On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Jae Soto! Her debut album, “Leave the Light On,” has quickly become one of my favorites of 2024. It’s special and I can’t stop listening to it. After talking a bit about that, we get into the beauty of Linda Perhacs’ music, Gal Costa’s infectious sounds, […]
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Yann Novak! There’s so many things Yann does that are important in my life – from his music (check out the upcoming “Voices of Theseus”!) and label to his supportive approach with artists – so it was so great to have this conversation. We get into […]
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Jeffrey Silverstein! His new EP, “Roseway,” is a perfect summer jam. After talking about his band, we get into early house shows performing Green Day songs, Johnny Frierson lighting up the world, the perfection of Faces, the poetry of Bill Callahan, the best version of “You’ve […]

Her new mixtape series is (along with her recent album, “Volta”) one of my favorite things happening in 2024. Plus, I’m […]

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Lawrence English on the show. I’ve known Lawrence for almost two decades now, and I am in constant awe of his music, his drive, and the way he builds community through his work. A new collaboration with Akira Kosemura has my attention right now, but […]
For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Matthew Sage on the show. His band, Fuubutsushi has a new album out in June called “Meridians” and it is dosed with magic. After chatting about that for a bit and his decision to take cached.media off Bandcamp, we get into it. Imagining existing in […]
For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Shane Parish on the show. When it comes to modern guitar gods, Shane is right up there for me. I am constantly amazed by not just what he can play, but HOW he plays – there is so much subtlety, emotional depth, and joy in […]
For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Myriam Gendron on the show. Suffice to say, Myriam is one of my favorite musicians and songwriters on the planet, and her newest album, Mayday, only cements that further. Beyond all the great music we talked about, Myriam brought up an interesting point around thinking […]
