He first made his mark as a guitarist and co-writer in Tommy Tutone — yes, the band behind “867-5309/Jenny.” But that was just the beginning. After years on the road, Jim shifted gears and built a remarkable career behind the scenes, managing artists like Philip Glass and helping shape the business side of some of modern music’s most distinctive voices. Now, he’s returned to his own songwriting roots with End of the World — an album that blends grit, humor, and heart in equal measure. In this episode, Jim talks about what it’s like to reinvent yourself in the music world, how his time with Glass changed the way he thinks about creativity, and the stories behind his new record.

After our conversation talking about his new EP, The Confluence, set for releasing on Aug 4, I think it is clear that Cole considers his answers before responding and certainly takes the time to observe the world around him. At only 21 his voice sounds as if it's been around much longer. Cole is clearly a gifted songwriter, and for this record he was fortunate to be backed by some incredible musicians, including members of Jason Isbell's backing band The 400 Unit.

ROSIE (Rosaileen Scher) is a 23-year-old singer/songwriter who got her big break from a viral TikTok post of her song "Never The 1." She gives us the inside look at the days and moments surrounding that event, and it is incredible! ROSIE has a new EP dropping on June 23 called 5 Songs For Healing. Before our interview it was easy to tell that Rosie is a great songwriter, but after speaking with her it became clear that she is also so much more. At only 23, she has the maturity of someone much deeper into their career. Her ability to convert her life's circumstances into relatable songs that are obviously connecting with millions should help her reach her dream, which is to perform and have a positive impact on as many people as possible. https://www.rosiemusicofficial.com/ https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

]]> 1213 no The Strip Club Songs Episode This episode is a little different - it really comes from my endlessly curious brain. Now, I am not a regular attendee of strip clubs. Honestly, they really aren't my thing. But, they are a place where music is played, heard, and completely controls the vibe, so I wanted to talk to some experts and ask them the question that was running through my head.

Baltin got his stories directly from the artists who recorded the songs, conducting interviews with the likes of Joe Perry, Brad Delson of Linkin' Park, and even had a contribution from the famously elusive Tom Waits. As fellow song investigators, we're very impressed with Baltin's work. He does a great job tracing the trajectory of these songs and putting them into context. He posits, for instance, that "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" would be too smart for 2022 but was perfect for 1985, the "golden era of political songwriting."

]]> 2862 no The Prince Episode with Author Arthur Lizie https://www.songfacts.com/ Today on the show we have Arthur Lizie, who has a new book coming out on November 15 called Prince On Prince: Interviews And Encounters. Prince is one of those artists I have loved as long as I can remember but never truly learned much about his story. Through Arthur's book I have discovered why. Prince's relationship with the press was on-again, off-again at best and he did an amazing job at keeping the mystique around his name. I love the way this book reads with chronological interviews that give us a sense of where the artist was at particular times in his life.

]]> 2031 no Lester Chambers of The Chambers Brothers, Moonalice https://www.songfacts.com/ Even by the lofty standards of the late '60s, The Chambers Brothers were visionaries, blending rock, gospel and psychedelia into a musical bouillabaisse seasoned with social awareness. Lester is the third of the four Brothers, who were joined by a white drummer named Brian Keenan. The Chambers family is from Mississippi, but they formed their band in Los Angeles after the oldest brother, George, was discharged from the Army and settled there. "He went to California because he no longer wanted his brothers and sisters to grow up in a place like Mississippi," Lester says. "We got in the car one night and drove up. And, after two-and-a-half to three days we wound up in California, but it was a struggle getting out of Mississippi on the road." They started performing in 1961 and added Keenan in 1965, the year they earned great acclaim with a performance at the Newport Folk Festival, where they went electric hours before Bob Dylan. Their first album, The Time Has Come, was released in 1967 and includes their masterpiece "Time Has Come Today," a song that still rings true five decades later. That album also includes "Uptown," a song you can see the band perform in the documentary Summer Of Soul. We touch on all these topics in this conversation with Lester, who also talks about his latest venture, the band Moonalice. https://www.moonalice.com/splash https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

]]> 2275 no The Mellencamp Episode with Author David Masciotra https://www.songfacts.com/ In this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, we discuss the music and life of John Mellencamp with David Masciotra, author of Mellencamp: American Troubadour. Mellencamp has a reputation for being a bit... prickly, but David saw a different side of him when he was invited to Mellencamp's Indiana studio to conduct an interview. He's one of the few journalists to get such and invitation. There's a lot to be learned from Mellencamp's music, especially when it comes to navigating modern times and reflecting on what's really important in life. He started out using the name "Johnny Cougar" but gradually freed himself of that shackle by becoming wildly successful, giving him the power to call his own shots. His famous songs like "Jack And Diane" and "Small Town" have remarkable staying power, and we discuss those here. But as Masciotra explains, there are some hidden gems in his vast catalog that are well worth a listen. We also look into a great Mellencamp mystery: In "Cherry Bomb," is he singing "that's when a sport was a sport," or "that's when a smoke was a smoke"? https://davidmasciotra.com/ https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

