Joining me is composer Brian Tyler, whose original score for Nuremberg has earned Oscar shortlist recognition and a place on the BAFTA longlist. He joins us as part of our Hollywood Film Composers Series, presented by The Jeremiah Show with Executive Producer Carol Connors.

 

Brian is an award-winning composer, multi-instrumentalist, and conductor with a career spanning more than 100 films and music that has grossed over $17 billion worldwide. In this conversation, we focus on Nuremberg?directed by James Vanderbilt?and the weight of scoring a film that confronts the Holocaust and the trials that followed.

 

Brian explains why he had to start decades earlier, musically tracing the film's history back to the 1930s before writing a single frame. That process became a six-hour symphonic backstory, shaping themes of memory, justice, and empathy, including difficult choices like incorporating bell tones associated with the camps.

 

The discussion then turns deeply personal, as Brian shares how completing Nuremberg coincided with surviving a life-threatening double brain hemorrhage?an experience that reshaped how he thinks about time, purpose, and responsibility. It?s a conversation about music as moral witness, and how a score can carry history into the present tense.

In this episode of The Jeremiah Show, Grammy-winning guitarist and composer Janet Robin sits down with Jeremiah for a wide-ranging conversation about the moments?and mentors?that shaped her life in music.

 

Janet shares how guitar became her ?security blanket? as a kid, and how studying one-on-one with Randy Rhoades (as his youngest student and the only girl in his class) gave her both technique and confidence?especially his insistence that students develop their own sound.

 

From her early years playing clubs in L.A. with the all-female band Precious Metal (and the whirlwind of being discovered and signed young), to being handpicked by Lindsey Buckingham for a demanding ?guitar army? tour that sharpened her discipline and pushed her toward solo work, Janet traces a career built on hustle, professionalism, and creativity.

 

She also discusses coaching Jennifer Jason Leigh for The Hateful Eight, the unforgettable story behind the film?s famously smashed vintage Martin, and the full-circle Grammy win with The String Revolution for their instrumental ?Folsom Prison Blues? recorded at Cash Cabin with John Carter Cash and guest guitarist Tommy Emmanuel?plus what?s next, including new releases, touring, and a blues project drawing from Library of Congress recordings.

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Alan Ward

Milwaukee-born rapper and songwriter Alan Ward joins The Jeremiah Show New Year's Eve for a candid conversation about craft, identity, and what it really means to build a career the hard way?fully independent, one record at a time. 

He?s been called a torchbearer of the golden era of rap, transporting listeners back to the glory days of backpack rap. He?s known for combining modern hip-hop with old-school heart, sharing self-discovery, independence, and perseverance in his powerful lyrical rhymes.  He explains how he hears ?words as music? and why honest storytelling still matters in an algorithm-driven era. 

 

From growing up in Milwaukee?s sharply divided neighborhoods to his new life in Baltimore, Ward reflects on artistic integrity and the discipline of staying true to himself by avoiding shortcuts in the industry. 

 

The episode closes, premiering Alan Ward?s latest single, ?Great Time? featuring 4 The Brotherhood?a new chapter in his evolving sound.

 

?Rappers like Alan Ward are carrying the torch for Milwaukee, even from outside of the city? ? Radio Milwaukee.

This episode is dedicated in loving memory to Chris Liechty.

*Originally Aired in 2022

 

Christmas comes early on The Jeremiah Show as we welcome back one of our most requested holiday guests ? the sibling trio Girl Named Tom.

 

Caleb, Bekah Grace, and Joshua return after a whirlwind year on the road, with more than 100 tour dates behind them and a brand-new Christmas album in hand. Their latest release, One More Christmas, sets the tone for a heartfelt conversation about family, faith, music, and what the holidays really mean when you?ve been living out of a suitcase.

 

Before winning Season 21 of The Voice, all three siblings were on a very different path ? including plans for medical school. They formed a band instead, naming it after a childhood nickname Joshua gave his sister, Bekah. Since then, they?ve made history as the first trio ever to win The Voice, built a devoted fanbase, and continued carving out a sound rooted in harmony and honesty.

In this holiday special, we talk about the journey, the sudden fame, life on tour, and the stories behind One More Christmas.

It?s a warm, reflective episode ? perfect for the season.

He paid off his first trumpet on layaway, lived in a roofless tool shed in L.A., and never stopped moving forward?David Longoria's story of beating the odds and overcoming life's challenges. 

