Discussing the Black Austin Musicians' Collective with Mobley24 Feb 202100:19:13
Today’s episode (131) features Austin-based musician and activist, Mobley, a co-founder of the Black Austin Musicians' Collective. The Collective was borne out of the dual impacts of COVID-19 and protests for Black equality and equity in 2020. Its mission is to strengthen the community, industry, and political power of its members. Mobley and Bingham Group CEO A.J. dig into the founding of the Collective, and what’s ahead in 2021, including the Black Austin Musicians Census. MUSIC: The opening and closing music for this episodes comes from Mobley’s single “Mate” off of his new album (OUT NOW): Young & Dying in the Occident Supreme. Used with the artist's permission. BLACK AUSTIN MUSICIANS’ COLLECTIVE LINKS IG -> @blkatxmusicians Twitter -> @blkatxmusicians Linktree -> https://linktr.ee/blkatxmuscians Facebook > https://www.facebook.com/Black-Austin-Musicians-101423091773460/ ABOUT MOBLEY Austin-based artist Mobley grew up all over the world, from the Spanish Mediterranean to the California coast. Perhaps it’s because of this itinerant childhood that he finds it so hard to sit still. Mobley does it all: he's a songwriter, producer, visual artist, filmmaker, and a charismatic frontman with a reputation for kinetic live shows. He’s composed dozens of pieces for stage and television (HBO, FOX, NBC, ESPN), and played hundreds of US and international tour dates (with the likes of Phantogram, JUNGLE, Cold War Kids, and James Blake, and at festivals including Lollapalooza, ACL, Voodoo, and Hangout). Mobley wrote most of his new record, Young & Dying in the Occident Supreme, while in Thailand, finding inspiration as an outsider looking in on his own country from a different vantage. Young & Dying is a sonic critique of white supremacy, a theme Mobley felt even more urgently while not in the United States. The record glides between musical idioms with all the ease you’d expect from someone who grew up a perennial new kid, with Mobley at turns cribbing Ennio Morricone, keening over a psychedelic gallop, or indulging in a futuristic art rock strut. Young & Dying in the Occident Supreme was released via Last Gang Records on February 19, 2021.

Episode 125: Shifting to a Strong Mayor System with Austinites for Progressive Reform20 Jan 202100:18:06
On today’s show we speak with Andrew Allison, Chair of Austinites for Progressive Reform. He and Bingham Group CEO A.J. dive into what the group's charter amendments, particularly moving to a strong mayor system, could mean for Austin. This episode is part of a two part series on the Austin strong mayor debate. Also check out BG Podcast 124: Shifting to a Strong Mayor System with Austinites for Progressive Reform -> https://soundcloud.com/the-bingham-group-llc/episode124 BACKGROUND In July 2020, Austinites for Progressive Reform launched calling for four reforms, including adopting a mayor-council form of government, i.e. a strong mayor system. This would transfer the city manager’s duties to the mayor. The city of Austin is currently run under a council-manager system, with power and authority to set policy resting with the city council. The council in turn hires a nonpartisan manager who runs the city (including hiring and firing personnell). The city of Houston is the only major Texas city with a strong mayor system. On Monday, January 11th, Austinites for Progressive Reform filed 24,000 signatures for four city charter amendments (Austin’s constitution). A certification by the City Clerk would then trigger May 1 election.
