Dweller On The Threshold Brian Gathy

This episode, musician Colton Cerny and I discuss the third album of Van's initial mainstream trilogy of releases. That's right, we go deep into the history, players and songwriting of this classic album. It's a damn shame its's not available on any streaming sites. Let me know if you agree with me and Colton or not. Enjoy!

Please enjoy this continuation of my conversation with Van Trumpeter/Musical Director Matt Holland. Next episode coming soon, exploring Tupelo Honey!

It was a great pleasure to talk with trumpet player/musical director, Matt Holland. Matt has played with a laundry list of legendary artists and  served as Van's  go-to trumpeter/multi-instrumentalist  for many years (primarily from the mid-90s to the 2010s and beyond). Enjoy part one of our conversation. 

...And we're back! Another content packed episode is here to promenade with. Enjoy this two and a half hour exegesis of His Band And The Street Choir. Next episode will be another incredibly special interview with a Van alumni.

Enjoy part two of my conversation with John, where we go through the rest of the catalog he was a part of, as well as some behind the scenes insights and what he's up to these days.

In the first diversion from the discography theme of the show, I sit down with longtime Van guitarist, John Platania. Van met him in Woodstock and has utilized his talents (off and on) throughout the years ever since. With an instantly recognizable acoustic and electric touch on guitar, John has contributed some of the most memorable riffs in Van's catalog.
