    Ben Vida - Songs of Our Lives #133

    On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Ben Vida! I can’t overemphasize how much of a fan I am of Ben’s work generally, and especially his latest album, “Oblivion Seekers.” It follows-up the brilliant “The Beat My Head Hit,” and as ever, there is nobody working with language in the way Ben does, and in a way that I find utterly captivating. We talk all about it before getting into the likes of Caetano Veloso, Old & New Dreams, Mayo Thompson, VU, Kraftwerk, Metallica, Van Morrison, US Maple and plenty more!

    Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let's revisit this episode & then listen to Whitney’s trio album with Lia Kohl and Macie Stewart. 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.

    **Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let's revisit one of my favorite episodes w/ one of the most underrated musicians out there!** 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!

    Caroline Davis - Songs of Our Lives #126

    On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Caroline Davis! I am smitten with her latest record, “Fallows.” It’s her first saxoxphone and electronics album, and it feels like this fully-realized version of her creative practice in this moment. There is so much to hear and feel, it’s remarkable. We talked a lot about that, her work with Creatives Against Carceration, and then dug into a load of music from Duke Ellington, Judee Sill, Boyz II Men, Bonnie Raitt, Billy Preston, Tamela Mann, Nick Hakim, Joni, Dylan + plenty more!
