    This week on Music of Bond, the tuxedos come off, and we turn the “Live” dial up to 11.

From thunderous brass blasts to sultry strings and crowd-raising crescendos, we explore how Bond’s music transforms when it leaves the studio and hits the concert hall. Which performances absolutely understood the assignment? And what is it about the live sound that makes you want to order a martini immediately? Tune in and find out.

    MOB Season 2 | JW & Chris Wood's Return & Reconnection in Real Time!

    Welcome to Season 2 of Music of Bond. We are officially back in real-time! Join JW and Chris Wood as they catch up, properly, on Chris’s new addition to his family, how the Skyfall red vinyl brought JW back into the fold, and a recap of the last six batch episodes, all recorded last spring and early summer. We read all of your emails, DMs, and comments—a lot of ground to cover. And as requested, we cover ours and yours deep, deep love for the LA-LA Land release of Thunderball. Thank you, everyone, for your continued support of the MOB community. We appreciate you. Of note, this episode was recorded the day before LA-LA Land announced Mookraker on vinyl.

    Beach Bond Vol. 1

    Welcome to our end-of-the-summer extravaganza! We're heading back to the beach one last time before the sun sets on summer—SPF not included. After all, where would James Bond be without a legendary beach scene? From Sean Connery’s suave strolls to Daniel Craig’s iconic swim trunks, the sand and surf are as essential as the Aston Martin. But we have to ask: why was Timothy Dalton always so buttoned up? Maybe the world just wasn’t ready for those pecs. So grab your favorite beach drink, put on your sunglasses, and join us for a sun-soaked Bond bash. Dive in and enjoy the ultimate beachside Bond celebration!