She's probably one of the best singers I've ever heard in my life. ~David Crosby When asked how her 2012 self would react if told she would have David Crosby and Michael McDonald play on one of her albums one day, Michelle Willis would not have been surprised. That's not arrogance, it's self confidence, and Willis oozes with it. She is a performer who knows what she is capable of with her voice, her instrument (keyboard), and her writing. Having spent the last few years with a front-row seat to Crosby's resurgence, playing on two of his most recent albums and touring with his band, we are now treated to Willis' new album Just One Voice out April 8, 2022. On this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Michelle talks about some of the songs on the new album, plays a bit of her amazing song "Janet," and gives us some insight on all things Crosby.

Having spent the last few years with a front-row seat to Crosby's resurgence, playing on two of his most recent albums and touring with his band, we are now treated to Willis' new album Just One Voice out April 8, 2022. On this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Michelle talks about some of the songs on the new album, plays a bit of her amazing song "Janet," and gives us some insight on all things Crosby.

]]> 2907 no Bonnaroo Superjam Producer Paul Peck https://www.songfacts.com/ Today on the show I am speaking with Paul Peck. Paul got his start in the music industry as a student at Tulane University. After an inspiring trip to the New Orleans Jazz Fest, he joined the Superfly team that eventually was involved in organizing the first Bonnaroo festival in 2002. In this episode, we get some behind-the-scenes stories on how that came together, and how he put together "super jams" where artists who ordinarily wouldn't perform together join forces on stage. Paul recently started his own festival, Okeechobee, in Florida and is now serving as the president of the fundraising platform Fandiem. We don't have our normal song samples throughout this episode, but I found Paul's stories of creating and putting on these festivals amazing, and I hope you do as well!

The Vienna-based artist, who performs under her first name, started her musical journey as a classically trained violinist before becoming a global DJ and talent scout for the indie label Stones Throw Records. In 2016, she curated the underground hip-hop and soul compilation Sofie's SOS Tape, which featured her chill Mndsgn collaboration "Abeja." Now she has released her full-length debut solo album, Cult Survivor. Going through the songs on the album it's clear that she isn't afraid to look inward and tap into what she finds for lyrical inspiration. Today on the Songfacts Podcast, Sofie and I chat about some of these new tunes, we examine the way she was feeling as she was writing the album, and she graces us with a stripped-down version of her song "Truth Of The Matter."

Laura Escudé has the answers. Escudé has done design, programming and playback for some very big names: Herbie Hancock, Garbage, Miguel, Demi Lovato. But one name stands out among her clients as an unpredictable genius with a keen eye for visual design and a very complex sonic palette: Kanye West. It's telling that Escudé has worked with Kanye for many years, including on his Watch The Throne tour with Jay-Z. He's not the kind of guy who will stick to a script, so Escudé often had to improvise. Escudé is one of more artistic techies we've encountered. She'll nerd out (her term) as an Ableton instructor, but also plays classical violin so well that Kanye put her on the Watch The Throne track "Made in America."

Released in October 2020 and based on four tracks recorded in April 2019 in Amon's The Bridge Studio, this eclectic mix of tunes is a must listen for any jazz or hip-hop fan. Ben is a producer, mixer, bass player and engineer; Amon, who started off as a percussionist, designs and builds studios, is a producer, tracking engineer (as of late), and a mixing engineer who owns his own studio in Brooklyn, where both artists reside. Today on the show I talk to them about making these tracks and also get into their latest release, Home In America, featuring powerful lyrical accompaniment from Masta Ace. https://analogplayerssociety.bandcamp.com/ www.benrubin.com https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

]]> 2269 no Jock Bartley and Mark Andes of Firefall https://www.songfacts.com/ Firefall didn't set their sights on soft-rock stardom, but they were stuck with it when "You Are The Woman," from their debut album, dug a trench on Adult Contemporary radio, enduring as a staple of at-work listening. On this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, we welcome founding members Jock Bartley and Mark Andes. Jock, on guitar, is Firefall's mainstay, part of every iteration. Mark, their bass player, left in 1980 and returned in 2014. Pre-Firefall, Jock toured with Gram Parsons' band; Mark was a member of Spirit when they toured with Led Zeppelin in 1968 and 1969 - their song "Taurus" seeped into "Stairway To Heaven." He left Firefall in 1980 and picked up with Heart a few years later, just in time for their astounding resurgence. The main songwriters in Firefall were Rick Roberts, last with the band in 1992, and Larry Burnett, who left in 1981. Roberts delivered "You Are The Woman" and the mellow follow-up "Just Remember I Love You"; Burnett came up with the fan favorite "Cinderella." Firefall has been mostly a live act the last few decades, but they put together an album called Comet that was finally released in December 2020 following coronavirus-induced delays. The lead single, "Way Back When," is a trip through three distinct years: 1965, 1967, and 1969. Jock does an acoustic version at the end of show. This Song is a part of Pantheon Podcasts.

