    Dane Donohue

    In 1978, a young musician from the Midwest found his way to L.A., and was ushered into the studio to record his debut album with some of the best names in the business, including Stevie Nicks, Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmit, JD Souther, Jay Graydon, Larry Carlton, Steve Lukather, and Bill Champlin to create his self-titled debut album that became a must-have classic for West Coast music enthusiasts. Fast forward 46 years, and Dane Donohue is back with a brand new album titled “LA Rainbow”, which was produced by Page99’s John Nixon. On this episode of Inside MusiCast, we’ll discuss Dane’s path to the creation of both of these albums, including some amazing stories from the debut album and how he and John Nixon found each other for the new album, “L.A. Rainbow”.

    James Sayer

    On this episode of Inside MusiCast, we’re taking you to the UK for a chat with James Sayer, a multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter who just released his debut album titled “Creation.” The album caught the attention of IMC Correspondent Mikael Engstrom, as many of the songs on “Creation” capture the sound of early ‘80s West Coast that we all love, with smooth vocals and vocal harmonies, excellent musicianship, and stellar production qualities. However, the musical direction doesn’t stop at West Coast. James is a big fan of ‘70s soul and even gospel, and you’ll hear elements of these styles throughout the course of the ten original tracks on “Creation”. Here to talk to us about his debut album and his journey with music is James Sayer.

    Jesus Mollina

    Jesus Molina discovered his musical gift at a very young age. Born in Colombia, you might assume that his music inspiration was cumbia or vallenato. That wasn’t the case for Jesus. As a self-proclaimed YouTube baby, it was there that he discovered legendary jazz artists, such as Oscar Peterson, Art Tatum, Errol Garner, Bill Evans, Chick Corea, and Dizzy Gillespie - artists that captivated him and shaped the musician he is today. In 2016, Molina was honored with the prestigious Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation award, the Juan Luis Guerra Scholarship, which included music education at the Berklee College of Music. Since then, Jesus has emerged as one of the premier jazz keyboardists on the international stage. He recently released a new album titled “Selah” that was produced by the legendary Bobby Colomby. Here to chat with us about the new album, and his sudden rise to prominence on the jazz scene, is Jesus Molina.

    Tony Levin

    Tony Levin’s love of the bass guitar began when he was just ten years old, when his focus was classical music and performing on a double bass - and he never looked back. His classical training transitioned to rock and jazz, and his reputation as an A-list session bassist filtered throughout the music industry. Of course, one of Tony’s primary gigs has been holding down the bass chair for Peter Gabriel since the late ‘70s, performing on nearly all of Peter’s recordings and tours. However, his resume is extensive, having performed with John Lennon, Stevie Nicks, Pink Floyd, Paul Simon, Lou Reed, Buddy Rich, David Bowie, and many other icons in the music industry, along with being a member of Stick Men and Liquid Tension Experiment. Tony has a brand new album set to release on September 13 titled "Bringing it Down to the Bass". He's currently rehearsing for the upcoming BEAT tour: A supergroup that also includes Steve Vai, Adrian Belew, and Tool drummer Danny Carey, who will perform music from the three King Crimson albums that were released in the '80s. Here to talk to us about these new projects and his extensive career is none other than Tony Levin.

    Madeleine Peyroux and Jon Herington

    Madeleine Peyroux’s musical journey has been an adventure; a pilgrimage that has spanned to both coasts in the States, to the streets of Paris and other European cities, and back to the States where she currently resides in New York City. Along the way, music has always been right by her side as a travel companion, with her sound and lyrics shaped by the places she visited, and the people and musicians she met. One particular musician she sought after was guitarist Jon Herington. When she first heard Jon play, she developed a deep appreciation for his style and set out to collaborate with him. A decade and a half later, they’re still working together, and for the first time have collaborated on writing Madeleine’s latest album “Let’s Walk.”

    The Reddcoats

    On this episode of Inside MusiCast, we’re joined by three amazing musicians whose pedigrees in the music industry speak for themselves. Former Inside MusiCast guests, Gregg Bissonette and Andy Timmons, along with Matt Bissonette are here to discuss The Reddcoats, a band that was formed in 2019 and also includes Wally Minko and Ron Pedley on keys, and Mike Medina on percussion. The Reddcoats sound explores a lot of musical territory, with a mix of power pop, jazz, rock, and even a little funk. While the approach to their music is free-spirited, the performances are air tight, with a great blend of instrumental compositions, along with songs that deliver great vocals and vocal harmonies. The band recently released a brand new album titled The Reddcoats 2, and we’re honored to have Gregg, Matt and Andy here to chat about it. Hey guys, welcome to Inside MusiCast.
