Where American Music Began with John Michael Rouchell (G-Eazy, Avery*Sunshine, Galactic)

New Orleans is a special place. Just ask Grammy Award-winning John Michael Rouchell. He’s from there and made incredible music with the legends. We talk the history, the prestige, the joy, and the energy of New Orleans. It’s that passion and dedication that led Disney to work with John on Tiana's Bayou Adventure, the ride that updated Splash Mountain at Disneyland. When you’re on a ride — with the music spilling over just like the water itself — now THAT’S a compositional challenge!For 30% off your first year of DistroKid to share your music with the world click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DistroKid.com/vip/lovemusicmore⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to this pod's blog on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to receive deeper dives on the regular 🏊‍♂️Tune into my music and surf the different-yet-connected platforms at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ScoobertDoobert.pizza⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🍕⁠Pick up my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠new LP "I" on vinyl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ in its full spinning colorfulness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ while they last 🎨Connect with John on his:✏️ ⁠⁠⁠IG ✏️ SubstackScaffolding of goals. It’s achievable, it’s doable. That’s when good things happen. A reflection of existence as a human. It’s a spell. Ingenuity. It’s a beautiful thing. The magic is among us. It’s about people. Kinda ripe to be told again. Invigorating. Brave and cool. Continue this legacy. Create a little creative borrowing. Those are the things. Like a wave at the beach. Is this kinda moment of discovery. Get a groove going. Make it feel real. It’s either like it is or it ain’t. Ambrosia. Everything’s getting into everything. There’s this unconscious thing. Learning about that was incredible. Well and good. That gravity. A pretty strange and amazing thing. Delight. In a pluralistic idea towards a common goal. Like collaborate. Make a win-win for both things. Growing together. By design. That is what it is. It’s like love music more, love people more. Be the wellspring of so much great music. Kinda this endless hypnotic thing. Absolute magic. People need to hear it. Very much just taking care of each other. Put it all together. Hafta figure out a way. Getting in the boat and rowing. That is fun. It’s this constantly feeling. What is the set and setting. Designing towards an end. Really met the moment. Bend the world. A reimagining and an elevation. 𓊍Edited by Rebecca SansomSet Design by Max HorwichPodcast Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Beformer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
