Saturday Feb 19, 2022
What I realized after the fact is that Jarvis Tyner and his brother McCoy Tyner, major influencer of Bebop jazz are both revolutionaries on the same coin when you realize that music is life and life is music. I interviewed Jarvis in NYC 2019. Thank you Tina Nannarone for setting up this interview.

E4 Sarah Crews - Rest in Perennials

Friday Jan 14, 2022
I visited Sarah and her Heart Land Prairie Cemetary in Kansas on my 2019 cross-country build the bridges. I interviewed her in her home and as we strolled through the cemetery. Her podcast called A Path Home inspired me to start mine even though it took two years. It's about reclaiming our innate right to care for our own loved ones at death in natural, and often, environmentally friendly ways.
As you listen to our conversation, I encourage you to hear the music in our voices. Hear it as a song to allow feelings into our conversations around death and dying and loss and grief. I’d love it if you play and or sing along with it.

E3 Playing with Asylum Seekers
Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
This podcast was recorded in May of 2019. I went down to an undisclosed church in Phoenix with my friend David Sorensen, a big bags of clothes, my piano, and a bunch of drums. The story of the Asylum Seekers is a story without an ending. It’s a story that will keep expanding as more and more people get displaced by the effects of the climate disaster which is interwoven with the effects of insane inequality.
I’ve rarely been able to record my interactions with Asylum Seekers on either side of the border. As I recall, this time they let us keep the recorder going after we had this conversation over lunch. It was me, David, a volunteer from One Hundred Angels, and Jen Buck, founder of All Hands AZ
As I listen to this conversation, it reinforces how much I want to keep learning how to talk to people. And how I want to keep learning how to share these conversations with a larger audience. I want to share how much I believe in the power of participatory inclusive music to evolve our relationships and ourselves into something sustainable on this planet.
