LEGEND Kenny Wollesen made it to the radio show! iconic drummer from Bill Frisell’s band, Sexmob, and Laurie Anderson, and luckily, my band too. he also builds instruments, or as he calls it: Wollesonics.

This episode is exactly the reason I do this radio show. Getting to sit with one of the best drummers in the world, Joe Strasser, and talking openly about things personal to us and our music. Our convo dipped into deep stuff about addiction and alcoholism- the lies, denial, rehab, sobriety, and falling in love with music again. Thank you Joe for being so open. Go listen to Joe every Monday at 11 street bar & look out for his new jazz club coming soon, 'One Flight Up'.

Jazz singer Kate Kortum joins The Dida Show to talk about her new single Love Me Or Leave Me, her upcoming album, life at Juilliard, and singing with her trio, the Sunhouse Singers. Lots of singing wisdom—and we played two tunes: Stompin’ at the Savoy and Little Red Top.
