consider their huts medicinal.“If it happens to help, great,” Carolyn says. “It's relaxing. It's thirty minutes of nobody bugging you.”One person who says the bee huts have helped is Marsha Ruggeri, who lives in Lafayette. She went to Capella Ranch four times during its inaugural season.She first came with a friend who'd bought a deal on Groupon. After struggling with heightened asthma symptoms the past two years — which she attributes to wildfires and air pollution — Ruggeri was excited to learn of a potential way to alleviate her symptoms.And, it worked!“I'm not saying it was a panacea,” she says. “It felt like I was actually doing something that wasn't an inhaler or medication and I was regaining some control over how my body was reacting to all this shit in the air.”On Ruggeri's third visit, she experienced the electromagnetic field produced by the bees.“I was laying on my side, and then all of a sudden, I could feel it,” she says. “It really deserves more than one treatment. It's kind of like people who go for acupuncture, and they're like, ‘Well, it didn't do anything for me.' You really need to try it more than once.”Along with the eight hives in the huts, there are six to eight more near a special pond on the ranch where the bees drink. Last summer, over a hundred people came to Capella Ranch to check out the bees; a TikTok Charlie made announcing that the huts were open has gained about 20,000 views.One of those visitors, a reiki and yoga teacher from Fort Collins named Yarmey, found Capella Ranch on Instagram. “I'm really interested in energy and grounding and our connection to nature,” she says. Reiki is a practice of directing energy to help facilitate healing.After her first visit, Yarmey came back a second time, when she says she was really able to share a meditative space with the bees, reveling in their presence in a way that humans rarely get to do with other species.“When else in your life do you get to share space with a million other beings who all are very clear about their purpose and their path and what they need to be doing? Everything felt a little slower, more grounded.”The huts are now open for a second season; anyone is welcome except those allergic to bee or wasp stings. A thirty-minute session is $35; an hour runs $60. CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEKDENVER POST: Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with Angel Olsen - this Thursday and Friday night at Red Rocks.By JOHN WENZEL | jwenzel@denverpost.com | The Denver PostApril 28, 2023 at 6:00 a.m.Jason Isbell's voice can be a strapping, mournful thing, muscular and dripping with vulnerability as he chronicles his life in song. And on this day, it's still waking up.“This time of year I drink my black coffee cold so I can get it down quicker,” the 44-year-old singer-songwriter said over the phone from his Nashville porch on Monday. “I've spent so many years working late at night that it makes it hard for me to get on with normal life. It's tough, you know? But I think it's tough no matter how you do it.”Isbell's family and acclaimed music career test his resolve while giving him motivation to stay sober and productive. He has won a quartet of Grammy Awards since 2018 — about a decade after getting kicked out of his former alt-country band, Drive-By Truckers, for drinking and drugs In the HBO Max documentary “Music Box: Jason Isbell — Running with Our Eyes Closed,” which was released on April 7, we're afforded a close-up on his life as he records the album “Reunions” with his band, the 400 Unit. His intimate musical and romantic partnership with wife Amanda Shires (who is an acclaimed solo artist herself), his love of his daughter Mercy Rose, his past divorce, and the shock of the pandemic are all there in vivid cross-section.“If you're a recording artist or entertainer with any kind of success, you don't want to spend too much time looking back,” said Isbell, who was born in Green Hill, Ala., to a 17-year-old mother. “It's a self-centered way of living. But one thing I was surprised by watching the (documentary) is that I'd forgotten how hard those old days were, growing up where I did and having addiction issues. It was nice to see but painful to watch, that all of this was real and really happened to me, even if it's long in the rearview.”Isbell will headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre May 3 and 4 with the 400 Unit, on tour for their new album “Weathervanes,” to be released June 9. The lead single “Death Wish” has already been covered by Jack White and featured on “American Idol.” Isbell's melodies channel Americana, folk, country, and rock and roll. His lyrics are cutting, urgent, and full of visceral metaphors. On “Death Wish,” he sings:“I wanted action, she wanted answers / Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers / It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid.”Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit With Angel Olsen, Two shows, May 3 and 4, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Tickets at axs.com, and I think Adam may have an extra still, too. Welp, that's it for me! From Denver I'm Sean Diller.

We could not be more excited to welcome our close personal friend to the podcast this week: Musician and actor, Jason Isbell! You've heard him talk about his '59 Les Paul but have you heard Isbell break down the difference between dry snacks, snacks that are a test of class and snacks that are a proof of class? Plus, from transporting Kudos bars to Handi-Snacks, we talk about the benefits of Jason's proto-grunge ensembles of cargo pants and flannel shirts. We also discuss why so many heavy metal musicians are nice people, Jason's real-life encounters with members of Metallica and Pearl Jam and what it was like being raised by teenage parents and lots of grandparents in Alabama. As if that weren't enough, we finish up with a round of CHANGE.DORK where we weigh in on important petitions regarding Primus signature guitars, Georgia Gold vs Hot Chicken at KFC and if a collaboration between Isbell and John Mayer is in the works. (Spoiler alert: It isn't.) Be sure to check out Jason's new documentary RUNNING WITH OUR EYES CLOSED which is now streaming on HBO Max and pick up his latest album with the 400 Unit, WEATHERVANES, when it comes out on June 9th. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rhett returns from Europe to chat with “guitar player's guitar player” Sadler Vaden of Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. The trio jump right into their takes on the whole Bad Monkey saga, then dig into a detailed interview about how a Crazy Horse concert changed Sadler's life, some tips for guitarists (spoiler alert: rhythm guitar is important!), and they discuss the band's upcoming release, Weathervanes, unpacking the writing and recording process.When the conversation turns to gear (you knew it was coming), Sadler answers questions about his gig rig, shouts out his favorite guitar stores to hit up on tour, and then it's time to dip a rig (cue the Tube Screamer Talk).Along the way, we find out if Oasis is really Sadler's favorite band and what kind of U2 concert he really wants to see (hey Bono and Edge, you guys listening?), and talks about what it was like to see Prince live (and how far he drove).Finally, Rhett shares the improbable story of his newest acquisition, a Tascam 388.Thanks to Sweetwater for sponsoring this episode.Head to http://sweetwater.com/dippedintone to enter to win one of 2 rigs hand-picked by Rhett and Zach!
