The Singers Talk

著者: Jason Thomas Gordon
  • サマリー

  • Welcome to The Singers Talk podcast based on my book of the same name. I’m Jason Thomas Gordon (singer/drummer of the Los Angeles rock band Kingsize), and when I first started singing for my band, I couldn’t believe there was no resource to find out how singers do this brutal job night after night. For something that seems easy, it can be truly dangerous, often embarrassing, and when you’re lucky… absolutely glorious. So, this is me, reaching out to some of the greatest, most iconic singers of our time, discussing the one the thing they’re never asked about: their voices! Never thinking this was going to be a podcast, most of the interviews you’re going to hear are the intimate conversations, as I write the actual book… If you’re a music fan, you’ll get a backstage look at how your favorite vocalists approach what they do onstage and in the studio. Packed with amazing stories you’ve never heard before, you’ll also find vulnerable sides of their personalities you might never have expected. And if you’re a singer, trying to train, help, heal, or even find your voice — you’ll learn how the best in their field keep their vocal cords in shape, how they protect themselves on the road, and countless other tricks, strategies, and philosophies… Not a technical podcast in any way, The Singers Talk celebrates the people who stand up in front of that mic, reach down into their guts, and give everything they’ve got for the sake of the song. Sometimes it’s bloody. And sometimes it’s bloody hilarious.

    Welcome to The Singers Talk Podcast based on my book of the same name. This week you’ll hear my conversation with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Geddy Lee from Rush. Have you ever tried to sing with blood gushing from your nose, down your face, in front of 20,00 people? Well, Geddy’s gonna tell you all about it. In this episode you’re gonna hear us break down what it takes to be the guy who had the Herculean task of playing all those insane bass parts, while singing all demanding vocals, plus memorizing all the lyrics written by Neil Peart. We speak about how Geddy and the band meticulously prepared for shows, how he became a full blown germaphobe, how he survived all those nights on the road playing three hours sets, how his voice has changed throughout the years, the importance of what key you’re singing in… and how it felt to say goodbye to the band and their fans on the night of their final show as Rush. All that and much more… All my writer’s royalties from sales of the book benefit the kids and families at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through our Music Gives to St. Jude Kids campaign.
