  • The Season One finale of Sounds From The Cellar. Our guest is the incomparable, Lalah Hathaway.

    Ms. Lalah is undoubtedly one of the greatest singers, interpreters and vocal technicians of this or any generation. Hailing from musical royalty, she has blazed her own legendary trail with a career that boasts as much variety as it does longevity.

    We talk about growing up in a household with musical powerhouse parents, her diverse musical interests, that famous performance when she sang a chord with her voice(!!!!) with Snarky Puppy, new levels of confidence, her upcoming record and much more.

    The performances on this episode, including an exclusive acapella version of her Dad, Donny Hathaway’s trademark “A Song For You”, left us speechless…

  • This week on Sounds From The Cellar, we return with another in our series of Podlings - shorter episodes that let you know the band a little bit better.

    This week, we do a little something different. Nick sings his beautiful take of Billie Eilish’s Oscar winning song from last year’s blockbuster, Barbie.

    Which should be a nice reward after you listen to a bunch of dudes talk about the movie and it's impact…

    “What Was I Made For?” written by Billie Eilish and Finneas.

  • This week on Sounds From The Cellar, our guest is NYC Hip-Hop legend, Peter Gunz. It doesn’t get more entertaining, charming or disarming than Pete…

    Always an open book, we talk to Pete about it all: from his chart-topping days with Lord Tariq to his complicated TV stardom in Love & Hip-Hop NYC. We get real about growing up in the Bronx and tough family matters.

    Pete is family (oh, and future correspondent for the show!) and this episode will get your sides splitting, your heart pumping and your HEAD BOPPIN’!

  • This week on Sounds From The Cellar, we return with another in our series of Podlings - shorter episodes that let you know the band a little bit better. Next up, it’s the legendary Mike Davis.

    What can one say about the man? Legit one of the best male vocalists you could wish to hear, with a career and stories to match. We talk about his life in music, from his beginnings in church to his arrival in the village and record deals and beyond.

    Treat yourself to his rendition of the Stevie Wonder classic, “For Once In My Life” at the end of the episodes. Mike brings out easily one of the band’s best performances to date on the pod. Enjoy!
