On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s YATTA! Even though we had to fight through some technical difficulties throughout, we had a great time talking about YATTA’s latest album, “Palm Wine” (one of the albums of the year), the Palm Wine genre, making music videos, and more. Once we get to the questions, we go long about their granduncle, S.E. Rogie, the undeniable magic of Brenda Fassie, moments when Kanye’s still got it, an unapologetic appreciation for “Sandstorm,” Whitney Houston, Sufjan Stevens, The Flamingos + plenty more!

On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Whitney Johnson! Whitney did something I’ve always dreamed about - releasing two different albums (under two separate names no less!) on the same day, and both of them are fabulous. We talk about that and some other sound projects before diving into all the sides of Sonny Sharrock, Prince’s all-time greatness, unrepentant love for ABBA, Psychic TV destroying us, the Steve Winwood hypetrain, and FINALLY someone’s favorite song is also my favorite song, so we had a moment at the end. Plus more, obviously!

5 november 2024 |
82 min
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Tomin! This one feels full circle. Ever since learning about Tomin’s music nearly four years ago, I’ve felt a special connection to it. It’s been hard to explain, but after seeing his picks for this episode and talking to him about them, it makes a lot more sense. His latest record, “A Willed and Conscious Balance,” is out now International Anthem and is such a special listen. We talk about that, his cheat code of a band, and plenty more before diving into TLC’s eye-opening impact, the all-time greatness of jaimie branch, the absurdly underappreciated Marvin Hannibal Peterson, living in the same timeline as Alice Coltrane, transcending with Ballake Sissiko, Charles Mingus, James Brandon Lewis, John Coltrane, and loads more!

On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s amelia courthouse! I loved her last album, “ruby glass,” a lot, but the connection with the new one, “broken things,” runs so much deeper. We talked about growing up with church hymns and the affinity we still feel for a lot of that music before diving into one hell of an episode. We get into why there can only ever be one Leonard Cohen, obsessing over 80s Bob Dylan, finally getting Fleetwood Mac , the magic and catharsis of Larry Young, Beth Nielson Chapman crushing us, Vince Gill, The Handsome Family, The Velvets, and so much more!

Sarah’s one of the hardest working people in world of experimental composition, so much so that she has TWO new releases out and on the way . Her latest, “The Head As Form’d In The Crier’s Choir,” came out last month, and it’s incredible. In November, “Music For A Bellowing Room” - a durational piece made in collaboration with filmmaker Dicky Bahto - will be released. It all feels like a dream.

We talked a lot about Rainey’s history with pow wows and pow wow singing while growing up on the south side of Minneapolis before digging into songs that have stuck with him.

64 min
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Loula Yorke! Ever since our paths crossed a couple years ago, I’ve become a huge admirer of all the various components in Loula’s creative practice. Her new mixtape series is (along with her recent album, “Volta”) one of my favorite things happening in 2024. Plus, I’m not sure I’ve laughed more during an episode than this one! So, after talking through both of those things, we get into jamming to ABBA, Mira Calix and Oliver Coates destroying us, Candi Staton’s unheralded greatness, the diverging paths and intersections of dance music and punk, Kreayshawn’s drunk vibes, the honey in Erykah Badu’s voice, The Roches unhinged lyrics, how utterly bad ass Special Interest are, Liquid Crystal being better than Mozart, and so much more!

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 I know there’s always something else lurking around the next corner. Our conversation is winding, vaguely on topic (and in the usual format), but we hit some high points with his love of anime, the power of Public Enemy to open windows, Merzbow’s uplifting spirit, the surprise of Ace Frehley’s solo album, Sakamoto bringing out the tears, and so much more!

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 it that it becomes infectious. His new album, “Repetoire,” is an absolute triumph. After we get into that and his love of transcribing music for solo guitar, we go all out with one of Dylan’s most brutal songs, loving life with Nina Simone, Fugazi doing Fugazi things, Coltrane going immortal, Nick Drake and courtship, and finally - FINALLY - someone picks THE answer for which cover song is better than the original. Oh, and there’s loads more, too!

Beyond all the great music we talked about, Myriam brought up an interesting point around thinking about songs vs. performances that I am still pondering weeks later. But, with that, we talked about getting destroyed by Nico, the most beautiful melody in history, Guns N Roses lack of redeeming qualities, Will Oldham’s beautiful restlessness, contentious Leonard Cohen gems, Rosali on fire, lullabies with Sandy Denny, and so much more!

After talking a bit about the record, we go long with how Disney songs ingrain in our memories, the hardest anime theme around, Bee Gees making us feel good, Herbie Hancock raising his own level, lots of love for ABBA, Kanye’s best lyrics, Laura Mvula’s voice from another dimension, and more!

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Andrew Pekler on the show. Andrew’s new album as SG, For Lovers Only / Rain Suite is an absolute gem - an album I keep returning to this year.

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite chef and writer Natasha Pickowicz on the show. Natasha is a three-time James Beard Award finalist who published her first cookbook, More Than Cake, earlier this year.