 

In this episode of The Jeremiah Show (Hollywood Composers Series with executive producer Carol Connors), Jeremiah D. Higgins talks with Grammy-winning trumpeter, composer, producer, and songwriter David Longoria. David shares the true origin story behind his career?growing up in Renton, Washington, raising goats and chickens, learning music through volunteers at the Salvation Army, and earning his first trumpet through a year-and-a-half layaway deal that became his ?ticket? out.

 

David describes busking in Seattle?s public market as a kid, writing letters to public figures long before email existed, and arriving in Southern California at 17 with so little money he lived in a roofless tool shed for three years while building his career. From early gigs to major stages, he explains how hustle, preparation, and community support shaped everything that came next?including film scoring, chart success as a trumpeter in the dance world, and his 2025 Grammy win.

 

The conversation also covers David?s deep commitment to mentorship, his large-scale ?We Are One? project, and his work with Carol Connors on the Grammy-nominated audiobook Elvis, Rocky and Me, narrated by Kathy Garver. It?s a motivating, behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build a life in music?and how giving back can be part of the mission.

Adrienne Laswell is 14, and she?s building a magazine meant to help her generation think for themselves.

 

Adrienne Laswell, a young writer, is launching an online magazine called TITLE. Her goal is simple: help teens understand art, music, and culture beyond what social media algorithms keep pushing to the top. Adrienne explains how trend culture works at school and online, why it can feel overwhelming, and how it encourages people to perform an identity rather than live honestly.

 

The conversation digs into Adrienne?s idea of ?constant performative living,? and why she believes it can contribute to anxiety, social pressure, and the breakdown of real connection. She also shares why she?s drawn to philosophy, especially Albert Camus and absurdism, and how those ideas can help young people deal with the search for meaning without feeling trapped by it.

 

Jeremiah and Adrienne also discuss her writing on modern rap, including her piece on dark or satanic imagery. Adrienne makes a clear distinction between symbolism and literal belief and discusses how controversy, branding, and attention can shape aesthetics in music. Throughout the interview, she comes back to the same point: young people need more perspective, more context, and more room to think.

 

TITLE is set to launch in early 2026, and Adrienne hopes it becomes a place where teens can discover ideas, learn how to ask better questions, and feel less controlled by the feed.

?Dedicated with love to Lola and William Bayonas? 

 

Laura Bayonas is a Spanish-born actress, filmmaker, and best-selling author whose creative voice was shaped by the cultural freedom and artistic rebellion of La Movida Madrileña, the post-Franco movement that redefined Spain?s film, music, and art scene. 

Her career began remarkably early?she appeared in a TV commercial at age four and, at seven, played her first lead role in the acclaimed short film Correo de guerra (1972), directed by Augusto M. Torres. 

Over the decades, she has continued to work across film, theater, and literature, building a body of work rooted in emotionally driven storytelling and character-focused craft.  She recently appeared in the FX/Hulu/Disney+ show English Teacher.

In recent years, she directed and produced the Oscar-qualifying short film FAREWELL (completed in 2024) and is currently developing the feature screenplay Upon a Time, a biographical film about her beloved son William Grubb Bayonas, scheduled for 2025?26. Bayonas continues to bridge European cultural history with deeply human, contemporary narratives across multiple creative disciplines.

In this episode of The Jeremiah Show, we revisit the cultural moment of 1996 and the ?now-stalgia? wave bringing 90s music back into the spotlight. Donna Lewis reflects on the real journey behind ?I Love You Always Forever,? from years of piano bars to hearing crowds sing it back for the first time. David Lowe shares how the 90s shaped his most creative years?both as the mind behind iconic BBC News themes and as Touch and Go, whose hit ?Would You?? became a global club classic.

 

Then we bring Donna and David together to talk about their long-running creative partnership and the new body of work they?ve built over time: Wanderlust. They break down how their collaboration stays pressure-free, why imperfections can be the ?soul? of a track, and what ?home? really means in their new single, ?Coming Home.?

Composer and pianist RIOPY joins The Jeremiah Show to talk candidly about his life, career, and creative process. He shares his early childhood growing up in a restrictive cult, where music was forbidden ? and how he secretly taught himself composition on a piano he wasn?t allowed to touch. That experience, he explains, shaped both his discipline and his emotional connection to music.

 

RIOPY discusses his escape, his path to becoming a Steinway Artist, and key moments in his career, including Chris Martin of Coldplay purchasing a piano for him. The conversation also covers his work composing for major global brands such as Mercedes and the Calm app, hitting a billion streams, and extensive worldwide touring.

