Episode 298: Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers

Episode 298

Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 01:37:53

Jano Rix is on Roadcase this week, and I couldn’t be more psyched to share this amazing interview. Jano has been behind the drum kit in The Wood Brothers now for almost 15 years, and his magical drumming, percussion, keys, and vocals add that critical third dimension to the trio’s wonderful musical exploration that is at the heart of The Wood Brothers unique sound. The band’s sonic journey continues with their latest album Puff of Smoke, which came out August 1.

Jano comes by his musical talent quite honestly — his Dad, noted drummer Luther Rix, had Jano playing drums by the time he was only 3 or 4 years old. And now, Jano and his Dad have together released an album, Legacy Vol. 1, with their new collab project, RIX. It’s a delightful album with the heartwarming story of a father, a son, and their lifelong shared musical connection. For Jano, this album was a long time coming.

Jano also talks to me about how the hand of fate brought him to The Wood Brothers and we discuss what it means to join the band that he once adored as a fan — how discovering their music was a true revelation for him. And he describes to me that when he got the call from Oliver, he had truly found his musical home. It’s a serendipitous and fateful path that led Jano to this current place, and it’s an amazing story.

Jano is kind, funny, and full of wonderful surprises, and you won’t want to miss this epic and unique story!!

Episode 297: Roadcase on the Road Part 2 featuring Jeff Lucci and Kirby Sybert of Mo Lowda & The Humble

Episode 297

Wednesday, November 12, 2025 • Duration 01:39:26

I caught up once again with Mo Lowda & The Humble on their Tailing the Ghost Tour for their recent shows in Birmingham and Nashville. On this episode, I continue my Roadcase on the Road Series, as I feature interviews with the two “newest” members of Mo Lowda, bassist Jeff Lucci and guitarist Kirby Sybert. At the tail-end of this seven-week tour, the band is totally in the pocket, vibes are high and the entire operation was a well-oiled machine. And their playing followed suit: these guys were super “tour tight,” and the shows (and crowds) were simply outstanding!

I was delighted to interview Jeff and Kirby for separate, one-on-one interviews before they hit the stage at Nashville's Basement East. Both dudes are totally chill, fun guests, and of course, conversation flows as it does between friends, and it’s a super intimate look at tour dynamics, their individual backgrounds and creative styles, and how they have both become important and integral parts of this tight-knit unit of extraordinary musicians.

Episode 288: Lollapalooza Part 3 with Malik Flint (bLAck pARty) and Eric Ojeda and Charlie Baird of benches

Episode 288

Monday, August 18, 2025 • Duration 47:58

I’m capping off the Lollapalooza Series with today’s Part 3 from Chicago’s Grant Park, including interviews with first-timers Malik Flint of bLAck pARty, along with Evan Ojeda and Charlie Baird of San Diego rock band benches.

Malik is an LA-based artist originally from Arkansas (hence the LA and AR of bLAck pARty), who for over a decade now has been creating compelling beats mixing funk, afrobeats and hip hop with a dash of country and R&B. The excitement of this young artist has been on full display and he’s cultivated a working relationship with Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino as well as Issa Rae. His latest album, The Last Dance, is out there now!

Evan Ojeda and Charlie Baird are childhood pals and now make up one-half of the band benches. First timers at Lolla, these guys bring the SoCal energy to the festival. Their latest effort, an EP entitled “Kill The Lights” has put them on the map as a force in the glam rock world, and I’m excited for what’s in store for this fun and super talented band from California!

Newport Folk Festival Series Part 4, featuring Mereba, Jerry Douglas, Jupiter Bokondji (Jupiter and Okwess), and The Harlem Gospel Travelers

Episode 198

Thursday, August 17, 2023 • Duration 01:34:49

The Newport Folk Festival Series continues and I'm really excited to bring you this outstanding and diverse group of artists for the penultimate chapter of in-person interviews I conducted live at Fort Adams.

I'm kicking off this installment with the amazing singer songwriter Mereba, whose folk / soul hybrid style of artistry is nothing short of stunning. I have a super chill convo with Mereba, a truly gentle soul -- and a massive Bob Dylan fan -- who had dreamt of playing at Newport Folk.

Next, it's Bluegrass time in the Media Tent, as I have a rousing and super fun conversation with the one and only Bluegrass legend and 15-time Grammy winner, Jerry Douglas. It's a laugh a minute as Jerry and I talk about how traditional bluegrass has morphed into its modern form while still respecting its roots.

