The Craft Brewed Music Podcast

Grammy-winner Bill Frisell is universally admired for his work as a guitarist and composer and for creating new sounds in American music.  But "collaborator" may be the title that best exemplifies his approach, and it forms the basis for his latest album, FOUR.  We were thrilled to hear his insights on this beautiful work.   Craft Brewed Music® The music discovery app that streams music for serious listeners - now included free and forever "in" the Music Discovery App Pint Glass (downloaded via QR printed on glass). http://www.craftbrewedmusic.com   The Craft Brewed Music Podcast Music interviews for serious listeners.

Bassist/songwriter/producer/composer Viktor Krauss has a resume that is noteworthy both for its quality and its quantity.  He's had long tenures with artists as dissimilar as Lyle Lovett and Bill Frisell, toured as part of the recent Robert Plant & Alison Krauss "Raise the Roof" tour, and has a handful of fascinating solo releases.  We were thrilled to have him on the show!      Craft Brewed Music® The music discovery app that streams music for serious listeners. http://www.craftbrewedmusic.com   The Craft Brewed Music Podcast Music interviews for serious listeners.

CBM artist and friend Richard Bennett returns to the show to talk about his new album (which he hinted at in his earlier appearance on Episode 4), New Folk Faves & Tall Tale Tunes.  Richard was articulate, funny, and self-effacing, as always, and we thoroughly enjoyed the chat.     Craft Brewed Music® The music discovery app that streams music for serious listeners. http://www.craftbrewedmusic.com   The Craft Brewed Music Podcast Music interviews for serious listeners.

"Hallucinatory keyboard wizard" (and CBM artist) Marco Benevento discusses his recent release, Benevento.  It's a nod to Paul McCartney's first solo album, and is a similarly loose, low-key affair.  We connected with Marco as he was working in his home studio (and playroom), and loved our guided tour of the new album.   Craft Brewed Music® The music discovery app that streams music for serious listeners.

Ali McGuirk's brand new album (and Signature Sounds label debut), Til It's Gone, was released last Friday.  Til It's Gone is the rare record that features a young artist relaxing into tender, homey spaces and pushing herself emotionally and sonically.  We enjoyed having her take us through it!   Craft Brewed Music® The music discovery app that streams music for serious listeners.