 

He explains how many of his piano pieces are written to align with the human heartbeat, his work on a meditation app currently in development, and his upcoming album, Be Love, releasing January 16.

The Jeremiah Show airs on Radio Evolve Santa Barbara on Monday - Friday, 10 am - 12 pm - #TuneIn! -  https://radio-evolve.rocks/

 

 

*Dedicated in loving memory to Eddie Palmieri, the legendary Latin jazz pianist and bandleader, who was born on December 15, 1936, in Spanish Harlem, New York, and passed away on August 6, 2025, at the age of 88, at his home in New Jersey after an extended illness. He was a pioneering figure in salsa and Latin Jazz, known for blending Afro-Caribbean rhythms with jazz, and was the first Latino to win a Grammy. 

 

The Legendary Hollywood Film Composers Series, brought to you by The Jeremiah Show and Executive Producer Carol Connors, Featuring Howard Drossin

 

Step inside the creative world of Howard Drossin, one of the most versatile composer-producers working in film, television, and video games. From his early days as Music Director at SEGA to scoring iconic titles like Sonic & Knuckles, Comix Zone, Afro Samurai, and Splatterhouse, Drossin has built a reputation for blending orchestral depth with punk, metal, hip-hop, and jazz.

 

In this exclusive interview on The Jeremiah Show, Drossin discusses his genre-bending approach to composition, his long-running collaboration with RZA on The Man With the Iron Fists films, and his newest work on the acclaimed feature Highest 2 Lowest by Director Spike Lee. He breaks down his process, the emotional architecture behind his music, and the moments that shaped his career as one of today?s most innovative storytellers in sound.

 

Whether you?re a fan of film scores, game soundtracks, or behind-the-scenes Hollywood craft, this deep dive into Howard?s work offers rare insight into a composer who continues to redefine modern scoring.

 

TAKEAWAYS

 

Why he steps away from the studio, goes on walks, and replays scenes in his head to diagnose musical problems.

 

Practical craft lessons for young composers

 

How to avoid ?blank-page paralysis,? why getting anything down is better than waiting for perfection, and why ego has to stay out of commercial scoring.

 

The Herbie Hancock principle: letting music lead

 

What it means to ?let the music go where it wants to go,? and how following musical inertia can override rigid theory or school rules.

 

Why imperfection gives music its soul

 

How live, analog performances from the  ?60s??70s shaped his ears, and why he believes some modern hyper-edited, perfectly tuned work has lost that human character.

 

How video game and theme-park loops shaped his writing

 

Writing long, repeating loops with minimal voices taught him economy, concise melody, and sensitivity to listener fatigue.

 

The real story behind his Sega break and Sonic-era work

 

How a boring game-testing job, a cassette tape, and one phone call from a Sega VP launched his career as a game composer.

 

How Highest to Lowest was built musically from the inside out

 

Why he recorded the score ?old school? with everyone playing together, how the end-song arrangement grows as David imagines producing Ayanna, and how genre mashups (Glasgow jazz trio + LA folk singer; Eddie Palmieri in the parade; the chase cue) came together.

 

How character and theme are woven into the score

 

Howard?s view that David King?s core flaw is a lack of empathy, and how he tried to express that in the music very subtly rather than with obvious musical ?signals.?

TAKEAWAYS

 

How classical composers like Rimsky-Korsakov and film composers like John Williams shaped his artistic DNA.

 

Why orchestral ?color? and emotional storytelling drew him into composing.

 

He considers himself a lifelong student of music and studies new composers constantly.

 

How walks, silence, and stepping away from instruments help him solve creative problems.

 

His belief in simplicity: removing notes rather than adding.

 

How feedback ? especially from Spike Lee ? has sharpened his instincts.

 

How his wife, a visual artist, contributes to his process and narrative instincts.

 

His unexpected entry into video game scoring and how a single phone call from a Sega VP changed his life.

 

Long-Term Collaboration with Spike Lee

 

How Spike challenges him to be better and gives him freedom with clear direction.

 

Making Highest to Lowest

 

How the final end-title song (with Aiyana-Lee) was recorded live on set and constructed musically.

 

How each musician contributed: Fergus McCreadie, A$AP Rocky, Norm Lewis, Jensen McRae, and Eddie Palmieri.

 

He tells young composers: "Put something down. Trust yourself, but be open.?

