Episode Another NEW SHOW Recommendation from Jad Abumrad! Our Common Nature Cover

Another NEW SHOW Recommendation from Jad Abumrad! Our Common Nature

Jad Abumrad sits down with host Ana González to talk about her new podcast, Our Common Nature [https://link.podtrac.com/v7mx144d], a musical journey with cellist Yo-Yo Ma. As the conversation reveals, Jad actually helped connect Ana with Yo-Yo Ma! When the world stopped in 2020, Yo-Yo Ma started thinking about how music can reconnect people to the natural world. In this limited podcast series, Yo-Yo goes around the country to places where people have deep connections to the earth.  Host Ana González joins him to uncover stories of how culture binds us to nature, from Maine to Appalachia and Hawaii. The result is a seven-episode series that fuses music, personal narratives, and local histories from across the United States.   Subscribe here [https://link.podtrac.com/v7mx144d] to listen to more episodes from Our Common Nature series.

Episode Jad Abumrad’s new show - Fela Kuti: Fear No Man Cover

Jad Abumrad’s new show - Fela Kuti: Fear No Man

In a world that’s on fire, what do we do with art? Like, what can music actually do?  Today, Jad Abumrad is back with his first major project since Dolly Parton’s America.  Fela Kuti: Fear No Man is a twelve episode exploration of the life, work, and legacy of the Nigerian singer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, one of  the most important musical artist of the 20th century.  Back in the 1960s and 70s, Fela invented a new style of music that was part jazz, part funk, part African polyrhythms and instrumentation. And it had resistance baked into its core.  Today, Fela has been forgotten by many. Almost erased.  Fela Kuti: Fear No Man excavates his life’s work and finds it says as much about today, this moment, as it does about the past.  Find Fela Kuti: Fear No Man on Audible [https://www.audible.com/pd/Fela-Kuti-Fear-No-Man-Audiobook/B0FRCQHHXN] and wherever you listen to podcasts.

The Vanishing of Harry Pace Trailer from the Creators of Dolly Parton's America

Hi, Dolly Parton's America fans! We're sharing a new trailer for our new 6-part series The Vanishing of Harry Pace -from the creators of Dolly Parton's America, Jad Abumrad and Shima Oliaee - now premiering at Radiolab. It was Motown before Motown, FUBU before FUBU: Black Swan Records. The label founded 100 years ago by Harry Pace. Pace launched the career of Ethel Waters, Louis Armstrong, inadvertently invented the term rock n roll, played an important role in W.C. Handy becoming "Father of the Blues," inspired Ebony and Jet magazines, and helped desegregate the South Side of Chicago in an epic Supreme Court battle. Then, he disappeared. The Vanishing of Harry Pace is a series about the phenomenal but forgotten man who changed America. It's a story about betrayal, family, hidden identities, and a time like no other. To listen to the the new series, search "The Vanishing of Harry Pace" and "Radiolab," wherever you get your podcasts.
