Drew Holcomb

Season 2 · Episode 10

Tuesday, December 22, 2020 • Duration 49:17

This week’s Past, Present, Future, Live! features an intimate conversation and performance with Drew Holcomb, songwriter and frontman for Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors. Born and raised in Memphis, Drew built a committed following through years of touring a circuit of the South’s major cities, and watched the gigs grow larger with each return trip. In 2011, Drew and the band earned wider recognition when his song “Live Forever” was featured in multiple TV shows, breaking through and establishing Drew as one of the faces of the new Americana scene. Drew has a thoughtful and academic approach to music—he has a Masters in Theology where his thesis explored Bruce Springsteen—and this comes through in his music, which Drew describes as the place he found the sort of meaning others find through religion.

Drew just released a new live album, “Live at the Tennessee Theatre,” that captures highlights of a standout performance from their last tour before quarantine, in support of the 2019 album “Dragons.” The first song off of Dragons, “Family,” is an ode to how Drew’s own experience as one of 28 grandkids continues to define him as an artist and a father.

On this episode Drew discusses all of that and more, including his incredible relationship with his wife and longtime musical collaborator Ellie, and how he’s grown to appreciate managing the business side of his music.

At the end of the episode, you’ll hear Drew play “American Beauty”, “Family”, and “Dragons”. You can see videos of these and all other Past, Present, Future, Live! performances on our and on the .

Season 2 · Episode 6

Tuesday, December 1, 2020 • Duration 57:10

This week’s episode of Past, Present, Future, Live! features a conversation and performance with guitarist Jessica Dobson of Deep Sea Diver.

Jessica grew up around California’s indie rock scene and got signed to Atlantic Records as a solo act at age 19 before playing guitar with Beck, Spoon, The Shins, and many other groups.

Jessica produced the record, and on the episode she talks about the difference between producing and playing, the evolution of her guitar playing, and the serendipity of working with Sharon Van Etten.

Larkin Poe

Season 2 · Episode 5

Tuesday, November 24, 2020 • Duration 58:17

“I think the choices that we've made in terms of genre have really been bent towards leveling a playing field. Because at a certain point you realize the number of female artists you can listen to in the rock sphere, especially the classic rock sphere, are so limited...So I know that had to be a driving factor for us; wanting to prove people wrong, to do something that felt a little bit incongruous." --Rebecca Lovell

Rebecca and Megan Lovell, the incredibly talented sisters behind Larkin Poe, join RJ to talk about their musical evolution, from their early years as classical violinists to discovering classic rock in their teens, to forming the band and producing their own albums. They discuss what it was like to play their first ‘plugged in show’ (terrifying) and tour with some of their musical heroes, and how they’re changing the status quo for women in music.

At the end of the episode, you’ll hear them perform “Who Do You Love”, “She's A Self Made Man”, and “Holy Ghost Fire.”

Larkin Poe’s latest release, Kindred Spirits, is available everywhere.

You'll find music from all the artists mentioned in this interview on the Past, Present, Future, Live! Larkin Poe Spotify playlist.

MC Taylor

Season 2 · Episode 4

Tuesday, November 17, 2020 • Duration 58:47

I wasn't doing it to make money. Money would have been nice, but that was nowhere close to my priority list. What I was trying to do was get inside the way that the music that I love works.

- MC Taylor

This week, we bring you an interview with MC Taylor of Hiss Golden Messenger. MC tells RJ about the transformation he underwent when he was writing music in North Carolina and forming his band, Hiss Golden Messenger.

Nicole Atkins

Season 2 · Episode 3

Tuesday, November 10, 2020 • Duration 59:35

“I feel like I’m kind of a collector, you know? I kind of go about my life and pick up all the things I like and then when the box becomes full, I combine all of those things in the box and make that my thing.” - Nicole Atkins

Throughout her career, Nicole Atkins’ musical approach has combined 50s-style crooning with psychedelia, soul, and 80’s punk, all of which help to create her truly unique sound. In this episode, she tells us about her writing process, the evolution of her sound, and what happened when Rick Rubin altered the course of her debut album, Neptune City. Nicole tells RJ about a life-altering moment when she ended up on stage with Donny and Marie, and explains why her latest album, Italian Ice, is an ode to summertime in New Jersey boardwalk towns.

At the end of the episode, you’ll hear Nicole perform stunning versions of her songs Forever, Captain and Mind Eraser.