 

?Let the music go where it wants to go.?

 

Why Highest to Lowest feels like his ?call-up to the majors.?

 

Highest 2 Lowest, Director: Spike Lee. Producers: Todd Black, Jason Michael Berman. Screenplay: Alan Fox. Starring Denzel Washington, A$AP Rocky, Ice Spice, Jeffrey Wright, Dean Winters. Distributed by: Apple TV, A24 https://a24films.com/

Along the way, they detour into World Cup jokes, stories from the road, the legend of Belichick?s hoodies, and what it really takes to flip the ?light switch? between violent Sundays and real-life kindness.

 

Thanksgiving food gets just as much love as football, from Persian Fesenj?n and sweet potato pie to turkey, gravy-on-everything, and Jeremiah?s mom?s famous pies. The episode closes with shout-outs to Tim?s hit series Sprung on Amazon Freevee and Tehran?s ?Tehran Thursdays? at the Laugh Factory, wrapping a show that?s equal parts football talk, food, and pure comedy chemistry.

Bay Area powerhouse Keldamuzik joins me for a high-energy, unfiltered conversation that dives deep into her world of music, fashion, and fierce independence. From her genre-bending hip-hop/R&B singles to her global touring and TV hosting work on Diva Talk Tonite (now streaming on Tubi), Kelda opens up about the grind, the glamour, and the mindset that built her empire.

We talk about the early days of her career, the creative fire that drives her, and the moment she realized her voice carried more than rhythm ? it carried influence. Kelda also shares the story behind Tamz Berets, her bold fashion line redefining confidence and self-expression with every stitch.

In this interview, Keldamuzik brings the heat: her honesty, her hustle, and her signature swagger. Whether she?s breaking barriers in entertainment, uplifting her community, or turning a classic beret into a cultural movement, Kelda proves once again that she?s unstoppable.

If you?re an artist, a creator, a fashion lover, or anyone ready to level up ? this is an episode you don?t want to miss.

 

Through her partnership with HairToStay, a portion of every Tamz beret helps cancer patients afford scalp-cooling treatments during chemotherapy.

 

Style meets strength.

 

Tamz by Keldamuzik ? empowering confidence, supporting healing, one beret at a time.

In my conversation with blues-rock powerhouse Kathryn Grimm, we explored the relentless evolution of an artist who refuses to stand still or repeat the past.

 

Kathryn opened up about the creative fire behind her latest Blues/Rock EP?now submitted for consideration for the Grammy and Blues Foundation Awards?and the deeply personal journey fueling her upcoming 13-song album, set for release in early 2026. 

 

From her ?Santana-esque? playing style to her reputation as a vocalist who ?sings like an angel, plays guitar like the devil,? Kathryn shared stories from a life spent learning from legends, lifting up students, and carving out an unmistakable sound that is entirely her own. 

 

Our interview revealed a seasoned artist in full command of her craft, balancing grit and grace as she moves into one of the most inspired phases of her career.

?The coolest thing about being a musician is every single experience I have ? even the worst ones ? I?m like, well, at least there?s going to be a song that comes out of it.? - 

 

- Nicole Sophia on Vulnerability

 

Jeremiah interviews Nicole Sophia, whose just-released debut album, Feral, captures the raw, untamed spirit of rebirth. With poetic honesty and cinematic soundscapes, Nicole invites listeners into a deeply personal journey of courage, heartbreak, and self-discovery.

 

They explore the making of Feral?a record born from vulnerability and wild truth?and the freedom that comes when an artist fully claims her voice.

 

Nicole Sophia?s music reminds us that to be ?feral? is not to be lost, but to finally be found?authentic, unfiltered, and alive.

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Lee Holdridge 

The Legendary Hollywood Film Composers Series

Brought to you by The Jeremiah Show & Executive Producer Carol Connors

 

?Before the first note is played, there is silence ? and within that silence lives Lee Holdridge?s genius.?

 

Discover the mind behind some of Hollywood?s most beloved scores.

In this episode of The Jeremiah Show?s Hollywood Composers Series, host Jeremiah D. Higgins sits down with Lee Holdridge, the Emmy Award?winning, Grammy-nominated composer celebrated for his richly melodic work on Splash, Moonlighting, Beauty and the Beast, and his collaborations with Neil Diamond (Jonathan Livingston Seagull).

From his early days in Costa Rica to the scoring stages of Hollywood, Holdridge explores how silence becomes music, how melody tells a story, and why true composition begins in the space between the notes.

