Episode 53 - Mike Mattison
Friday, 20 March, 2020

Joining us for Episode 53 of The Music Chat Podcast is Mike Mattison. During the intro to this episode, you were listening to the song "Deadbeat" from Mike's latest album Afterglow. I caught up with Mike a few weeks ago, before things started getting crazy in the world and particularly in the world of live music. If you are not familiar with Mike, he has built a successful career as a songwriter and vocalist, beginning with his early days fronting Scrapomatic and The Derek Trucks Band, and currently with Tedeschi Trucks Band. He has won two Grammy Awards, and contributed highly acclaimed material as a songwriter on the tracks Bound for Glory and Midnight in Harlem with TTB. Mike's new album finds him exploring different genres of American music including country, soul, and Americana with varying vocal styles. During this episode, Mike and I discuss how he became a lead vocalist after starting as a bass player, his musical influences, and what it is like to be a part of one of the hardest-working, most talented live acts in the country with Tedeschi Trucks. I would like to thank Mike for being our guest for this episode.
