12 december 2024 | 69 min

Episode 59: Jacob Collier. Today, I’m hyped to have one of my favorite artists on the podcast—Jacob Collier. Jacob is one of the brightest lights on Earth, and I always treasure our conversations. This time, you get to watch us! Jacob is nominated for 3 GRAMMYs this year, including Album of the Year, Best Arrangement, and Best Global Music Performance. With 6 GRAMMY wins and an incredible 15 nominations to his name, he’s set a remarkable standard, being nominated for Best Arrangement for the past 6 consecutive years—winning both Arrangement GRAMMYs in two of those years.

In this episode, we dive into Jacob’s world-building approach to music and life. We discuss his album Djesse Vol. 4, which is up for Album of the Year, and how he brought the project to life. Jacob shares what it feels like to complete the ambitious Djesse series and the magic of conducting massive audiences on his current tour.

We talk about his unmatched talent for arranging, crafting mind blowing versions of classics like "Bridge Over Troubled Water" with Tori Kelly and John Legend, to how he creates intricate layers that evolve from a single idea to a masterpiece.

Jacob opens up about life, fame, and staying grounded while still living at home with his mom. We even touch on reincarnation, our dearly treasured Quincy Jones (which is how Jacob and I got connected) and his friendship with Herbie Hancock. Stick around to the end to hear Jacob’s message to our homie, Zedd.

There’s so much to love in this episode—humor, depth, and the genius of one of the most inspiring musicians of our time.

We hope you love our conversation! Please like, comment, and subscribe for more amazing stories from the world’s most fascinating artists. Dropping new episodes weekly. Let’s go!!

57. Elena Pinderhughes: From Herbie Hancock to Future, This Jazz Star Brings Flute to Front & Center

22 november 2024 | 68 min

Episode 57 - Elena Pinderhughes is one of the most sought-after musicians in today’s vibrant jazz scene. From touring with legends like Herbie Hancock, Common, and Chief Adjuah to performing the iconic “Mask Off” with Future on the Coachella Main Stage, Elena has already brought the flute to a new level. She’s a prominent figure in this wave of brilliant young musicians rising within the new jazz world.

The first time I heard her play flute, it was alongside the jazz world’s GOAT, Herbie Hancock, and I immediately knew she was different. Her sound didn’t just complement something already iconic—she elevated it. Since then, I’ve seen her perform with Terrace Martin, Lalah Hathaway, Snarky Puppy, and so many more. I wanted to understand how she’s achieved so much at such a young age.

I’d boil it down to these things: Intention, mind set, dedication, and a strong support system with her brother, Samora Pinderhughes.

Elena talks about her journey—from being a teenage jazz star to becoming a first-call collaborator across genres. She shares stories about working with Herbie Hancock, Chief Adjuah, Esperanza Spalding, Robert Glasper, and Josh Groban, diving into the lessons she’s learned and how she’s crafted her unique sound. We explore the modern jazz scene, how she’s making her mark, and how she balances artistry with building a thriving career.

Elena Pinderhughes is a trailblazer in both jazz and pop culture, and there’s no question—her career is only going up from here.

1 november 2024 | 132 min

Episode 54 - Jason White is one of the greatest choir directors, vocal producers, and contractors in the world. He's best known as the leader of Kanye West's Sunday Service Choir, which took the world by storm in 2019, and he's worked with so many other legends as well. He worked with Beyoncé on her GRAMMY-winning "Break My Soul" (and we talk about that session in this episode), Will Smith on his first new music in years and re-emerging in the public eye (which we also talk about), Harry Styles, Elton John, T.I., Jennifer Hudson, Whitney Houston, Kurt Carr, and countless others. We talk about how Kanye's Sunday Service started, how he built it with Phil Cornish, Ye, and other key people; its rapid growth; employing hundreds of people; and the high-stakes preparation for their iconic Coachella performance, and so much more.

Jason dives into what it takes to blend spiritual roots with mainstream appeal, sharing stories from Sunday Service's beginnings and growth, understanding Ye and his own language, his unique role in the industry as a vocal contractor and his experiences with high-profile artists, from behind-the-scenes studio sessions with Beyoncé to Elton John and Andrew Watt. Jason also reflects on the power of choirs in music production, what it means to be a true leader, and how faith influences his work in the mainstream music industry. We have a great time, share valuable insights, fun stories and more. We hope you love the show. Let's go!!!

