283: Samora Pinderhughes and Jack DeBoe

Composer, pianist, vocalist, and multidisciplinary artist Samora Pinderhughes and drummer/producer Jack DeBoe on their long standing collaborative relationship, what happens when art confronts life's heaviest themes, but the creators meet it with laughter, lightness, and trust.  Captured at Winter Jazzfest in early 2024, Samora and Jack talk about the album Venus Smiles Not in the House of Tears, the transformative Healing Project, mental health, and how laughter becomes a tool of resilience in the face of struggle. It's serious, it's playful, and it's deeply human. https://www.third-story.comhttps://leosidran.substack.com
