LAST EPISODE OF 2021 - “WE’LL BE BACK”

For some of us 2021 was the first time we had heard the name Charlie Watts. But for others he had always been that drummer sitting at the back of the Rolling Stones - a man who lived a life almost at opposites with everything we know about the Stones. A man that scaled the heights of Rock n roll while wearing a tailor made three piece suit. Todays guest is Alan Clayson, English singer-songwriter, author and music journalist. Starting his career as the leader of 70s rock band, he would eventually establish himself as a prolific writer of music biographies covering Beatles, The Stones, Roy Orbison, Led Zeppelin, the list goes on! In short Alan knows his rock n roll and it was so much fun to just chew into some history and crazy rock n roll stories with him. We recorded this just after Charlie Watts passing in late 2021, and we talk about Charlie Watts career and life as a jazz drummer who found himself outrageously successful playing music he had never planned too with the Stones - we cover some outrageous facts and stories of Rock n roll life how Charlie and Mick where kind of two ends of the spectrum and we dig into how Alan writes and selects his musical subjects.Don’t forget to follow me everywhere @bradleymccawofficial and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts!Alan Clayson WebsiteListen of Alan Clayson's BooksListen to Charlie WattsListen to The Rolling StonesListen to Bradley McCawHosted by Bradley McCawSound design by Matt Erskine &amp; Cross Point SolutionsAssistant Engineering by Gilang CandradityaTheme composed by James RyanProduced by Old Fashioned Media.

Episode 19 - The Predators

What does that term ‘artist’ mean? How and where do we learn how to be one? And how do artists actually support themselves and others in a community and business that can be isolating, competitive and ultimately terribly rewarding and meaningful. Todays guest is Tyran Park Australia’s award-winning singer, actor, director and recording artist. He is currently the Head of Music Theatre at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA), the Executive Producer of the Australian Musical Theatre Festival and the Artistic Director of Clovelly Fox Theatre Company.This chat recorded in his office at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, 2019 is one of the more personal episodes we have released so far. This chat that does focus more on theatre and musical theatre - we dig deep into how we feel about writing, being artists, making art in Australia.We take turns name dropping some of our favourite colleagues and idols including Hal Prince, and explore how the greats develop their skills and relationships, while making art they are proud of. If you are enjoying the program maybe take a moment to go follow wherever you get your podcasts! Don’t forget to share this with a friend or enemy - nothing better than helping someone you dislike with a great program they might fall in in love wit.And a quick side note, I do reference my first musical here BECOMING BILL - if you want to hear more about that or listen you’ll find al that in the show notes.Quick story, this episode started with Tyran and I chatting on the phone for hours about a project I was trying to create. I was in a airport bar, waiting for a flight and it was such a fun and informative chat I asked if he would come on the show. I’m so thrilled he agreed. Although, I didn’t expect to start with me asking about a list on the wall of his office… “5 performers that can chat and cry at the same time.” Listen to Becoming BillMore about TyranWho is Hal Prince?More about BradleyProduced by Old Fashioned StudiosHosted by Bradley McCawSound design by Matt Erskine &amp; Cross Point SolutionsStory Producer &amp; additional engineering by Gilang CandradityaTheme composed by James Ryan

How do you make a new record during, what my next guest calls his “grumpy old man stage?” Recorded during the 2020/21 covid epidemic and it’s series of lockdowns, he discovered a surprise romanticism and joy, inspired by a cynicism he felt looking at the things we become as people as a community.. and as a music business. Todays guest is Shane Nicholson the Australian singer-songwriter from Brisbane. He’s released 11 albums, won 3 ARIA Awards, 11 Golden Guitars, and has twice been named Producer of the Year at the Country Music Awards of Australia.
