Song: Don't Go Putting the World on Your Shoulders Music by: Will Lawrence and Erin Bridges   Notes: December in the north is such a great time for me to dig a little deeper -- finding mini-rests, sometimes even by taking an extra breath before I go do the next thing. I love that this song reminds me to lean on other people, too... to widen my base, to remember my connections. The irony of recording this (alone, in my basement!) was not lost on me!!! So I hope you sing extra vigorously along with me, and share this song widely -- I have been loving singing it with my Flow Singers this month, and we are really feeling that "take a nap" verse, I tell you!   Songwriter Info: William Lawrence is an organizer and social movement strategist from Lansing, Michigan. He was a co-founder of Sunrise Movement. He is currently the Coordinator of the MI Rent Is Too Damn High coalition, fighting for rent control, tenants rights and social housing in the Great Lakes State. Erin Bridges was raised in Louisville, Kentucky, where she now lives with her dog and queer family in a big turquoise house. Like many southerners, she grew up with a love for shared meals, music sung in fellowship, pies made from the garden, and a close relationship to earth. Erin's work is rooted in building a world where everyone can access these simple pleasures. In 2017, she co-founded Sunrise, a youth movement that launched the Green New Deal, and more recently launched Hollerin' Up, aiming to fund people-powered teams for the long haul.   Sharing Info: Erin and Will are happy for this song to be shared far and wide, attributed to the two of them!   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:03:42 Start time of reprise: 00:13:29   Links: Sunrise Movement: https://www.sunrisemovement.org/about/ Sunrise Movement songbook: https://drive.google.com/file/d/120wccqh6jdV-Cb1gCZgxtuE7ELnYPUXL/view?usp=sharing which includes a beautiful acknowledgment of the complexity of oral songsharing without appropriation   Nuts & Bolts: 2:2, major, verse & chorus   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?

Random movie 61 on our list of Best Picture Oscar winners was "Lawrence of Arabia," directed by David Lean and released in 1962. It is an epic historical drama that tells the story of T.E. Lawrence, played by Peter O'Toole, and his adventures in the Arabian Peninsula during World War I. Alongside O'Toole, the film boasts performances by Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn, and Omar Sharif. Will Lawrence's audacious tactics and charismatic leadership be enough to unite the Arab tribes against the Ottoman Empire? Listen on and find out!

We've put the "Gone Fishing" sign up here at Spot Lyte On… as we wrap up Season 6 and get things ready for the next one. But that doesn't mean we want you to miss out on your weekly dose of LP's conversations with his fascinating guests. So we'll be featuring a few "best of" Spot Lyte On… episodes over the next few weeks.James Felice of the Felice Brothers joins LP to talk about growing up in upstate NY, the early days of the band, and the story behind their latest record, "From Dreams to Dust."The Felice Brothers, Ian (guitar and lead vocals) and James (multi-instrumentalist and vocals) hail from the Catskills, NY, where their early songs echoed off subway walls and kept company with travelers and vagrants. Their current lineup, with the addition of bassist and inaugural female Felice member Jesske Hume (Conor Oberst, Jade Bird) and drummer Will Lawrence (also a singer/songwriter) as their rhythm section, promises to be the best yet. Nathaniel Walcott (trumpet) and Mike Mogis (pedal steel player) act as an accompaniment throughout the tracks, the latter of whom mixed From Dreams to Dust, which was produced by The Felice Brothers. A folk-Americana-rock-country band with deep roots in varied genres, The Felice Brothers are what Rolling Stone lauds as “musician's musicians” and poets. Indeed, Ian has proven his pedigree as a poet with the publication of his limited-edition collection of poetry Hotel Swampland (2017).They are known by fans for their catchy tunes like “Frankie's Gun,” “Love Me Tenderly,” “Cherry Licorice,” and “Lion” and, more recently, 2019's “Undress” and “Special Announcement,” but they offer much more than a great sound. Seamlessly interweaving bizarre catalogs of literary and pop-culture references with vivid portrayals of life and its kaleidoscope of tragedies and hopes, their lyrics and dazzling musical accompaniment not only sound good but demand introspection.  Some of the themes that run through their music, as Ian states, “are perennial” and are centered around “searching for something or transformation.”  Others explore “characters trying to achieve some ideal they're striving for” or who are “being weighed down by reality.”

