I finally get to tell you that Band in Seattle is switching to KING 5! I had to keep that under wraps for a while. This is so big for that show.
An NBC affiliate. Conrad Denke has put his heart and soul into that show, and working with him has been one of the experiences of my career in music & television. The fact he took the time to make sure he credited me as an associate producer for the work I did in England, Jamaica, an here at home on the Christmas Specials says a lot about what he wants to do and has done for this scene.
It’s the little things. Someday that show is going to be in syndication and you are going to see your friends, and neighbors, and stars before they were famous, participating in music in a way that has never been captured and documented in history.
Conrad is kind of our Alan Lomax and he’s the grandfather I never had. Real talk.
