Listen "66: Adam Schatz (musician, presenter)"
Episode Synopsis
For a such busy guy, Adam Schatz manages to watch more television than you might imagine. At least, that's what he says. Known to some as a music presenter, co-producer of the Winter Jazz Festival in New York (held every January in downtown Manhattan), saxophone player in an array of local bands ranging from free improvised ensembles to Afro Beat and dance music, and leader of the band Landlady. Apparently he also takes pictures. We met recently just as he was setting off on a cross country tour with Landlady. Their most recent album had come out just as Winter Jazz Fest wrapped up, so he was in the zone and ready to talk about his thoughts on the scene in New York, his process for writing and producing music, and why it's important to make your grandparents laugh. Along the way he explained to me why I need to leave my house more often. www.third-story.com