On this episode Lauren is joined by American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and co-founder of The Felice Brothers, James Felice.  The band consists of brothers James and Ian Felice, Will Lawrence and Jesske Hume. In September this year, the band released their wonderful new album 'From Dreams to Dust',  their fourth album for Yep Roc. James discusses the writing and recording process behind the album track by track. -Find The Felice Brothers on the Web | Instagram-Follow LP: Uncovered on Instagram

This week, we call into the Catskills of New York for a deep conversation with James Felice: accordionist, pianist, songwriter and co-founder of fun-house-mirror Americana group The Felice Brothers. James started the band with his brothers (poet lead singer Ian) and percussionist Simone in 2006 as a busking folk pop experiment with a literary rebel streak within the subways of New York City. They've joined roots-pop luminaries like Bright Eyes at venues as storied as Radio City Music Hall - but somehow the gritty, back-alley bar seems like their natural habitat. Ian, James and their longtime quartet (Will Lawrence and bassist Jesske Hume round out the band) returned after years of hibernation to release their daring party-through-the-apocalypse rollercoaster of a new LP From Dreams To Dust in 2021 on Yep Roc Records.Some bands record at home, or maybe in tricked-out cabins or plush studios, but The Felice Brothers seem to make records that use their unique and often bizarre surroundings as an added character in the band. Their beloved self-titled record, which came out 2008, feels like a gin-soaked saloon party where Hemingway and Lou Reed and Sly Stone would join in on swaying sing-alongs besides a sweat-soaked piano. It was somehow recorded in a converted chicken coop, while their brassy, bizarro-rock romp Celebration, Florida (2011) was recorded in a booming high school gymnasium. “Honda Civic” is a musical-theater-esque favorite, with an explosion at the local Wonder Bread warehouse taking center stage in the narrative. Does any of it make sense? Does it matter?Their newest work is a more emotional, sonically lush, storytelling driven operation, having been recorded in a church in Harlemville, New York with award-winning mixer Mike Mogis at the helm. Mortality takes the spotlight. Ian Felice is in rare form here, spitting more words and setting more strange scenes per song than most slam-poets or absurdist playwrights. The lead song “Jazz On The Autobahn” has become a staple on Americana radio, showcasing what TFB have always done best: taking their listeners on a white-knuckle ride that has no predicable end or resolve in sight. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We all know the car. It's sleek Italian lines, 4.0 litre inline six bubbling away, hiding twin machine guns, a smoke screen, tire thrashing spikes... wait what? Ah yes, it's 007's car! The Aston Martin DB5, having first appeared in 1964s Goldfinger is synonymous with James Bond. So much so that publishing house Hero Collector has come out with a 290 page book on it, penned by Eon publicist, Will Lawrence. HE sat down with our resident gearhead Emery to chat about this recent release. Start your engines!

HBO's Insecure season 4 finale left us feeling some kind of way. I wanted to check in with my former guest co-hosts that helped me deliberate on various themes mid-season. The finale just hit differently though. We explored the highs and lows of what happened with Lawrence and Issa [hint: it involved Canola Oil aka Condola], Andrew being sick and tired of Molly's shit, and how they addressed various issues we deal with in the black community including mental health and postpartum. The finale answered some things but left other things in limbo. Will Issa want to work things out with Lawrence? Will Lawrence still take the job in San Fran? Is Nathan going to shoot his shot or keep it friendly and will Latoya come up missing dead or alive? All the questions. The finale also inspired conversation around things we need to normalize and not normalize while I romanticized about black love. Whew a bevy of emotions but grateful to my guests and you all for tuning in.

