For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Tashi Wada! This episode unfolds a little bit differently than usual, but the general spirit of it is right in the sweet spot. Tashi’s new album, “What Is Not Strange?” is such a beautiful, vulnerable expression that reveals itself through deep, focused listening. After talking a bit about that, we move into memories of his father’s music, the emotional weight of Philip Glass, La Monte Young’s sonic middle finger, having fun with Hosono, Pandit Pran Nath, and so much more.

On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Joe Rainey! His new project, Bizhiki, with Dylan Bizhikiins Jennings and Sean Carey, have made one of 2024’s best albums, “Unbound.” The combination of traditional and ceremonial rhythms and singing melded with contemporary production and instrumentation results in a moving, powerful album unlike anything else. We talked a lot about Rainey’s history with pow wows and pow wow singing while growing up on the south side of Minneapolis before digging into songs that have stuck with him. We get into the all-time greatness of Buddy Red Bow, formative connections with 90s R&B luminaries like SWV, Donny Hathaway’s romantic notions, sadness in Willie Nelson’s voice, wake singing, Nevad Brave, and so much more.