53. Kris Pooley: Music director for Katy Perry, American Idol, Arranging, Pink, Gwen Stefani, Super Bowl

24 oktober 2024 | 76 min

Episode 53: Kris Pooley is one of the most successful musical directors in the game, known for his long relationship as MD for Katy Perry, music directing American Idol for the last 8 seasons (going on 9), and working with Gwen Stefani, Kesha, Demi Lovato, Pink, Smashing Pumpkins, Morrisey, Jane's Addiction and so much more. We dive deep into his career, how he landed these gigs, his creative process behind directing major performances like Katy Perry’s Super Bowl Halftime Show, and his unique perspective of balancing these live shows all while working as the music director for American Idol (which is an intense 7 day a week gig when in season).

Kris gives advice on the importance of fostering strong relationships and reflects on the valuable lessons he’s learned while working in the industry. We talk about his future ambitions, what it’s like running his business day-to-day, and how he can stay home while still music directing these big acts. We also love that Kris is a fan of metal and listens to Meshuggah (daily). This was most important to Elmo. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.

Episode 49 is with the incredible composer, conductor, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist, Miguel Atwood Ferguson. We delve into Miguel's extensive career, having participated in over 600 recordings and 2,500 shows. He shares key insights from these experiences and his role in the next legendary LA movement alongside talents like Thundercat, Kamasi Washington, Flying Lotus and Terrace Martin.

Miguel recounts the artist's journey—meeting Thundercat for the first time, their collaboration, and the lessons learned along the way. We get a glimpse into his approach to blending classical music with hip-hop and working with icons such as Flying Lotus and Anderson .Paak. From arranging over Flying Lotus' music to performing with the Metropole Orkest and doing strings on Anderson .Paak & Smokey Robinson’s “Make It Better,” he reveals the intricacies of handling entrepreneurship as a musician, the process of becoming a "one-man orchestra," and how budgets impact the execution of creative ideas.

We also touch on his personal life—being a dad, lessons from his solo album "Les Jardins Mystiques Vol.1," and his experiences performing alongside legends like Henry Mancini, Quincy Jones, and John Williams. This enlightening conversation offers a deeper understanding of the role of a conductor, the importance of getting your work credited as a writer, and the transformative power of music across genres. Tune in to hear how Miguel continues to inspire and shape his musical world.

Alayna Rodgers and Alana Linsey have toured the world and performed on TV as background vocalists with artists such as Anderson .Paak, Steve Lacy, Raphael Saadiq, Harry Styles, Madonna, John Legend, The Masked Singer, and many more. They're the electric duo that's been on stage singing background vocals with Anderson .Paak, and now they're stepping to center stage with their own artist project, GAWD.

They just dropped their album Cathedral City Supreme and are going on tour with Anderson .Paak, pulling double duty by both opening the show as GAWD and singing background vocals with Anderson. We talk about how the project came together, stepping out and taking the risk of focusing on their artist project, developing their sound, working with producer (and drummer) Stanley Randolph, and much more.

We've loved Alayna and Alana for years, and now we love GAWD! Hope you enjoy this interview with them, and make sure to check them out everywhere. GAWD is awesome.

22 augusti 2024 | 51 min

This week's episode is with the AI music team, Dadabots. The co-founders CJ Carr and Zack Zukowski, are musicians and computer programers that have built an AI music system that creates original music through neural networks and machine learning. It is able to generate new songs and beats in the style of any artist, any genre, and even can create new genres. They have the longest continual stream on YouTube called RELENTLESS DOPPELGANGER that is AI music created in realtime and is ENDLESS. It's been going live since 2019 and still going. Since they're both musicians, they have a unique perspective on AI music. We talk about why they're doing this, where AI music is going, and some ideas for songwriters, producers and engineers. I believe it's important to look at all technology, study it, and pay attention, whether you are for it or not. This is how you can best prepare for whatever the future may hold, stay in touch, and be ahead of the curve. We hope you enjoy this conversation.

30. $1 Billion for Arts and Music Education: Prop 28 and School Gig with Austin Beutner, Former LA Times CEO, Deputy Mayor of LA, and LAUSD Superintendent

15 november 2023 | 43 min

Episode 30 - After an incredibly successful career as the CEO of LA Times, CEO of San Diego Tribune, partner at Blackstone, Deputy Mayor of Los Angeles, and more, Austin Beutner turned his attention to how he can help people, specifically with drastically improving arts education in California public schools. Austin became the Superintendent of Los Angeles Unified School District, and then he created Proposition 28. Prop 28 brings $1B a year to California public schools to bring arts and music education to all 6 million kids in public schools in California! We dive deep into what Prop 28 is, how to get the funds, how he created the bill, how he passed it, how to become an arts or music teacher, and how our new platform School Gig connects arts educators with jobs at school and districts.

- I know some of what needs to happen. I just need to set it in motion and not let myself just fall off.

- I can do this!

- I can be the person I want to be!

- Consistency is key!

- Stay locked in!

I need to repeat this and release myself from my current state!