Cirque du Soleil “VOLTA” is, on the surface, a circus; a big top amalgam of a number of circus-type acts and feats. But it seems reductive to leave the description there. I was given deep, “in the trenches” access to “VOLTA” earlier this week, which theoretically made it easier for me to summarize the show. Instead, the more I thought about it, the harder it became to explain. As I walked around the compound and backstage areas, the word “everything” kept bouncing in my head. The production, from what happens behind the scenes to what you see on stage, includes everything: It’s multi-generational. All the performances long-time Cirque attendees would expect (acrobatics, hoop-jumping) are there, making it a comfortable experience for the proverbial upper demos. On the other hand, “VOLTA” crescendos in a gravity-defying, dizzying BMX performance that feels more representative of a generation that can’t yet legally drink. The Cirque performers and crew are multi-continental. There’s an almost otherworldliness to the Cirque experience, as the vision and perspectives aren’t told through one distinct cultural filter. I spent most of my night in close proximity to band leader/drummer Ben Todd, who’s from Australia, and guitarist Will Lawrence, who’s British. Along the way, I also met singer/violinist Camilla Bäckman (the first Finnish musician in Cirque du Soleil). If Cirque isn’t a metaphor for the citizens of Planet Earth coming together under a shared vision, I don’t know what is. The on-stage performances straddle every corner of the performing arts. I saw ballet, dance, comedy, vaudeville, singing, acting and sports (BMX is sports, right?). The score isn’t content to lock into one groove. My preconceived notion of Cirque du Soleil’s music was “theatrical Enya.” And while a new age haze is always on the horizon in “VOLTA,” I was pulled in by prog rock moments (“Like Kids”), pop smarts (“Dancing Ants”) and synthy elevations (“Modern Jungle”). When Cirque du Soleil lands in a city, they create their own city inside it. The various tents and trailers that populate the parking lot are a sustaining infrastructure, including costume design, bike repair, gear repair, showers and bathrooms, a cafeteria with world-class (and healthy) food, and practice/workout spaces. Speaking of which, you wouldn’t be wrong to have tired legs just from watching this pre-show warmup from the rope skippers: And here’s the ceiling of that same practice space: My plan for the night was to embed with the band during the show. Before the show, I sat down with band leader/drummer Ben Todd to talk about his career and his Cirque observations, which you can hear in this podcast.   Minutes before showtime, Ben and Will Lawrence spirited me away into one of the two “band pits." The pits are essentially musician bunkers that are beneath, but still visible, on the stage.  Here’s the view from the band pit, Will Lawrence included. I was perched in the corner of Will’s space, watching him transition from guitar-to-keyboard-to-different-guitar-to-onstage-performer with a stressless grace (and a fairly constant smile throughout). To my immediate right was Ben’s drum room, where he balanced the performance aspect of the gig with providing in-the-moment direction to the band as the performance shifted, changed and twisted in some unexpected ways. How close was I to the drums, you ask? THIS CLOSE. I was wired into the stage directions and Ben’s directions via IFB device and headphones, so I could hear everything going on behind the scenes. For those of us who can’t walk and chew gum at the same time, hearing Ben direct the band while playing drums and monitoring the show comes off as a multitasking achievement. In my interview with Ben, we talked about how unforeseen circumstances can lead to him making decisions and adjustments on the fly, making each performance unique. It must have been foreshadowing, because that’s exactly what happened on the night I was there.  Because this has been the worst weather summer ever in Chicago (right?), what started as a beautiful night went south for about an hour as storms rolled through. Lightning was detected near the downtown area, and “VOLTA” had to be paused twice for safety precautions. I heard the notices come through my IFB, something along the lines of, “we’re stopping the show” (which sounded super ominous without the context of what was happening outside). Ben directed the band to kill the music as stage activity was brought to a halt for 15 minutes each time.  To oversimplify show business moments like that, shit happens. And when they happen, the incident is never as important as the recovery from it. And the recovery was seamless.  The two unplanned breaks meant songs needed to be sacrificed as the show was realigned. Will and Ben showed no perceptible shift in attitude or energy as they stole the momentum back from the weather-dictated down times. As multi-continental as the “VOLTA” cast is, it’s cool to know that the Chicago area has representation in “VOLTA.” Kevin Beverly is a hoop-diver and a back-up for lead character Waz. We snuck in a quick picture as a sign of local solidarity: Cirque du Soleil “VOLTA” runs through July 6 in the South Parking Lot of Soldier Field.   Car Con Carne is presented by the Autobarn Mazda of Evanston

Cirque du Soleil “VOLTA” is, on the surface, a circus; a big top amalgam of a number of circus-type acts and feats. But it seems reductive to leave the description there. I was given deep, “in the trenches” access to “VOLTA” earlier this week, which theoretically made it easier for me to summarize the show. Instead, the more I thought about it, the harder it became to explain. As I walked around the compound and backstage areas, the word “everything” kept bouncing in my head. The production, from what happens behind the scenes to what you see on stage, includes everything: It’s multi-generational. All the performances long-time Cirque attendees would expect (acrobatics, hoop-jumping) are there, making it a comfortable experience for the proverbial upper demos. On the other hand, “VOLTA” crescendos in a gravity-defying, dizzying BMX performance that feels more representative of a generation that can’t yet legally drink. The Cirque performers and crew are multi-continental. There’s an almost otherworldliness to the Cirque experience, as the vision and perspectives aren’t told through one distinct cultural filter. I spent most of my night in close proximity to band leader/drummer Ben Todd, who’s from Australia, and guitarist Will Lawrence, who’s British. Along the way, I also met singer/violinist Camilla Bäckman (the first Finnish musician in Cirque du Soleil). If Cirque isn’t a metaphor for the citizens of Planet Earth coming together under a shared vision, I don’t know what is. The on-stage performances straddle every corner of the performing arts. I saw ballet, dance, comedy, vaudeville, singing, acting and sports (BMX is sports, right?). The score isn’t content to lock into one groove. My preconceived notion of Cirque du Soleil’s music was “theatrical Enya.” And while a new age haze is always on the horizon in “VOLTA,” I was pulled in by prog rock moments (“Like Kids”), pop smarts (“Dancing Ants”) and synthy elevations (“Modern Jungle”). When Cirque du Soleil lands in a city, they create their own city inside it. The various tents and trailers that populate the parking lot are a sustaining infrastructure, including costume design, bike repair, gear repair, showers and bathrooms, a cafeteria with world-class (and healthy) food, and practice/workout spaces. Speaking of which, you wouldn’t be wrong to have tired legs just from watching this pre-show warmup from the rope skippers: And here’s the ceiling of that same practice space: My plan for the night was to embed with the band during the show. Before the show, I sat down with band leader/drummer Ben Todd to talk about his career and his Cirque observations, which you can hear in this podcast.   Minutes before showtime, Ben and Will Lawrence spirited me away into one of the two “band pits." The pits are essentially musician bunkers that are beneath, but still visible, on the stage.  Here’s the view from the band pit, Will Lawrence included.
