Episode 57 - Elena Pinderhughes is one of the most sought-after musicians in today’s vibrant jazz scene. From touring with legends like Herbie Hancock, Common, and Chief Adjuah to performing the iconic “Mask Off” with Future on the Coachella Main Stage, Elena has already brought the flute to a new level. She’s a prominent figure in this wave of brilliant young musicians rising within the new jazz world.
The first time I heard her play flute, it was alongside the jazz world’s GOAT, Herbie Hancock, and I immediately knew she was different. Her sound didn’t just complement something already iconic—she elevated it. Since then, I’ve seen her perform with Terrace Martin, Lalah Hathaway, Snarky Puppy, and so many more. I wanted to understand how she’s achieved so much at such a young age.
I’d boil it down to these things: Intention, mind set, dedication, and a strong support system with her brother, Samora Pinderhughes.
Elena talks about her journey—from being a teenage jazz star to becoming a first-call collaborator across genres. She shares stories about working with Herbie Hancock, Chief Adjuah, Esperanza Spalding, Robert Glasper, and Josh Groban, diving into the lessons she’s learned and how she’s crafted her unique sound. We explore the modern jazz scene, how she’s making her mark, and how she balances artistry with building a thriving career.
Elena Pinderhughes is a trailblazer in both jazz and pop culture, and there’s no question—her career is only going up from here.

Episode 56 - Dave King of The Bad Plus.
The Bad Plus is one of the world’s most exciting and innovative ensembles. Over the past 20 years, they’ve created a groundbreaking sound that blends jazz and avant-garde music in a way that’s uniquely their own—beautifully melodic, dark, twisted, soft, loud, simple, and incredibly complex, all in one.
Their drummer, Dave King, is one of my all-time favorite drummers. Creating a distinctive and instantly recognizable voice on an instrument is rare, but Dave achieved that right from their debut album.
Dave joined me in the studio to discuss the story of The Bad Plus—their beginnings, the feelings of success, their mindset and approach to writing music, and the process of creating their now-iconic cover songs. We talked about meeting artists like Aphex Twin and Black Sabbath, whose music they’ve covered, and hearing their reactions. We also dove into performing on Jools Holland, touring with The Pixies as a jazz trio, their new album Complex Emotions, Dave’s hilarious web series Rational Funk, and much more.
We hope you enjoy this fun and insightful conversation with the incredible Dave King!

Episode 55 - Quincy Jones was one of the most important humans in the history of music. At 91 years of age, we sadly lost the legend this week. Quincy touched us all in so many ways. Beyond his music and boundary-breaking life, Quincy was a friend, advisor, and investor to Jammcard. His support meant the world, changed our lives, and inspired us beyond explanation.
We’d like to take a moment to honor Quincy and share stories from the podcast of friends and collaborators of his, in hopes that it makes you smile, reflect, feel good, and learn even more about the amazing man he was. In this episode, we have stories from John JR Robinson, Michael Bearden, Ibrahim Maalouf, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Daru Jones, Jason White, Jeff Gitty, and our host, Elmo Lovano.
We hope you enjoy. We love you, Q.

Alayna Rodgers and Alana Linsey have toured the world and performed on TV as background vocalists with artists such as Anderson .Paak, Steve Lacy, Raphael Saadiq, Harry Styles, Madonna, John Legend, The Masked Singer, and many more. They're the electric duo that's been on stage singing background vocals with Anderson .Paak, and now they're stepping to center stage with their own artist project, GAWD.
They just dropped their album Cathedral City Supreme and are going on tour with Anderson .Paak, pulling double duty by both opening the show as GAWD and singing background vocals with Anderson. We talk about how the project came together, stepping out and taking the risk of focusing on their artist project, developing their sound, working with producer (and drummer) Stanley Randolph, and much more.
We've loved Alayna and Alana for years, and now we love GAWD! Hope you enjoy this interview with them, and make sure to check them out everywhere. GAWD is awesome.

This week's episode is with the AI music team, Dadabots. The co-founders CJ Carr and Zack Zukowski, are musicians and computer programers that have built an AI music system that creates original music through neural networks and machine learning. It is able to generate new songs and beats in the style of any artist, any genre, and even can create new genres.