Listen as Jeremiah and Lee discuss:

The hidden power of silence in film and life Composing iconic themes that endure through generations Collaborations with Neil Diamond, Al Jarreau, and Plácido Domingo The art and discipline of film scoring in an age of constant noise

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Shelita

 

"You want to do the hardest thing first."

 

Shelita is an international pop artist whose journey blends resilience, reinvention, and music that elevates our collective consciousness.

She has been featured in NPR, Forbes, and Rolling Stone. 

Her songs have reached millions of streams worldwide, she?s charted on Billboard, and her music has connected with audiences from all over the world.

Her EP Special reached #10 on Billboard and #3 on iTunes, and her single "Penetrate" climbed to #14 on Billboard's Next Big Sound chart.

Shelita won a prestigious Hollywood Music In Media Award, appearing alongside industry legends like Quincy Jones and Dianne Warren. She has been named an "Artist to Watch" by NPR Music and was featured as a spotlight artist at SXSW.  She has performed over 150 shows across Europe, Asia, and Africa, making her a true "musical citizen of the world.?

Shelita?s path was profoundly altered by a skydiving accident in Seychelles that left her facing years of recovery, isolation, and multiple surgeries. In the depths of uncertainty, she turned to two lifelines: freediving and music. 

The ocean gave her freedom, and music reminded her that vibration heals. Out of this union came not only recovery but an entirely new chapter in her artistry, one rooted in resilience, transformation, and depth.

Shelita?s story is not only one of survival. It is a living example of how art and the human spirit can rise, reinvent, and inspire.

 

Now, Shelita returns with her most powerful body of work yet, Into the Depths, arriving in early next year.

THE JEREMIAH SHOW - Featuring Martin Porter & David Goggin, authors of Buzz Me In: Inside the Record Plant Studios

Buzz Me In: Inside the Record Plant Studios

The Record Plant was a groundbreaking recording studio that revolutionized the recording experience and became a legendary name in music history.  In 1976 alone, the studio produced three No. 1 albums: Stevie Wonder?s Songs in the Key of Life, the Eagles? Hotel California, and Fleetwood Mac?s Rumours.

With over thirty Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees and more than 100 Gold, Platinum, and multi-Platinum albums credited to its name, the Record Plant studios have left an indelible mark on music history.

 

As Carlos Santana aptly put it on a visit to the Sausalito studio, "This place is more important than the Vatican.?

 

Based on Chris Stone?s memoirs, archives, and interviews with over 100 studio employees, music producers, and recording artists, the new book by Martin Porter & David Goggin Buzz Me In: Inside the Record Plant Studio, offers a thrilling ride through a decade of high drama, hedonism, high tech, sex, drugs, and rock n roll and the musical genius behind it.

This show is dedicated in loving memory to Brian Wilson 

June 20, 1942 ? June 11, 2025

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring David Leaf, Author of SMiLE - The Rise, Fall & Resurrection of Brian Wilson

David Leaf is an award-winning writer, director, and producer. 

He is also a professor at the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music in Los Angeles, where, since 2010, he has been teaching courses in rock documentary, songwriting, and the Beatles.

He published the seminal work The Beach Boys and the California Myth in 1978, which was recently updated and reissued as God Only Knows: The Story of Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys and the California Myth. 

Through the writing of the biography, David developed a deep friendship with Brian Wilson.

Smile - The Rise, Fall & Resurrection of Brian Wilson is the story of Brian Wilson's legendary SMiLE album.

The story of SMiLE is a story unlike any other, perfect for music that was - and still is revolutionary.

This is the first book to tell the full story of Brian Wilson and SMiLE, including the details of the original SMiLE recording sessions, their increasingly legendary status, and the final release of the album, as well as the accompanying concerts, film, and its afterlife.

With over two dozen new interviews and generous excerpts from his extensive 2004 interviews with Brian Wilson, this book recounts the story of SMiLE through the perspectives of those who were present in 1966 and those involved in its 2004 revival, including all members of Brian Wilson?s band. 

This book, featuring a foreword by Melinda Wilson and an anthology of essays from SMiLE historians, devotees, and music professors, is the definitive resource on the subject.

"The man is my hero. I love him. I weep when I hear his band. I hear him sing. I love him." ?Sir Paul McCartney

?If I had to select one living genius of popular music, I would choose

Brian Wilson.? - Sir George Martin

"The only real pop genius in the world..." ?Sir Elton John
