That led me to one of my all-time favorite albums, <em>High Hat<\/em>, by his then former band, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.6stringdrag.com\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">6 String Drag<\/a>. There is so much soul and musical diversity in that album \u2013 Americana that wanders from New Orleans to Texas, a bit of punk, with a ton of swing and bounce. Roby continued that roving sound on his solo albums, and I have remained a fan ever since. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hA6P7q10B6A\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I was happy when the band got back together a couple of years ago, and I\u2019m even more happy now that it has stuck. Earlier this year, the band released a re-mastered version of High Hat plus a great new album called <em>Top of the World<\/em>. It was the perfect opportunity to catch up with Roby and talk about the new album and High Hat. When I catch up with Roby, he has just gotten off work, and we talk about the work-life balance of an independent artist. As you\u2019ll hear later in the interview, Roby is working hard at tipping this much more toward the art, which isn\u2019t easy, even for someone with as wonderful catalogue as he has. One of the more interesting parts of the conversation came when we talked about internalizing influences, sounds, and riffs, and how impressionable your creative brain can be. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to be careful,\u201d says Roby, \u201cif you listen to bad music, you\u2019ll write it.\u201d We also talked about how some of the best music is meant more to be felt than understood. Explaining a song, as we talked about, can be like trying to figure out what the Mona Lisa is thinking. <\/p>\n<p>Our featured track this week comes from a new album from Domenico Lancellotti. Lancellotti, son of composer Ivor Lancellotti, is a multi-instrumentalist who has played with the likes of Gil Gilberto and Caetano Veloso, will release his solo album The Good Is A Big God on May 11. Enjoy this preview of the lead track, \u201cAsas.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>You can listen to and download the podcast from the player below, or subscribe\/review on iTunes, Stitcher, or Google Play.
