This episode is a bit different - it's the first without ANY music!  We talk with author and teaching artist Eric Booth, widely known as "the father of the teaching artist profession," about his new book Making Change - Teaching Artists and Their Role in Shaping A Better World.  He's worked with Carnegie Hall, Juilliard, Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center, and around the world in all types of settings.  This is a fascinating look into a little known but highly impactful profession that uses the arts to attempt to solve some of the most intractable problems of our time.  Spoiler alert:  He offers free books at the end! www.teachingartistsmakingchange.com   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

Grammy-nominated guitarist, producer, and songwriter Thomm Jutz discusses his upcoming project with award-winning English guitarist Martin Simpson.  The album, Nothing But Green Willow: The Songs of Mary Sands and Jane Gentry, is comprised of ballads from English folklorist Cecil Sharp's 1916-1918 collection, English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians, particularly those tunes from singers Mary Sands and Jane Gentry.  On this album, Simpson and Jutz brought together a mix of roots artists from both sides of the pond—Sierra Hull, Angeline Morrison, Odessa Settles, Tim O’Brien, Tammy Rogers, Seth Lakeman, and more—to create an homage to the bridge from Appalachia to England and back, just as the songs of Sands and Gentry originally did.  The album is available September 29th on Topic Records.     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

Acclaimed singer-songwriter Eilen Jewell discusses her new album, Get Behind The Wheel, out now on Signature Sounds.  The Washington Post's description of Eilen is perhaps most apt: "...if Neko Case, Madeleine Peyroux and Billie Holiday had a baby girl who grew up to front a rockabilly band, she'd probably sound a lot like Eilen Jewell."   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.

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.