I then attempt to use my high school French skills (but mostly the interpreter) in my convo with Jupiter Bokondji of Jupiter and Okwess, who comes from the Congo by way of Berlin to bring us his magical mixture of African beats, dance moves, and psychedelic rock. I talk to Jupiter about his role as a trailblazer and he explains to me the secrets of Okwess: how he nourishes the world with his musical vibes.

Rounding out Part 4 and taking our souls and spirits higher is The Harlem Gospel Travelers: Ifedayo Gatling, George Marage and Dennis Bailey. They talk to me about how you don't have to be a Believer for gospel and to raise you up and make you feel it. Their sets are a true inspiration and further proof that the power of music is REAL.

I'm so grateful to be able to bring you inside the Media Tent with these amazing artists who each bring such a unique and indelible vibe to the stage, into our lives and beyond. Enjoy and Rock On!!

Newport Folk Festival Series Part 3 featuring Jaime Wyatt, Abraham Alexander, Raye Zaragoza, and Aaron Vance and Tylar Bryant (Black Opry Revue)

Episode 197

Tuesday, August 15, 2023 • Duration 01:18:49

The Newport Folk Festival vibe is in full-effect as I swing into the third segment of this illuminating five-part in-person interview series, this time around featuring five dynamic artists from the worlds of Folk, Americana, Roots and Country and each one performing for the first time at Newport Folk. Join me, Josh Rosenberg, as I talk to Jaime Wyatt about how being super comfortable in her own skin has transformed her life; and she's on a roll now with a new album, Feel Good, coming out November 3. I also have a mellow chat with Abraham Alexander who has an amazing -- and at times sadly tragic -- story which he recounts to me and has documented in his wonderful debut album SEA/SONS. In the third slot, I have a simply delightful and fun convo with rising star and all-around great hang, Raye Zaragoza, whose strong spirit embodies a sense of openness and inclusivity, paving her way as an advocate for Women's Rights and greater representation for People of Color. And to round out this amazing episode, I talk to Aaron Vance and Tylar Bryant, who are part of the Black Opry collective and talk to me about their lifelong devotion to Country music and how Black Opry gave them opportunities they didn't think were possible for young black artists searching for inspiration. This is truly a wonderful collection of unique and talented artists and I'm here to give you all the interviews direct from Newport Folk!!

Newport Folk Festival Series Part 1: Danielle Ponder

Episode 195

Friday, August 11, 2023 • Duration 57:30

We're back from the 2023 edition of Newport Folk Festival with loads of in-person interviews to share. First up in this five-part series is the amazing Danielle Ponder! Danielle is an exceptional artist known for her honest and empowering live shows which serve as a platform of self-affirmation, self-love and self-acceptance. Her debut album from 2022, Some Of Us Are Brave, is even more evidence of her power as an artist, storyteller and voice of truth. "Roll The Credits," Danielle's latest, just-released single, confirms her place as one of the most compelling artists of today. Josh talks to Danielle about what it means to truly live in the moment and not only explore what is that special passion that drives all of us but what are -- and how to confront -- the roadblocks that can stand in our way. It is a freeing and wholly validating interview filled with laughs, sighs, and genuine moments of self-discovery. This is a special one, Roadcase Fam, and we're here for it!!

Nick Larson and Kevin Middlekauf (Proxima Parada)

Episode 192

Wednesday, July 26, 2023 • Duration 01:26:43

We're finally easing into summermode this week with our last full interview of the season and this is a great one! Proxima Parada's Nick Larson and Kevin Middlekauf have been friends since college in San Luis Obispo, CA, and have crafted a musical career together underpinned by the strong support of their fans and local community. Now, almost ten years into this, they're on their fifth album, Second Brother, released in 2021 and their free-flowing and sun-soaked indie soul vibes feel fresh and organic as ever -- most apropos for a native-California band. While their growing fanbase had been built on hardwork and much love, in late 2022, when a video clip of their music went viral on a popular TikTok channel and earned over 30 million views, these guys were launched well beyond their expectations -- a much welcomed turn of events for any band, let alone for Nick and Kevin who love to tour, meet their fans, and connect with audiences in a live setting. With two new singles currently out, "So Many Ways to Get Downtown," and "Tunnel Through a Mountain," these ambassadors of forward motion are ready to roll through 2023 and beyond! Come learn more about how Proxima Parada balances success while remaining true to one's self and loyal to their community on this episode of Roadcase.