That's why Bailey Bryan has branded herself a "sensitive bad bitch," creating a sub-genre that is confident, but also in tune with real emotions. Bryan is just 22 but has already ripened past her jaunty first single, "Own It," released in 2017 when she was 18. She's really on to something with this "sensitive bad bitch" (SBB) movement, which gives her permission to cry sometimes while maintaining her strength and independence.

]]> 3070 yes Baby Fuzz ("Stereo Hearts" co-writer) https://www.songfacts.com/ Before Adam Levine, Benny Blanco and Travie McCoy got to it, "Stereo Hearts" was an emo song Brandon Lowry co-wrote on a piano. Fed into the star-on machine (otherwise known as The Voice, where Levine promoted it), the song got swole, amassing half a billion streams on YouTube alone. Contrast that with Brandon's life as an independent artist. Recording under the alias Baby Fuzz, he makes music with a dark humor that hints at the end times - it's the perspective of an environmentalist. On his last tour (pre-COVID), he slept in his van at Walmart parking lots. Like Greta Thunberg, Brandon is immune to celebrity, which gives him an advantage when working with artists like Madonna and Britney Spears. In this episode, we talk about his approach to superstar collaborations, get the "Stereo Hearts" story, and hear about his latest project, Welcome to the Future (Season 1). https://babyfuzzz.com/home https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

Her new album, It's A Beautiful Day and I Love You, comes out Feb 12 and showcases four years of growth for this talented singer and songwriter. As someone who churns out songs to the tune of a couple hundred every year, you can rest easy knowing these are the cream of the crop.


On this episode, we talk with her about her early days in New York and why she made the move to Nashville. We discuss a handful of her songs, including "Forgive Her" and "I Shouldn't Go Anywhere," which she graciously recorded for this show! We also found out why she declined an offer to compete on The Voice, and what she learned from many hours listening to Joni Mitchell.

]]> 3189 yes Chris Pierce https://www.songfacts.com/ Of the many tear-inducing moments on This Is Us, one of the most powerful comes on the 2017 "Memphis" episode under the song "We Can Always Come Back To This," used in a scene where the cancer-stricken William is comforted by his son. Chris Pierce co-wrote that song, drawing inspiration from the death of his father. Pierce has made a name for himself as a singer and songwriter who can pack a musical wallop, endearing himself to music supervisors who have used his tunes in True Blood, Rosewood, Soul Men, and many other movies and TV shows. In 2020, he lent his voice to the protest movement with the incisive track "It's Been Burning For A While," which became a viral hit when he performed it on a Playing For Change showcase.  In this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Pierce talks about overcoming both racism and deafness to find his voice.

]]> 4013 yes Brothers Koren on Finding Your Musical Cosmology https://www.songfacts.com/ There is a metaphysical side of music we rarely hear about. Consider the question: Will music survive if humans die out? The Brothers Koren - Isaac and Thorald - call this "musical cosmology."  The idea, which Isaac first explored at Northeastern University, is that we all have a unique way of hearing music (eardrums are as unique as fingerprints), and by understanding how we process it, we can understand ourselves. They've been teaching the concept for six years now on "Songwriter's Journey" retreats, which have produced some songs that might be on your playlists (we found out about them through Monique DeBose, who was on the podcast in September). These Aussie brothers formed a group called The Kin in 2001, landed a deal with Interscope, and toured with Pink in 2013. These days, in addition to their duties as musical zen masters, they have a group called Fransancisco, which is set to release their first album in 2021. In this episode, we take a deep dive into our musical cosmologies and hear them perform a few songs.

In this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, we call on her expertise to explain various songwriting techniques (like where to find the power positions for a hook) and to analyze some specific songs, including one of my personal favorites.

