jamestown revival

This show is going to be a little different from our usual programming. As I’m sure you’ve noticed- we’ve taken a little bit of a break over the last few months as we’ve taken the time to regroup, and reconstruct etc. As we move forward, it is important to us to reiterate that we are still very much dedicated as a platform to the expansion and definition of Americana Music through conversations with those working within its spectrum.

This show has come a very long way from its initial launch. From interview formatting, the artists we book, the kind of questions we ask, and the locations we’ve been- it's grown and expanded in ways I don’t think we could have ever imagined. And admittedly, sometimes it's hard to appreciate the work we’ve done as we look at the work we want to do. 

As we plot out that future, we wanted to take this time and opportunity to look back on some of our favorite moments that we’ve had. In our very first Artist's Archive, we go back to the very beginning and revisit some of the best times with artists we love and cover everything from the hardest conversations to the most rewarding laughs and all topped off with the music we all love so well. We hope you enjoy this nod to our past and continue to join us as we look (or should I say listen) to the future.

Sean and Jess discuss the joys of discovering great new music, movies , and books and how they push that "euphoria button" in us all. 

In the summer of 2018, we said  "We need to talk about Americana music". At the time it felt that there was an apparent disconnect in not only the discussion around the genre but in the would-be community as well. Industry workers and audiences were leading the conversation, but there appeared to be a disturbing absence of input from the most important individuals in American-roots-based music… The artists themselves. 

On April 30th, 2019, after a year of writing, recording, and refining- Americana Podcast was released into the world. We have recorded in studios, green rooms, and in front of live audiences. We have stayed up into the wee hours of the morning researching, conducting interviews, and editing.. (so much editing..) and have dedicated ourselves to defining not only the genre but the experience fo Americana artists, with parameters set by the artists themselves. 

On this one-year anniversary episode, Zach Chance and Jonathon Clay of Jamestown Revival are back...but on their recommendation, with a twist. Zach and John turn the tables and interview host and moderator of Americana Podcast, Robert Earl Keen.  So join us from the BMI offices in Austin, TX as we celebrate our one-year anniversary episode and look to the future of Americana music.
