Continuing the conversation about a fantastic new album, Father Son!A mix wonderful, wonderful treatments of standards and originals, as well as one cover that I don’t think I ever heard in the world of jazz.  this is one that belongs in any respectable jazz library, and the conversation was both informative and fun. Lots of laughter.

Father Son - from Nathan & Noah East, out for just a little over a month now. David Fleming speaks with both Nathan and Noah, with 95% of the conversation on the new album. Several incredible original mainstream jazz compositions. Outstanding covers as well including Killer Joe, Over the Rainbow, My Favorite Things, Yesterday, and more. A personalized treatment puts it mildly. Some of these have such an incredible touch on them that you would think that they weren’t covers at all.

Golda Zahra has been immersed in the world of opera since she was four. A polyglot, she’s able to capture nuance in performances which others may not be able to attain. It’s not ALL classical and operatic with Golda though. She also loves jazz, pop, broadway standards… even Madonna.Having returned from Italy close to a year ago, where she continued her studies with amongst the most elite, Golda now has a series of concerts going from near the end of May through the summer. The first one is free and is coming up rather soon. David Fleming speaks with Golda about the series of concerts as well as a bit of her past.

David Fleming speaks with Andy Timmons about his newest release, Recovery. A mostly instrumental, guitar-driven album with MANY layers, textures, colors... Every release from Andy or The Andy Timmons Band has been outstanding... this one is no exception.

On this edition of KVC-Arts David Fleming speaks with Andy Timmons about his 2025 release, Recovery, just out. Like Electric Truth, this is a mostly instrumental album with many moods, layers, and color to take you to and through SO many places. Kicking off with a tune written for Jeff Beck and flowing from there. We'll also hear about a piece he had written with Peter Frampton in mind… then ended up having Frampton perform ON it!

David Fleming speaks with Tim Keeler, music director for Chanticleer. We'll hear about the history of the group, a few performances coming up in the near future in our region, as well as the role of the countertenor.

David Fleming speaks with jazz saxophonist Jessy J. about her 10th studio release, TERRANOVA. There's a feel of Latin Jazz through much of the release - though this isn't the exclusive sound. We'll also hear about an upcoming online concert as well.

On this edition of KVC-Arts it's David Fleming in conversation with guitarist Lee Ritenour. You’ll find him MAINLY in the world of jazz, with around 35 or so albums under his own name, also as part of the GRP All-Star Big Band, the group Fourplay, and other projects. We'll hear about Ritenour’s latest, along with Dave Grusin, called BRASIL. Also, helping Pink Floyd, or rather specifically, David Gilmour – at a point when he was absolutely STUCK trying to figure out what to do at a point in one of Pink Floyd’s MOST well-known tunes.

With over 30 albums under her name, David Fleming speaks with Eliane Elias about her latest, Time and Again. It’s a collection of eight original tunes, three of which existed previously, but were reimagined for this recording. On this album, she explores various concepts of time… The past, the future, how we use time, good times and bad times…  several wonderful, wonderful guests on this album as well. It has a side one and side, two feel, which is natural as it has been released on vinyl in addition to CD. We also hear of her recording with Chick Corea... what would turn out to be Corea's last.
