from Jrodconcerts: The Podcast · host Jamie A Rodriguez

This week on Jrodconcerts, we're thrilled to welcome back the incredibly talented Emma Swift! Emma joins us to delve deep into her highly anticipated new album, "The Resurrection Game," a poignant and powerful song cycle born from a deeply personal crisis. In this candid conversation, Emma opens up about the raw and transformative experience of creating new music that didn't exist before, sharing insights into her artistic process. We tackle the tough questions: When you're stressed as an artist, do you have to stop? Do you ever get self-conscious with your songs? Emma bravely discusses the nervous breakdown that almost derailed her career, offering a look into her journey of recovery and how it shaped her art. We also get her take on the Bob Dylan movie and hear all about the unique experience of working with high standards while recording "The Resurrection Game" at Chale Abbey, a stunning 16th-century abbey on the Isle of Wight that's been transformed into a world-class recording studio. From intimate confessions to philosophical musings, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the creative process, mental health in the arts, and the power of turning personal struggle into breathtaking music.