]]> 3531 no Dave Rublin of American Authors https://www.songfacts.com/ "Best Day of My Life" is a song we're sure you've heard. It was written and recorded by American Authors: Zac Barnett (vocals), James Shelley (guitar), Dave Rublin (bass), and Matthew Sanchez (drums). Today we bring you a wonderful conversation with Dave, who also does a lot of the production in the band. We go over the band's beginnings at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, find out how their writing and recording have progressed, and talk about their work with Sound Mind, an organization helping to improve mental health services through music. American Authors were writing for their first album, Oh, What a Life, in 2012 when the Sandy Hook tragedy happened not far from where they were working. They reacted by making the kind of music that celebrates the best in us - the kind that gives us home for humanity. They followed with What We Live For in 2016 and Seasons in 2019. Their most recent release is the EP Counting Down, which again finds them in tune with positive vibes. Rublin spoke with us from his living room in his New Jersey apartment. https://www.weareamericanauthors.com/ https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlist https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

There's nothing conventional about Maude Latour, so it's not surprising she learned music through an unconventional method. When she was in Hong Kong, the world-traveling Latour studied the Suzuki Method, an immersive program where she learned how to listen to music before learning how to read it. LaTour has lived in Hong Kong, Sweden, London, and now New York City, where she's a student at Columbia University. Her worldly ways and penchant for journaling make her a formidable lyricist; she's been known to use her powers in songs about ex-boyfriends, including one with a chorus she wrote in the middle of a fight. She's big on Spotify, where she showed up on Indie Pop and Fresh Finds playlists, earning millions of streams. In this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, Maude tells the tales of some of those ex-boyfriend interactions that led to songs, explains the Suzuki Method, and talks about balancing her Ivy League education with her music.

]]> 2686 yes The Damned Founder Rat Scabies https://www.songfacts.com/ Before the Sex Pistols, there was The Damned, but as Rat Scabies (Chris Millar) points out, the pioneers get the arrows, the settlers get the gold. Scabies formed The Damned in 1976 with guitarist Brian James, bass player Captain Sensible, and lead singer Dave Vanian. Their first album, released in 1977, is the punk landmark Damned Damned Damned, which as Scabies explains, took them from opening act to headliners very quickly. That year, they became the first British punk band to tour America. In this episode, Scabies, who was with the band until 1995, recalls the London scene in the dawn of punk, when fisticuffs (sometimes encouraged by Scabies, who would leave his kit to trade blows with audience members) were a byproduct of the energy and excitement. The Damned never tore up the charts, but they left quite a legacy with their look, sound, and performance style. They're still extant, led by Vanian and Sensible, while Scabies has moved on to a number of other projects, including the bands Professor And The Madman, and The Sinclairs.

Right now, he can hit otherworldly notes as frontman for South Of Eden, a rock band (like, a real, unhyphenated rock in the tradition of Guns N' Roses) from Columbus, Ohio. But when he can't sing in that whistle register anymore? "If I end up sounding like Johnny Cash, then it is what it is."

 

Previously known as Black Coffee, South Of Eden play loud and fast and have a great time doing it. Their latest EP, The Talk, was produced by Greg Wells, whose other clients include Carrie Underwood, Twenty One Pilots and Katy Perry.

In 1985, she got a big break when she sang at Silver Dollar City, a Nashville amusement park that Dolly Parton turned into Dollywood the next year. With Parton's endorsement, she became a featured performer at the park and earned a record deal. Bogguss is more of a song interpreter than a songwriter - the title track of her 1989 debut album Somewhere Between is a Haggard cover - but she did co-write one of her biggest hits: "Hey Cinderella," an unconventional take on the famous fairy tale. Speaking from her home in Franklin, Tennessee, Bogguss tells the "Hey Cinderella" story, talks about her Dollywood days, and performs her song "Letting Go." https://www.suzybogguss.com/ https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.

]]> 2368 no Eric Victorino explains how internet killed the video star https://www.songfacts.com/ In 2007, Eric Victorino's band Strata toured with Sonny Moore, who later became Skrillex. Victorino could feel the musical tides shifting away from the rock band model and toward the kind of electronic music generated by DJs or virtual acts. Teaming up with Giovanni Giusti, whom he met online, Eric formed The Limousines and scored in 2010 with "Internet Killed The Video Star," a song portending this musical cybershift. As we've learned from the coronavirus lockdown, the convenience and endless possibility the virtual workspace affords can also lead to anxiety and depression, especially in the setting of an uneasy social and political climate. As Eric explains, he has to make music these days with his own mental health in mind. In the summer of 2020, Victorino re-fired Strata and released an aggressively melodic new tune called "Around The Bend," which he wrote under unusual circumstances with his bandmate Ryan Hernandez. In this episode, Eric talks about building a catharsis into that song, dissects "Internet Killed The Video Star," and explains what it's like going from band member to making music with someone you've never met. This interview took place as he was surrounded by California wildfires, knowing he might have to disconnect and take his family to safer pastures at any time. https://www.facebook.com/wearestrata/ https://www.instagram.com/wearestrata/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/thelimousines/ https://www.instagram.com/ericvictorino/?hl=en https://www.songfacts.com/ https://www.facebook.com/songfacts https://twitter.com/Songfacts http://pantheonpodcasts.com/ https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O’Flanagan https://twitter.com/ofe1818 https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/ Learn more about your ad choices.
