Lee Barbour

This week's special return-for-the-first-time guest is one of Charleston's best, Mr. Lee Barbour. Film scoring; songwriting; improvising; living in the moment; creating a "womb-like atmosphere"; Tim Hecker; emotion in music...as well as many other things relative to Lee's art and creative pursuits.

Dan Patrick and Whitt Algar

Dan Patrick and Whitt Algar graciously sit down with us to discuss their views on everything from "bullet belts and lipstick" to their band New Ghost Town. I had a great time hosting these two gentlemen, and they are definitely two of Charleston's most enduring performers and songwriters. This episode also features some great bumper music from guitarist Mike Miller (with me on upright bass, just to remain transparent). * New Ghost Town [https://www.instagram.com/newghosttown/] * Broken Skyline [https://www.gigsalad.com/broken_skyline_mount_pleasant] * Mandolins And Beer [https://mandolinsandbeer.com/] * Around The Clock [https://danielpatrickmusic.bandcamp.com/album/around-the-clock] * Sounds About Right [https://open.spotify.com/artist/0IbHWwWCkZiTGB4J0R6A4k] * Maybank Public House [https://maybankpublichouse.com/]

Noah Jessup and Jamal Hall

Talking with Noah and Jamal was a truly great experience...both men are deep thinkers and were quite inspiring regarding community and creativity. Plenty of original music featured on this episode for everyone to enjoy. Give us a listen and a share.

Brass Spotlight

For this episode, SMP takes a deep dive into the world of brass. This is the first episode to also feature a guest-host, Mr. Andy Masker, who is also much more knowledgeable on this subject...so I largely stayed out of his way on this one. Dr. David Carter, Hank Bilal, and Chris Williams are the featured guests...lots of great music here. Give us a listen and a share if you like what we're doing.
