  1. Sticky Jazz Interview Michael Passons / Ty Herndon

    Sticky Jazz Interview Michael Passons / Ty Herndon

    I got a text from my friend Ty Herndon about a new release he and some friends have just hit the world with. Michael Passons is the former vocalist for the top selling Christian chart topping band "Avalon". He was forced out of the band by refusing to go through conversion therapy. He came out of retirement from singing to re record this one with the true message of the lyrics with Ty Herndon and fellow Avalon bandmate Melissa Greene, and it went to the top of the Christian music charts, where NO-ONE was expecting it to go. The stir it caused on the internet brought out so much love and support as the comments were overwhelmingly positive, with so many people in the Christian music fanbase saying it helped them to find healing and once again beauty in a classic song. I got to interview Ty and Michael, and it was pretty monumental in the content. Also Ty and I managed to stay on target and not let our ADHD get us off on tangents. This was a wonderful interview and it belongs to anyone who is searching for healing outside of the traditional box of "Christian Values", as even the guys who wrote the song let them know that this was the true meaning of why they wrote it. SO, Happy Pride everyone, and enjoy. http://www.tyherndon.com/ http://www.michaelpassons.com/ https://www.instagram.com/michaelpassons/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/melissagreene/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/tyherndonofficial/?hl=en #tyherndon #avalontheband #melissagreene #michaelpassons #gaysingers #testifytolove

    Sticky Jazz Interview Paul Litteral and Angie O'Niell

    I don't interview Jazz musicians very often, this time around I got some all stars, Paul Litteral and Angie O'Niell. I interviewed Paul about the Outrageous 8 during the pandemic, and The Paul Litteral Band recently released an album "The Litteral Truth", a Jazz album doing a lot of great covers of old Rock Classics. They covered Steely Dan to The Specials just doing their magic with these old songs. They enlisted the help of Anna Orbison on vocals for some of the tracks. And explained the purpose behind each song and why they chose them. We talked a lot about the days when there were white and black folks playing rock in the same bands, and how the labels put an end to that. Angela gave us a glimpse of her brief stint in trashy horror films, while Paul told stories of being rented out between bands, James Brown, Robert Plant, and Dan Hartman, and back and forth. There is so much they both covered that the stories alone are worth listening to this episode Album on spotify #outrageous8 #jamesbrown #milesdavis #thehoneydrippers #robertplant #therollingstones #paullitteral #paullitteralband This program may contain copyrighted material which has not always been authorized by the copyright owners.

  3. Sticky Jazz interview Chris Garneau (round 2)

    Sticky Jazz interview Chris Garneau (round 2)

    My second interview with acclaimed singer-songwriter Chris Garneau, marking four years since our first conversation. In this wide-ranging and deeply philosophical discussion, explore creativity, change, and artistic evolution—delving into territory that left many prepared questions behind in favor of organic, thought-provoking dialogue. These are the best kind of interviews, when the conversation takes on a life of its own. Much has changed in Garneau’s world since the last encounter. Having relocated from upstate New York to “The City,” the artist channeled the energy, intensity, and new experiences of urban life into his bold new album, In Reverse The record represents a striking sonic departure, blending resurrected 1989 indie aesthetics with lush dream pop, while fluidly navigating the spaces between goth and shoegaze. Nothing was off limits. During the interview, Garneau reflects on the unpredictable journey of the album’s creation. Several songs evolved into completely different entities than originally envisioned, resulting in a finished product that bears little resemblance to its earliest iterations. The final work delivers a rich, immersive experience full of texture and surprise. The conversation also dives into the album’s lyrical landscape, which pushes boundaries in the tradition of Tom Waits’ nonsensical poetry on RAINDOGS and the ethereal, otherworldly vocals of Liz Fraser with Cocteau Twins. Listeners can expect everything from introspective storytelling to abstract, dreamlike expression. “There is something for everyone on this album,”. From sonic adventurers to those drawn to profound lyricism, "In Reverse" offers a compelling and multifaceted body of work. Tune in to hear Chris Garneau discuss his artistic evolution, the influence of his new environment, and the unexpected paths that led to one of his most ambitious releases to date.

  4. Sticky Jazz Interview Trust Me

    Sticky Jazz Interview Trust Me

    Lynn Breedlove (He/They) is a longtime legend in the Bay Area Punk Scene, having played the same stage the same night with Pansy Division (Oh the story there) and so much else. Pulling long time collaborators Travis Andrews and percussionist Andy Meyerson for this current project "Trust Me" for some really beyond personal experiences of grief, growing up queer, lost in America's shameful history of exclusion. Fighting to self identify, and fighting just to survive. This album goes into a life no stone unturned, Lynn tells the story of a series of murders that were personal, and how to love the person who did it, saying "Forgiveness does not equal justice" and plenty of other insights into what makes us human. Lynn also told some great stories about Chris Freeman of Pansy Division, that I have his permission to leave in this episode. The album is called "Why I like Dead Guys", and it came from an email explaining Bowie and Prince.
