    Ep. 79: Burn the Jukebox

    Burn the Jukebox have been burning up the internet for the last few years and have made a name for themselves by playing some of the best Rock and Pop songs of the past few decades. This group of highschoolers caught the attention of music lovers by rocking songs from everyone from Hendrix, to Journey to Lady Gaga. As now-seasoned musicians and artists, Burn the Jukebox is writing their own powerhouse and catchy songs that prove they are much more than a "cover band." In this fun interview, I sat down with the band's bassist and co-vocalist, Virginia Franks, and chat about the band's journey so far. As the youngest guest I've interviewed (age 17), Virginia is the youthful end of the female bass players I've had, with the oldest guest I've had, the Queen of Bass herself, Carol Kaye (age 87 when I interviewed her).  This is a band who has found great success..... and they're just getting started!

    Ep. 78: Phil Keaggy & Malcolm Guite discuss their new album!

    I had the pleasure of sitting with Phil Keaggy and Malcolm Guite and discuss their brand new collaborative album, Songs and Sonnets. This special album is filled with the masterful poetry of Malcolm Guite, whose recitations add life to the the words he penned. The beautiful music Phil Keaggy created for each poem doesn't act as a mere backdrop for the poem, but it helps to create the atmosphere for the spoken words and enhances the listener's experience.  Songs and Sonnets is precisely the album the busy world needs. It's the album the racing soul and overextended man and woman needs. This collection of words and music is the pause button we all need. Malcolm, Phil and I discuss the backstory of several pieces, how the project came together, and we chat about friendship, art, Christ, and so much more.    In order to get the FULL package, which includes several bonus tracks, purchase the album here: https://philkeaggyfriends.bandcamp.com/album/strings-sonnets   A very special thanks to Phil and Malcolm, two of the most delightful men I've met as a podcaster. Thanks to Tom Gulotta for joining us and for putting together such a beautiful package. Subscribe where you're listening and if you enjoyed tis episode, share it with your friends.

    Ep. 77: Interview with Petra legend, Bob Hartman pt. 2

    Bob Hartman is one of my heroes and it was a tremendous honor to conduct such an extensive interview with him. We begin part two of this interview talking about how Bob tracked down John Schlitt, which would lead to John joining the band. Bob and I discuss a wide variety of topics including songwriting, the very precarious early Schlitt years, the impact of Petra's ministry and so much more. The apex of the 90 minute interview comes near the end, where there is some breaking news in the Petra World. A heartfelt thank you to Bob Hartman for sharing his stories and time with me. Bob, I thank the Lord for you. This episode is dedicated to Elijah Clark, who is part of the newest generation of Petra fans. Eli, keep pursuing a fool's gold.  With over 3 million podcasts in existence, being an independent podcaster is VERY challenging, especially for a non-celebrity like me.

    Ep. 76: Interview with Petra legend, Bob Hartman pt. 1

    In part one of this in-depth conversation with Petra founder, Bob Hartman, we talk about Bob's early influences and the guitarists that captured his attention as a young musician.

    Ep. 75: The dB's (Peter Holsapple & Will Rigby)

    The dB's may not be a household name in the mainstream of Rock, but for those that enjoy the alleyways and cul-de-sacs of popular music, The dB's stand with a handful of other bands that unintentionally helped start a new genre of music.  In this conversation, I speak with Peter Holsapple and Will Rigby about their music journey, the re-release of their album 'Repercussion', and their experiences in the music industry over the decades. We discuss their unique sound, influences, connections with other bands like R.E.M., and the nostalgia of revisiting their earlier works.  "Repercussion" is seen by many as the crown jewel of the band's catalogue and it has been remastered for re-release on October 18, 2024, available on vinyl for the first time in the US.  To pick up your own copy of "Repercussion" and other dB's re-releases, click here: https://propellersoundrecordings.com/ To keep up with all things dB's, click here: https://thedbs.com/ With episode 75 now in the books, season 3 comes to an end. Thank you to those who have listened and shared kind encouragements. Season 4 will be starting soon, after a short break.  With over 3 million podcasts in existence, being an independent podcaster is VERY challenging, especially for a non-celebrity like me.

And my wonderful sons, Luke and Jacob say "and our dad."

    Ep. 73: Sara Horner on the Life & Legacy of James Horner

    James Horner composed music for over 160 films during the course of his remarkable career. Among his many works are music scores for some of the biggest films in Hollywood history, like Avatar and Titanic, and epic films such as Braveheart and Glory. But beyond all of the big movies; beyond the multiple Oscars, Grammys, Golden Globes and countless other awards, was a quiet and private man who was quirky and complex. No one knew James better than his wife, Sara Horner. In this exclusive interview, Sara helps us to see James in a way that no one else can. We are escorted into the home and the world that James grew up in during our conversation. We learn how James' father, Harry, played a significant part of shaping James into the man he would become. Sara shares about James' work routine, his work ethic, and describes what the ride was like as James journeyed from a young composer working on small student films, to becoming one of the most successful and famous composers in History. If you are a fan of James Horner, there is no doubt that you will learn much through this wonderful conversation.  A very special thank you to the lovely Sara Horner, for her time and insights. She was a delight to speak with and this conversation will remain as one I will treasure.  If you enjoyed this chat with Sara Horner and know of others who might as well, please share it, leave a kind review or rating.
